Methos continues to tag books for shelving.

"Huh. The Abarat. That might come in handy someday at this school..."

I'd be interested in reading that one, then, sir.

Is there a second?

*looks hopeful*

You want me to do all your work for you, kid?

Try Diodorus.

*bristles, but tries to keep up the politeness. Can be VERY polite.*

Sir, I'm semi-literate with your alphabet and before Monday had never even touched a real paper book.

*calms. politepolitepolite.*

Your help is much appreciated, but I don't have any idea what I'm doing. You give me names, but where do I find them?

I ain't stupid. I'm just having culture shock.

Look, I can't do your homework for you. That's the card catalog, look up "Caeser" and "Diodorus" and copy down what you can.

[OOC: Of course, mun would be hurrying to figure it out for you... what do you (IC) need?]

*calm, polite, calm*

I'm not asking you to do my homework. All I'm asking is for you to write the names down for me so I can find them. English spelling is very weird.

*flips through card catalogue*

*Looks at card and puzzles it out*

Okay, I think I understand how this works. Physical version of a StelNet search.

[[ooc: mun is a librarian, too. playing dense is great fun. Han just needs a couple of sources on Celts for 110.]]

*considers pointing out the names are Latin, and figures that's being a bit too picky*

Here *writes down names*. Match the first letter of the name in the card catalog, and then the second, and so on. Luckily, both "Caeser" and "Diodorus" are near the beginning of the alphabet.

*beat*

You do know the alphabet, right?

[12parseckessel.livejournal.com]

I think I said semi-literate.

I can read, it's just your alphabet and spelling are new. Still getting the hang of them.

See *writes on a piece of scrap paper* this is what I'd be looking for at home.


I think I can handle this, sir. Thank you.
