Well, if it's all the same to you, omlo, I honestly wasn't showing off. I was never good at pretensions, by pen or by real life.
And if my style seems familiar, it's probably because I am NOT a seasoned writer yet. Most writers starting out usually need to adapt existing styles from favourite authors so I imagine it will take a long time for my own unique style to finally distill from this.
For that I hope not to be judged too harshly.
Thanks for your critique.
