The sheaf of pages is written in slightly childish script, with marginalia doodles accompanying its content as if to illustrate. Reading it gives a warm, hopeful feeling.

The book with no title (cw: war violence) is strangely heavy, for its size. Also, when he opens it, there is the strange sensation of receiving the emotions associated with the memory as an impression, albeit not a vivid one.




...and also, there's a quiet clatter, and out of the corner of your hearing, you think you hear a childlike giggle and the pitter-patter of footsteps. But if you turn to look—there's no one there.

[WHY ARE HIS EMOTIONS DOING THINGS WITHOUT HIS PERMISSION AGAIN!!! This is uncomfortable. Also he doesn't understand any of this. ALSO SOMEBODY WAS THERE AND NOW THEY AREN'T? This is so much.

This is so much he's just going to put the books back on the shelves and go to a different section. Maybe Essays will make more sense.]
