   Summary

   and every wave is tidal
   if you hang around, you're going to get wet
   I can't prepare for death better than I already have
   -- Elliott Smith, "King's Crossing"

   We are currently in Chapter 7: Discovery Day -- Jean and Rada at the Weep show -- Pryce and Gorki-Berdyayeva talk personnel issues -- Rada B makes a proposition -- Trant and Jean meet Rada and Alice at a concert -- Jean and Trant consider toothbrush symbolism -- hetero-sexual life partners share a kiss goodnight-- different hetero-sexual life partners share a different kiss goodnight -- Harry has a contingency plan -- Rada, in her own words.

   "I understand why you don't trust me. But, Jean-Héron, I am not a *monster*. I did not feed you to the fucking Can-Opener. I would never."

   ...

   Falling in love with your best friend would fuck up your whole life.

   You are so lucky it didn't happen to you.
