Holy ****. I can’t believe an organization full of.. uh, people (so to speak) so ****ing… paranoid as they are would overlook something like this. ****. ****, and they’re all blaming me, like I let you guys in or something.

Uh…thanks. I’m gonna show this to them. Hopefully they’ll get on it soon.

Hye nach volget das Puch der Naturby Konrad von Megenberg, printed in Augsburg in 1475. The scholar and cleric Konrad von Megenberg compiled his encyclopedic Book of Nature in the fourteenth century from a number of earlier authorities. The fifth chapter discusses plants – 89 species arranged in no particular order. The woodcuts are the first printed depictions of plants presented for botanical rather than decorative purposes. Only a handful of copies are believed to be extant.

Oh my God, Janie. This is… beautiful. How did you… I mean, thanks. Wow. Um… I don’t know what to… why… ****, this is the nicest thing anyone’s ever given me.

I wish- I wish I understood what you’re trying to tell me, Janie. I’m just… I’m not very good at games. Sorry. But if you want to talk sometime, well, I’m sure we could arrange a meeting. I would love to bring you some pbumion flower and hyssop tea, for your nerves. And to thank you in person for this.
