Discussion Notes: The Rat King Find this weeks story here: The Rat King Next weeks story is Attitude Adjustment by Tim Gautreaux Rated: Adult themes without Adult Language Well… this was an odd one for sure. Surprisingly or perhaps not surprisingly, Maya was the only one who enjoyed The Rat King. This story, about a woman who finds herself drawn to the rat king, lent itself to interesting discussion. In this episode, we discuss the structure, characterization, lesbian drama and the juxiposition of these two very different relationships. Don’t forget to rate the story!
