This phrase "none other than another one of us" was so fun to read lol. Like a fun tongue twister. Love this short story!

I agree with what Osasuyi said above: I thought there would be a much more sinister ending. I was happy for it to work out the way it did. What a fun story, Claire!

Way to rock a prompt, Claire! I don't think I'd want to meet seven of me on an elevator. Though it would be an opportunity to try on a bunch of hair colors. 😂

I thought it would have a sinister end, but I was pleasantly surprised 😊

This is very good - nicely paced and good humoured but with undertones of something more menacing yet to discover - reminds me of the start ofan old sci fi story, Bradbury or Ballard maybe I was really dissapointed when it stopped and thats a rare event

Hilarious and awesome concept. Strangely sinister but you kept it fun and lighthearted. Aquariums of all things! Well done!
