His
contact
with
Cooper
became
almost
comfortable
.
They
never
grew
completely
friendly
.
(
If
Cooper
could
have
brought
himself
to
make
advances
,
Harlan
might
not
have
known
how
to
respond
.
)
Nevertheless
they
worked
well
together
,
and
Cooper
’
s
interest
in
Primitive
history
grew
to
the
point
where
it
nearly
rivaled
Harlan
’
s
.
One
day
Harlan
said
to
Cooper
,
"
Look
,
Cooper
,
would
you
mind
coming
in
tomorrow
instead
?
I
’
ve
got
to
get
up
to
the
3000
’
s
sometime
this
week
to
check
on
an
Observation
and
the
man
I
want
to
see
is
free
this
afternoon
.
"
Cooper
’
s
eyes
lit
up
hungrily
,
"
Why
can
’
t
I
come
?
"
"
Do
you
want
to
?
"
"
Sure
.
I
’
ve
never
been
in
a
kettle
except
when
they
brought
me
here
from
the
78th
and
I
didn
’
t
know
what
was
happening
at
the
time
.
"
Harlan
was
accustomed
to
using
the
kettle
in
Shaft
C
,
which
was
,
by
unwritten
custom
,
reserved
for
Technicians
along
its
entire
immeasurable
length
through
the
Centuries
.
Cooper
showed
no
embarrassment
at
being
led
there
.
He
stepped
into
the
kettle
without
hesitation
and
took
his
seat
on
the
curved
molding
that
completely
circled
it
.
When
Harlan
,
however
,
had
activated
the
Field
,
and
kicked
the
kettle
into
upwhen
motion
,
Cooper
’
s
face
screwed
up
into
an
almost
comic
expression
of
surprise
.
"
I
don
’
t
feel
a
thing
,
"
he
said
.
"
Is
anything
wrong
?
"
"
Nothing
’
s
wrong
.
You
’
re
not
feeling
anything
because
you
’
re
not
really
moving
.
You
’
re
being
kicked
along
the
temporal
extension
of
the
kettle
.
In
fact
,
"
Harlan
said
,
growing
didactic
,
"
at
the
moment
,
you
and
I
aren
’
t
matter
,
really
,
in
spite
of
appearances
.
A
hundred
men
could
be
using
this
same
kettle
,
moving
(
if
you
can
call
it
that
)
at
various
velocities
in
either
Time
-
direction
,
passing
through
one
another
and
so
on
.
The
laws
of
the
ordinary
universe
just
don
’
t
apply
to
the
kettle
shafts
!
