"It takes practice," Willow said. "Especially depending on the kind of footnote. If they're not formatted properly it's just chaos."

"So the first step in the war against chaos is making sure everyone has a Chicago Manual of Style? Conner guessed.

"And if they don't pay attention? They get hit with it," Willow said.

"Good motivation," Conner declared. "Those things hurt."

"Especially if they're in hardcover," Willow agreed.

Conner saluted her solemnly. "Then I appoint you general and quartermaster of the anti-chaos army."

"Why thank you!" Willow said. "Do I get stars?"

"Yes," Conner said. "And bars, and gold piping, and that what's-it-called shoulder thing."

[OOC: Ooo! With the Chicago Manual of Style?]

"Ooo - I like the shoulder thing," Willow said. "It manages to be formal but not untouchable, you know?"

"Plus you can put things on it and carry them around if you have to. It's functional!" Conner added.

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2006-10-31 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
"Like your keys!" Willow agreed.

Conner laughed. "And then you'd be jingly and shiny while you walked around!"

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2006-10-31 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
"Plus never get locked out!"

"Well, good. It'd be bad for morale if the general got locked out anyway."

"Nobody'd want to follow them. Especially since you couldn't get inside where you were going anyway."
