If sniffing books makes you mentally unstable, I’m long gone.
Apropos of nothing, how did it take me this long to notice that Lord John Whorfin in Emilio Lazardo is a shadow out of time? Who knew Buckaroo Banzai is totally Lovecraftian?
The scent of old books will always trigger happy memories for me. For Yithro, it is discovering the human senses have unique applications.
Sandalphon: *sniffs* Something smells… evil.
Aziraphel: Ah, that would be the Jeffrey Archer books….

Yep. Nothing “Intelligent” about our Design, that’s for certain.
