Yolcaut (Rattlesnake) watched the news with me and when it was over he said some enigmatic things to me, First he said:(p21, American softcover edition)
“Ah, they suicided her.”
And then, when he'd stopped laughing:
“Think the worst and you'll be right.”
Sometimes Yolcaut speaks in enigmatic and mysterious sentences. When he does that it's pointless to ask him what he means, because he never tells me. He wants me to solve the enigma.
Before I went to sleep I looked up the word prestige in the dictionary. I learned that prestige is about people having a good idea about you, and thinking you're the best. In that case you have prestige. Pathetic.
يروقني الفرنسيون لأنهم يخلعون تيجان الملوك قبل قطع رؤوسهم. بهذه الطريقة، لا ينبعج التاج ويمكنك ان تضعه في احد متاحف باريس او ان تبيعه لشخص يمتلك مالاً كثيراً
They said it might have been suicide or murder, because she never used to go into the tigers' cage. We don't use our tigers for suicides or for murders. Miztli and Chichikuali do the murders with orifices made from bullets. I don't know how we do the suicides, but we don't do them with tigers. We use the tigers for eating the corpses.
