After the US election results, Diane Duane posted a comment on her Tumblr saying
‘Entropy is running: run faster’, and it sort of spawned a fanfic?
Nita watches the election results pour in, heart sinking steadily as states on the map turn red. Her dad and Dairine have forgone sleep as well, watching with bated breath and unhidden dread. Nita’s knitting needles click quietly, gleaming with Speech light. The work reminds her of building her charm bracelet, what feels like so long ago, and it’s a similar thing. This isn’t to hold spells in a matrix, but it’s spells worked into knitted cloth to hold warmth, to give a small sense of comfort, to keep the rain off and hopefully offer some protection, although that bit of the spell is less reliable. It depends on what the harm coming your way is.
