Bridge bounces in to the library with coffee, excited to be back for the first time since break!

Bridge finally looks up from where he's been quietly and methodically headdesking.

"Want some help?"

"....Can you erase it from our brains?" Door asks hopefully.

"I don't think my powers work like that," Bridge admits.

Boo.

"Can you get close enough to the computer to turn it off without getting sucked in?"

"I already read through it," Bridge admits sheepishly. "I think... I think I can turn off the computer without reading through it again."

Door moves away from it.

Slightly.

And closes one eye.

Bridge inches toward it. Carefully. And hits the "Power" button.

After a moment, the screen goes black and Bridge breathes a sigh of relief.

Door keeps staring at the empty screen, appalled. "I ...can still see the words."

"...it'll fade." He hopes. It's possible the story has some sort of strange power and could stay there, after all.

Door blinks a lot, and the after-image of the glowing letters does indeed start to fade. Not that the mental after-image does.

"Thank you."
