...I... I think everyone's back to normal.

[Her voice is weak and tired.]

I am. For some Mayfield-ish value of 'normal'....

And... paper boys deliver the newspaper. Right?

You okay? Shit, you sound all sorts of strung out.

Uhhh...what's a motherfuckin' newspaper supposed to all be again?

I am all sorts of strung out. [She groans.] I should maybe call everyone, and apologize if I broke anything of theirs. Or worse.

[She was trying to be funny, trying to append a 'heh' at the end, but... no, it wasn't quite working.

The paperboy business was something nice and distracting.]

It's... paper. With news on it? Newspaper. Primitive, but... well. Mayfield. There you go.

[He laughs anyway.] Aww, it's cool, sister. I'm sure everyone'll all get their understand on.

...so I'm supposed to be chucking it at starmonkeys in the morning? I don't really get it.

I hope so. You can't always be sure that people will be sympathetic and understanding. Hard feelings are so easy to have...

[That gets a laugh from her. It's tired, but it's still a laugh.] On their porches. Not at them, or they'll be upset.

Many, many jobs don't actually make much sense. We do a pointless task, and then they give us money. I wouldn't think about it too hard.
