Thanks, that was fun to do - as deliberate abandonments of the rules of English styling in order to convey an effect often are, I find. I wanted to try and put across the sensation that the whole thing was kind of accelerating out of control, and that Azalynn's reactions to it were being felt much more than thought, because there wasn't really time or bandwidth to think. This is why the whole thing is one giant multi-paragraph run-on sentence, a construction technique that would, I think, have caused my 11th-grade English teacher to suffer some internal bleeding. :)
