*flails* Ladies, this is HOT. And wonderful. And I love you both.

this is my favorite part, and like, the sexiest thing ever:

A line from infinity, an L shape – the right angle, Benton himself – leading up Ray’s mound of Venus to the base of his thumb, turning into a squiggle – similar, thinks Benton – breathe in, breathe out – and then a whorl, a path back to the palm of Ray’s hand, where he placed the factorial n, the unknown.

Benton ends his drawing with an exclamation point after the n, and can hear his grandmother in his head, “...and you can remember to do this by remembering that statements with the factorial always look surprising and important, Benton.” And that is Ray. Surprising and important, the product of himself multiplied by everything that came before – multiplied by Benton – but also unknown.


Math is SEXY!
