Also, the feel of a copybook page heavy both sides with ink writing, and all the little notes scribbled on the cover. I even remember some of them.
"One day everyone will pay"
"Think they're so smart"
"
How much to kill someone?"
and so on.
The little stick figures in pools of red ink with various weapons jammed in them were of course completely unconnected to these.
