a horror story about playground lies and where they come from and why children think they need them.

edit several days later: I dunno, like I gave kind of a quick one-sentence pitch but there's really something... magical about this game. It guts you in a way that's hard to describe. It has this sense of unreality, through the viewpoint of children trying to understand and succeed through unfair rules. I'm still ruminating on it basically constantly. It cuts deep.
