Okay, I would just like to say: whoever left the above comment re: second person is missing out, because this story is exquisitely done. Second person narrative is hard to carry off, and you've managed it beautifully here. Now that I've read this, I can't think of any other way it *could* be written, not really. The way you handle their separating consciousnesses, the way you balance the use of pronouns until the way they handle their own definition is its own kind of trauma--it's just lovely, the whole thing. Thank you :D
