- The next day, Kiriel feels gravity on his body, which is a new sensation since he's used to floating around without a body or gravity in hell.
- He says good morning to Peanut, who still doesn't like Kiriel much. Oh well.
- Kiriel tries to pet Peanut, but he gets scratched instead. Cats, man.
- He wonders if Peanut knows that he isn't Shaun, and if he is just a reflection of the Creator somehow.
- He's never thought much about animals before, but he sees why people like them; before he got scratched, he noticed Peanut's fur was soft.
- Kiriel thinks about how the Creator made humans with certain desires, but when they want to act on those desires—envy, greed, laziness, you name it—they get damned.
- How unfair is that? Kiriel thinks the whole system doesn't work.
