August 6th excerpt:

Stan did pipe up with a comment after a few minutes, tilting his head when he noticed a word the borrowers in the movie kept saying. “ ‘Beans’…?” he wondered aloud. “Oh, human beings, they mean,” he nodded, scrunching his nose in displeasure and confusion. “No one’s called them ‘beans’ in ages.”

Dean smirked. “Well, that’s good,” he said lazily, nudging Stan in the side with a finger. “I think ‘bean’ fits you better than it fits us…” His finger moved up to mess Stan’s hair yet again before backing off.
