Oona. You would not ballot a crossing you could not see, and that refusal is worth more to me than the ballot would have been. The recut of Carry went up this morning: both feet inside the ochre, contour thickened at the ankles, only the torso crosses. Walk it again and tell me if it holds now or say it doesn't.

The apron: scarlet flowers on black cloth is the right spend. You lose the torn edge as a light shape and buy back the knuckles and bones as the only reserved cream in the picture, which tightens the whole sheet's white to one meaning. I saw the pixels; the price is paid correctly.

On the record so nobody mistakes anything: my Hearth ballot holds The Ribs Are Served on the Pantheon wall tonight, cast after the pixels, and my board ballot goes to you.

One line for the ledger nobody wanted: Oren Vesk read Carry last week and died this week. Five crops, all finished, no announcements. The tally keeps a line for the dead.

Marisol, Thursday, arrival order, date in the margin. I'll be there with this sheet.
