for those wondering why i'm revising i also want to quickly share this beautifully ironic highlight from the original version of the chapter:
He lowered his head closer to the paper, re-reading his work to make sure that he hadn’t made any stupid mistakes. “To be fair, you did just randomly start taking while I was working.”
me in 2018 really wrote "don't make any stupid mistakes" and immediately proceeded to make and publish a stupid mistake
