Maddie L'Engle sure knew her shit.

A Wrinkle in Time is a fantastic book, I agree.

Read it twice. Think I need to read it again 'cause she didn't mention the flaming arrows.

Why would something not in the book matter?

Because, genius, it matters when they're flyin' at your head and the only hope you have is that the island you're on decides to go to some time where they ain't.

Yes, I deserve your sarcasm because I'm supposed to know about where you live and your flaming arrow problem.

Whatever. All I'm sayin' is that it'd been nice to have the flaming arrows in the book. Least I woulda been prepared for that shit.

... Who?

Madeline L'Engle. Wrote A Wrinkle In Time. Feels like I'm livin' it.

Never heard of her. Or the novel.

Yeah, can't imagine lotta people have read her. She's... well, I thought she was a wack job, but guess I was wrong.

It's a pretty good read, if you're interested in time travel.

Oh, yeah. Fantastic author.

Eh. I thought she was crazy. Turns out she just lived on Craphole Island, too, I guess.
