"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

My word. This must come under the definition of torture.*

*My view may be affected by the tennis lessons at school lasting all of half an hour, which totally did.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

John Isner and Nicolas Mahut are currently at 6-4,3-6,6-7,7-6,39-38.

How does one get a 3-6 set? Wouldn't you stop at 3-5? And what about the 6-7/7-6 sets? I thought you had to win by two.

No, you have to reach 6.

And what about the 6-7/7-6 sets? I thought you had to win by two.

That indicates a set that was won by a tiebreak. They reached 6-6 and then had to play the tiebreak.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They reached 6-6 and then had to play the tiebreak.

Yeah, at Wimbledon you can tiebreak except in the fifth set.

eta: Although, theoretically, the tiebreak can last forever, since you have to win by two points. And any game can last forever, since you have to win by two points. So there's a lot of eternity in tennis.

Wow, they're threatening to stop for the day. Isner wants to keep going, Mahut wants to stop. The audience wants them to keep going.

Oooh something's happening. Talking is occurring.

Will they settle it with rock, paper, scissors?

If they call it tonight when will it restart tomorrow?
