FIELD OBSERVATIONS — SUBURBAN TUESDAY, APROX. 14:20 Subject A (male, mid-40s) employs right hand on Subject B's left scapula. Pressure: 2/10. Effectiveness: 1/10. Subject B (approx. 14 yrs) maintains a lean angle of 23° away from destination. Rain saturation of jacket: 60%. Willingness saturation: 0%. At the threshold, a standard residential doorway (810mm) appears to have narrowed to the approximate width of an ethical dilemma. Note: The package on the front step has been measured three times. Each measurement returns a different, larger number. The tape measure is not broken. The package is simply becoming more of itself. Canine units (x2, breed: indeterminate, morale: extreme) have established a perimeter around the courier's last known position. The courier has not been seen since. His dolly remains upright on the pavement, slowly filling with rain. Books observed through window: all open, all face-down, all on different chapters of the same problem. Weather: diagonal. Expected to remain diagonal for the foreseeable.
