Reading Recommendation (Patreon)

Because she was raised in a very sheltered space where she was often the smartest (or at least the most talkative) voice in the classroom, Honey has a teeeny habit of assuming other people aren’t quite on her intellectual level. Mal is Topher’s sleepy-eyed roommate who seems to be a bit of a layabout (quite typical for a feline, Honey thinks), but Honey likes her anyway, and would like to recommend her a wonderful introductory work from her very favorite author! Something to stimulate Mal’s brain just a bit better than Topher’s rantings or their dreadful dope-smoking, goodness!

Mal is almost twice Honey’s age and has a Ph.D, not that Honey would know that. Still, she hasn’t set foot on a university campus in ages, she’s a little rusty at dissecting literature, but she’s always down to have a good discussion with a friend. Honey, meanwhile, hasn’t actually cracked open the book since high school and is feeling just a teensy bit out of her depth.

Mal: yeah I don’t have a real opinion on that sorry

Mal: *gives a two hour lecture*
