Do you even know what a bookmark is?

...but okay. I'll take it.

Of course I know! I just didn't think that thing was still following me--!

You have fun with that!

I'll say the same to you.

. . .

There's a here!

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

[half-distracted by goat]

What, just one?

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

Soldier's entire being is a contradiction, yes, but I mean another thing! Something that doesn't match!

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

What are you even talking about?

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

Just. . .look! Soldier's mother is Queen, right? We all know that. But skip down to the last paragraph.

""

Queen then says Soldier won't be the but he'll be the oldest.

Do you see what this means?!

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, that King's kind of a lech, huh?

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

. . .yes.

But since Queen isn't his wife, who is? Have we even met her? And why is she called Queen if she really isn't?

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

That's a mystery all right, but you forgot the most important question.

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

...ah. Scowl beat me to it.

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

I don't think that's what the writer intended. . .

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

Who cares what the writer intended? He probably just screwed up. [shrug]

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

I doubt it, since it's pretty detailed. . .admittedly, Soldier's not a reliable narrator, but still.

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

[passing by on his way to the library or something]

Who cares? You don't need to fucking yell about it!

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

I'm not yelling! And I care. Maybe this isn't completely useless--I mean, why bother saving such a stupid story?

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Because someone wanted a goddamn bookmark.

[crazylikeavulp.insanejournal.com]

It did do a pretty good job of reminding me where I was in the story.

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

[s-sob]

W-well yes, but before it became a bookmark. What if someone had saved it to look back on, and another person stumbled on it, thinking it was a waste of a paper, and turned it into a bookmark?

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Or maybe the original writer realized it was a waste of paper and turned it into one themselves.

[lawfulreception.insanejournal.com]

But I would hope they'd realize that before taking the time to write all this out. . .
