"“What sort of epidemic was it?” He tapped his pencil’s eraser against his desk three times. “It wasn’t clear. A high fever, very tricky. People would say the oddest things, they’d rant and rave, they’d have convulsions, they’d attack each other. People would get sick, they’d die, then all would be well, and a few years later again the mystery illness would strike.”" — 1 hour, 1 min ago

"Solo lei si muoveva in sintonia con i propri pensieri. Sui volti tesi che la circondavano c'era la consapevolezza che la leggenda fosse rivolta a loro. La leggenda parlava di loro. Forse era la loro. Forse era un'allusione al rituale estivo. Si, la storia li eccitava. E allo stesso tempo erano inorriditi dall'eccitazione che la storia aveva suscitato in loro." — May 24, 2026 03:01PM

"«Finisce qui tra noi due, piccola?»
«Non lo so», gli disse facendo uno sforzo perché non le tremasse la voce. «Troppo presto per dirlo.»
«Se dovessi dire la mia», ribatté lui, «direi di sì. Oggi ha dimostrato due cose. Una è che una donna in buona salute può correre lontano.»
«Ti chiamo», disse lei.
«L'altra è che i bambini vivi per un matrimonio sono un collante. Quelli morti sono un acido.»" — May 18, 2026 02:05PM
