Anonymous asked: hey, bowman, does jacob ever complain about his homework/schoolwork?
“He doesn’t really complain. Jacob isn’t a complainer. I think a lot of it is blasted weird, though. It’s not enough he has to read all kinds of strange things. He has to write what he thinks about them, and that can be wrong somehow? I don’t get human ‘school’.”
“I’m supposed to figure out the subtext and stuff, dude. That’s hard to get right sometimes.”
“But it’s supposed to be what you think it means! How can you be wrong about that? It makes no sense!”
“I think you’d make class discussions pretty fun. Wanna come to school with me after break?”
“Absolutely not!”
