About
They're drinking lemonade from tall icy glasses, sprawled on a blanket under a tree behind Lindsay's mum's house with an old leather-bound book two inches thick and a Nintendo DS, both abandoned. Pip is resting his head on Lindsay's thigh, and both of them are deciphering patterns in the clouds and the maze of sun-drenched leaves overhead. It's like being back in Cambridge, Lindsay said, those endless summer days when the heat became too much and even he couldn't bear to be in the library. His fingers are idly playing with a bit of Pip's hair as they talk about everything and nothing.

"Shoes and ships and sealing-wax," Pip murmurs. "And whether pigs have wings."

"Mmm." Lindsay leans back against the tree trunk with a lazy smile. "It always makes me think of Richard."

"Richard who?"

"Richard II. 'Let's talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs ... and tell sad stories of the death of kings'. The rhythm of it."

"Shakespeare can suck my dick."

"I'd break his neck."
