This Explains A Lot

[drcpunk.livejournal.com]

I've started reading Lords of Summer, a supplement for Changeling: The Lost. There's a brief paragraph on the changelings of NYC, a rather small group. The authors blithely state that nearly all changelings can drive, something I, for one, would never take for granted. However, I was enchanted by what followed.

In order to help each other out and to have a logical reason to spend time with each other, the changelings of my fair city have bought themselves a small taxi company. So, the first job a changeling who escapes through the thorns and the hedge to NYC is likely to get is taxi cab driver.

I wish I had a camera to take a picture of the expression on jlighton's face when I explained this to him.

Also, any Pynchon fans out there reading the Changeling supplements? Am I the only one who thought of W. A. S. T. E. when reading the section on changelings choosing symbols by which to identify their groups?
