716, "School of Velocity"...being played.......MB is right on, surely, that when C. stops to hear it is when a good thing happens---
Yashmeen turns the corner and they remeet.........................................
TRP seems to be very against "too much velocity', so to speak, in our modern world........and loves music
so he has made a little joke here?....esp. if they exist in time [see Yashmeen's remark] which they and music do......
717..."secular gravity"..........Cf. passim
717..."Venedig in Vienna".....Cf tourism in V....
717....'He would have done anything.....restored to her impossible ways".......C.'s genuine goodness---wanting another to be happy
as herself despite the problems that presented him......C. a bit of a saint?
718 ..."only complaining in a recreational way, or do I mean therapeutic?"
Love the psychoanalytic jokes.................
Cannot remember whether this is past or still coming up hence a spoiler alert?
Did the crowd of silent workers moving past---"the return of the repressed"---remind anyone of the mysterious figures
around the unnamed catastrophic event(s)?......
