Some things stand because people refuse to let them fall.
The Round Table was louder than usual—the kind of morning where the coffee hadn’t even settled and already three stories were competing for space. Earl dropped into his chair with a clatter, and something metal fell out of his coat pocket and hit the floor. Mabel raised an eyebrow.

How Gull Lake Built a Town with a Well, 200 Trees, and a Lucky Census: 1910
