Talk:The Freedom in a Syringe/@comment-4849011-20140914002128

I found this story unsettling because it's about someone caught in a situation that he can't control. We see the narrator start off resolute and then lose both sanity and hope until he is willing to do whatever his captors desire of him to end it. Some of the descriptions are crude, but I can understand that the narrator's being honest in describing his reality. I think this could be classified as a Science Pasta too because it seems like some kind of terrible experiment. The narrator's admission of his guilty past makes it seem that this might be punishment for the terrible things he did. Then again, how do we know what's real? Maybe there really are hundreds of other rooms like the one he's in, or maybe he's just hallucinating that there are. Maybe he really did do those things he admitted to doing, or maybe he hadn't and his captors only convinced him that he had. All in all, it's unsettling.
