Everybody has a soul." I turn to Pelly. "And that means you, too." "I'm not so sure of that, " he says. "What does it feel like?" "Having a soul?" I look at Maxine, but she only shrugs. "I don't know, " I tell Pelly. "I don't have anything to compare it to- you know, what not having a sould would feel like." We fall into a kind of awkward silence. I don't know about the others, but I'm working on what a soul is and not coming up with a whole lot. I mean, I just always thought of it as me- what I feel like being me. But surely Pelly feels like himself, so that means he's got a soul right? But if that's not your soul, then what is? It's weird and not something you really think about, is it? . Charles De Lint
