Library [11/20]

[agentthepaper]

Yomiko opened the library on time and, inspired by that crazy girl she'd met over the weekend, took several bartending guides off the shelf to read during the day. What bartending guides were doing in a high school library, she wasn't really sure. Some sort of research for papers on the dangers of underaged drinking, maybe?

Hermione frowns, and asks, "Why?"

"Well," Yomiko flailed. "So you can make friends?"

Re: Sixth Period

"I have friends," she says. "They're across an ocean and living eleven years back in time, but I have them." She no longer finds this weird.

"That's a long way from here," Yomiko observed. She didn't know why she was doing this; it wasn't like she could talk.

"That's more than I probably should have," Hermione points out, and she doesn't actually have a problem with this. "I'm at school to learn, not to socialize."

"It only gets harder as time goes on," Yomiko said softly.

Re: Sixth Period

[smartestone]

"But then I'll get to go back," she says, but she's frowning a little now.

Re: Sixth Period

"Well, yes, that's true," Yomiko agreed.

Re: Sixth Period

[smartestone]

"I have people I can talk to," Hermione tries.

Re: Sixth Period

[agentthepaper]

"That's good!" Yomiko said brightly. "I remember when I was your age--um. Well. Okay, look, my one friend turned out to be an evil clone of Mata Hari."

Re: Sixth Period

"Well?" she asks, looking interested.

"I'm probably not the best example," Ms. Readman muttered. "But I'm distracting you from your studies!"

Re: Sixth Period

[smartestone]

"I should get to that, yes," she says. "It was nice to see you again, Ms. Readman."
