Really fuckin’ brilliant, ain’t it?

Keiko/Judy is simultaneously pubescent and agressively womanly , her shapely yet slender legs spilling out of a tiny tartan schoolgirl kilt, to vanish, mid calf, into shoved-down, bunched up cotton kneesocks of an unusually heavy knit. Cayce’s cool-module, wherever it resides, has always proven remarkably good at registering the salient parameters of sexual fetishes she’s never encountered before, and doesn’t in the least respond to. She just knows that these Big Sox are one of those, and probably culture specific. There will be a magazine for Japanese guys into big socks, she’s sure of it. The big socks go into retro faux-Converse canvas, but with platform sole to balance the very sizable bulk of sock-crunch around the ankles, giving Keiko/Judy a knees-down look recalling a baby Clydesdale. [...]

She [Cayce] knows too much about the processes responsible for the way product is positioned, in the world, and sometimes she finds herself doubting that there is much else going on. But this is a mood, she tells herself, a bad one in its low-key way, dealt by soul-delay. Somewhere that lagging part of her is being wound in, and her job here is simply to walk, to be in London and let her body know that she is here.
