In which a game of ping pong results in several discoveries.

Another chapter where I’m pretty sure I’d have more to say if I was reading for the first time, instead of (a) re-reading and (b) familiar with what the authors have had to say about the sexual orientations of their characters.

Although, having said that, I can’t remember now whether I was particularly surprised when I did read this chapter for the first time. If I wasn’t, it probably owed something to how matter-of-factly the sequence of events is told; there’s no attempt to make a big deal about where it goes, and I for one appreciate that.
