As we speak, I'm in the car and on my phone (not driving, I promise. Just slowly making the other half curious about the Downs. He read one page of the GT and told me to tell everyone they're wolves. I told him he'd make a good cobbler...).

Yes, but unfortunately I don't speak it except some very basic phrases. It's from a Eivřr Pálsdóttir song, í tokuni.

I ❤ Eivor. Saw her performing live some years ago and it blew me away

She's really good.

I do recommend listening to her to anyone who hasn't heard of her yet.

Me neither. Sounless Boro has pulled a double bluff on us I guess it's Rune, or... or I've got no clue whatsoever.
I just had a horrible thought: What if Steve is innocent, but the wolves are killing off everyone who suspects him just to mess with us?

Well now you do have a bit of jealousy from me! That must've been wonderful to see.

Also, welcome Shasta! We don't have to vote for each other anymore.
