I was thinking about this yesterday--I can't remember if I read your story first and then commented about the dance between words and picture, or if commented first and then read... but during the afternoon, I kept flashing back on your story and the space between words and picture.
You know what's so awesome (to me as a reader) is that in your story, since we don't see Seth or the darkness (personified), all the screenshots seem to be from the perspective of the narrator--as if we're inside their mind looking out.
I have to be really careful when I read your story, because my perspective tends to be really fluid, and it would be so, so easy for me to get lost within the POV character.
