Thank you, Justin, not only for the congratulations, but for your suggestion. Submitting it to Tim wasn't even in my thoughts at the time.

Thanks for reading and commenting, Kim! Hope your travels are going well.

Twisty endings on these tiny tales are fun when they surprise me while drafting the story. "Oh! Look at that!" I'm glad the final sentence appeared, first, and then the rest of the story evolved.
