Library [09/14]

Rory opened the library a few minutes early, sweeping in a bit rain-splattered and windblown, but actually smiling.

She settled herself behind the desk, and after straightening the sign displaying the new aides, set to work rereading her favorite passages from The Complete Dorothy Parker.

Rory was engrossed in her book, as well as her breakfast - a banana nut muffin that was being consumed in tiny, tiny bites so as to be wary of crumbs.

And now she was still reading, and winding a lock of her hair around a fingertip.

She'd moved on to Savage Beauty: the Life of Edna St. Vincent Millay at some point, and was deeply wrapped up in the words.

Rory was sort of on a poetess kick today for some reason.

She was carefully scrawling notes in the margins, and hoping that Ms. Readman or Willow wouldn't come along and chastise her for this bad habit.

The library was closed unless you had pressing need to be there. Rory didn't, really, but it's not like she was prying herself away from her book and her lunch of Alphabits in a ziploc.

And now that she was done reading about Edna St. Vincent Millay, she'd picked up The Bell Jar, just to keep with the theme.

Woe, for Rory was not in the library for sixth period, and was instead off poking at a Sith Lord. No, class hasn't been posted yet. I'm just guessing. *g*

And now she was back.

Again with the not looking her happiest.

"Hey, Rory," Bridge says, as he comes in to the library. "Here and reporting for duty." He actually almost salutes.

Yomiko came in and said brightly, "Good morning, Rory."

"Hey, Bridge," Rory replies with a smile. "Congrats, by the way. As you can see, library aide stuff is totally hard work. Really. Do I get to train you?"

"Good morning, Ms. Readman!" Rory replied cheerfully. "How are you?"

"Oh, I'm just fine," Yomiko said. "Er, you're not going to be talking like a dog, are you?"

Lucky for anyone with library-ish needs, Ms. Readman is here and not poking a Sith Lord.

Rory looked at her funny. "No...why?"

"Unless you'd rather foist the job off on someone else?" Bridge says, smiling back.

Rory sighs in a very long-suffering way, and marks her page. "Nah, I'm good for it. Okay, first things first."

She holds up her book, smirking a little in spite of herself. "This? Is called a book. They live here!"

"Oh, Angela was practicing speaking Dog yesterday. I was afraid something was wrong with her at first." Yomiko opened the door to her office and frowned at the folded paper thing on the fax machine. She didn't remember making an origami monster the day before...

"...I totally knew that part already." Bridge says seriously.

"Oh, no, I only speak human languages, mostly," Rory assured her, oblivious to anything in the office. "So there might be random French or Spanish, but no Dog or Cat or anything."

"I was hoping they knew that already," Yomiko called from inside her office.

"I like to be thorough," Rory says, getting up. "Okay, no, seriously, come back here and I'll walk you through the card catalog and stuff."

"Oh? Have you read any Dumas?" Yomiko asked. "I generally find that things are so much better in the original language."

"It's always good to check!" Rory called cheerfully.
