(Let’s start with the epitaph.)

(Oh no. Categorically no. This should become well-established as an adventure story before anybody ever dies and anything ever changes.)

(But it’s a beautiful quote!)

(You mean the epigraph.)

(Yes, let’s begin with the epigraph. And don’t tell anyone I

(It’s called a malapropism.)

(I know!)

(And by the epigraph, are you suggesting the quote by Ezra Pound?)

(So?)

(Not to mention a damned fascist?)

(Don’t you like the quote?)

(I like the quote very much. I love the quote.)

(… (?))

What thou lov’st well shall not be reft from thee.

(Yes, just like that. That’s the perfect epitaph.)
