"God's bodykins, man, much better: use every man after his desert, and who should 'scape whipping?"
It seems to have been a night for anxiety dreams. I dreamed I was back in college, with sovay and someone else as roommates, and my bookcase fell down on my bed and I despaired of ever getting the books back up. Also my teddy bear appeared to have been decapitated (I think this was independently of the bookcase falling down). For once, however, I was not worrying about any exams.
The dream sovay had edited a translation (by someone else) of a medieval poem, apparently solely to make fun of how bad the translation was. (On waking reflection this would not be at all a nice thing to do. In the dream it was merely funny.) It was a very peculiar poem that ended in some sort of orgy. Said orgy may have been an artifact of mistranslation. The poem did not include any unicorns as far as I can remember, but I only skimmed it. It had been published in a slender paperback with the cover photo being an odd selfie of dream-sovay's torso (clothed, don't worry) reflected in a window, which I thought very unsuited to the book.
