It is raining in the Entomologist’s room and the clouds are bumping against Malar’s forehead like bundles of wet cloth. The butterflies are under the sink, shaking the water from their wings.

“It’s almost done you know,” says Malar. “All I have to do is get him out of the room.”

“You’ll never do it without a killing jar,” says the Cobweb Butterfly.

“I don’t need a killing jar. Besides, he won’t fit.”

“It’s not that hard,” says the Shoe Brush Butterfly. “Everything in this world can fold, you know.”

Malar doesn’t think she will be able to fold the Entomologist that far. Even if she does she has a feeling he will break the bottle.

“I really don’t think he will fit,” she says.

“Nobody fits into a killing jar,” says the Cobweb Butterfly. “They have to be put.”

The rain begins to pound into Malar’s skull like a shower of gravel. She wonders if she will catch a cold.

“Well good luck,” says the Shoe Brush Butterfly. “Good luck from both of us.”

The butterflies dip and soar into the thunderstorm like tiny slips of paper.
