The “logical continuation” of the trope combination exercise I did on Monday. By which I mean, not very logical. Thanks to ghostlightning for his comment on the Monday post, which inspired me to keep going. Hopefully he doesn’t mind that I cannibalized his comment … >_>

Sather Tower is an ivory campanile, surrounded by grass as lush as the minds enshrined within the institute.
