Cat in the Rain - It was short, but well-done, both mechanically and in terms of keeping my attention.
The Man Who Knew Belle Star - McRae's a cool character and Belle Star is a psycho, McRae goes from unsympathetic guy to oh-man-sucks-to-be-you mascot, premise was pretty interesting.
A&P - What happened, but the description was top-notch and great and all, but it did seem somewhat random, especially at the end.
Demonology - Whoa, this was fantastic, amazing description and the whole objective tone and narration of her life coupled with what we know the narrator is feeling is so wow.
Demonology was great, and I'm really looking forward to this class if we get to read stuff like this everyday. I doubt they'll get longer, but hopefully they will? Cursed speed-reading. And yet another pitiful attempt at second-person, part of the "looking-for-something" piece we have to turn in later.
Your eyes are a hub of furious activity, swiveling in their sockets as they focus in on what is not present. Your hands are a frenzy of activity, diving into the deep swells of the black leviathan, bravely darting in and out of the maw of the beast. A grimace, as your eyes scan the fruits of your painstaking task, trinkets of little value retrieved from the depths of the monstrosity that you thought had swallowed them whole. What you are searching for, though, the artifact which you have an immediate need for, is not amongst these trinkets of trivial importance. Steeling yourself, you brave more than just hand and fingers as you charge once more into the looming maw of the beast. Your efforts are for naught, and you are beaten back out with nothing at hand but defeat, and was the beast mocking you? You hastily retreat, surrender the field to win the war, and swear to yourself to prioritize the purging of the beast in the near future. And this is in no way related with the uneasy thought of having provoked the beast without being sure of its guilt in swallowing your artifact, of course not.
