Tink appeared in the open door again, his wings rapidly moving, and in his hands he held a... slingshot? Oh sweet baby Jesus take the wheel. Where did he get a slingshot? Off of Amazon? That didn't matter. The brownie had taken the time to paint his face. One half was red, the other blue. He looked like he wandered off the set of Braveheart. I mouthed the word no at him.

In a surprising moment, Tink, the impish character, bursts into the scene holding a slingshot. His fast-moving wings and the unexpected weapon create a sense of chaos and disbelief. The narrator humorously wonders about the origins of the slingshot, playfully suggesting he might have ordered it online. The absurdity of the situation is only heightened by Tink’s face paint, which splits his features into a vibrant half-red and half-blue, making him resemble a character from the film Braveheart.

The narrator's reaction to Tink's antics encapsulates both trepidation and amusement, as they silently communicate their disapproval by mouthing the word "no." This interaction highlights the whimsical and unpredictable nature of Tink, who often brings a blend of mischief and humor to the plot. Despite the initial surprise, it is clear that Tink's playful spirit is an integral part of the story's charm, showcasing his eccentricity and the dynamic between him and the narrator.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
