I had been browsing only a few days talk in the thread turned to Pippa's jannies, and that a young fellow named Archive Bro, a pleasant, soft-spoken chap who had been sweeping for Phase less than a year, was surely Pippa's favorite jannie. I remember that I looked at the dark head that was always buried in his archiver and thought, “That’s how it’s done. It’s simple and sweet. You sit at your desk and keep turning it out. If you’re just a little better and if you turn it out more than most people are willing to give, you’re made.” I found myself looking up frequently at Archive Bro’s dark head and feeling grateful to him for getting me started so early on the right track. Perhaps it was because I looked at Archive Bro so often that I became aware that someone else was doing the same thing, a little pasty-faced fellow who sat on the other side of the room. His name was Granthh and he smoked a great deal, not nervously, but deliberately and slowly, as if he were testing and evaluating each cigarette. Some thirty days later, when the new discord logs leaked and Granthh was revealed as Pippa's favorite jannie and new best friend, I was one of many who walked around with blank faces and raised eyebrows.
