jakeandamir: Jake’s Birthday

Impressive! They kept up the joke that Jake is becoming like Amir, without letting it get stale. I’m starting to treat this like a dramatic serial, hoping that they have a plan that will get them to the end of a long character arc. Reminds me of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld books (a fantasy satire series), which started as romps, fell into a comfortable but eventually cloying pattern, then broke out as honest-to-god realistic-character novels.
