Library [11/06]

And that was that, then. No more Halloween decorations, no more eerie sounds playing in the background. No more plotting tricks to take the place of treats in Jonothon's absence of a lower jaw.

And reading to do, for class, because he had been entirely out of sorts on Monday and he had to read up on Buddhism to make up for the utter daze he'd been during Lady Ghanima's lecture.

At least he was in the proper place for it.

"I'm the wrong person to ask," Didi said. "I like stuff. It tends to kind of collect around me. Not big stuff, I just .... y'know, one day you have one hat and a month later you look up and you have 15 and hats are your thing."

"I think where they have a point? Sometimes people forget stuff is just stuff. It'll hurt when you lose it, but you have to sometime anyhow."

//Mmm,// Jono agreed, and then he lifted his shoulders in a shrug and put the book down again. //So long as they're talkin' about stuff, and not people, I suppose that makes sense enough. Losing a person might cause suffering, too, but it's better to have loved and lost...//

He waved a hand, vaguely. Blah blah, everybody knew the whole quote, then.

"Way better," Didi said. "I think they mean it about people, too. They're just wrong."
