INSANELY GOOD READ (and also one of my craziest fuckin' reads): "The Hunt" by PasDuTout.
(game) dark!joel and dark!tommy miller compete after you. other than cordyceps, there are additional supernatural forces in the story.
You and Joel and Tommy Miller share a dirty little secret. The three of you are trapped in an endless game of hide and seek. Once a year, you must come out to play. The rules are always the same: you hide, they seek. And if they catch you, they get to do whatever the fuck they want to you.
it's only 33.7k words, but i feel like i was taken on a wild journey. similar to the wendigo!joel story, the plot was magnificent and perfectly detailed-- not too much, not too little. allows for the reader to fill in the blanks.
reminded me of ready or not-- specifically what i would want the danforth's to do me ;)
