Date: Aug. 25th, 2022 03:48 pm (UTC)I've just gone and listened to the last few minutes of that one, and I can see how you missed it—between the reader's attitude (I'm not good at tone, but it doesn't seem to me like there's much of Lucy's spitefulness there) and the continuous reading of an audiobook not giving you time to pause, glance back over the words you've just read and go, 'Wait, does she mean...?', the dark ambiguity of the ending as written doesn't come across at all well.
