Library [03/22]

Bridge... wasn't exactly himself when he showed up for library duty. But at least he was there.

"Yeah," Wyatt went on. "We were studying magical swords and I said 'Excalibur' and there it was. Dude, maybe I'm King Arthur or something."

Of course, when he said "Excalibur" again, the sword popped back into his hand.

"Dude," the djinn says. Because it seems the appropriate thing to say.

The kind of things you could do with a sword like that, he sends the tiniest little mental whisper in Wyatt's direction. You'd be unstoppable.

"Can you imagine what I can do with this?" Wyatt said. "Dude, I'm like King of England or something. I could raise an army to lead into battle."

You could raise the *dead*, perhaps. Your parents.

"You'd be a force to be reckoned with, dude." The djinn says. "Sorry. I've just always wanted to say that."

Wyatt grinned, then turned more thoughtful. "I could be so powerful," he said quietly. "I bet I could do something like . . . bring the dead back to life."

"You sure that's a good idea?" the djinn hoped he sounded appropriately concerned. You don't need your brother, you know. He'd just hold you back.

He couldn't tell Chris, that's for sure, Wyatt mused. He probably shouldn't really be talking to Bridge about it, either. But he knew he was powerful -- his alternate universe self had had tons of power. If he could learn that power, he could do whatever he wanted. Including bringing his real parents back to life.

"I don't know," he said neutrally. "Just something to think about I guess."

"It certainly is impressive," the djinn says, leaning closer to it.

"Yeah, you know all the legends behind it?" Wyatt said. "King Arthur was like one of the greatest leaders in the world. If I'm him. . . ?" I'd have the power to do anything.

"Then you'd have the power to do anything you chose," he finishes. And no one could hold you back anymore...

"Anything I chose," Wyatt repeated under his breath. I could channel the power for a resurrection spell. I can find one somewhere.

The djinn says nothing, just glances over at Special Collections. If there's a resurrection spell in existence anywhere on this island, it's sure to be there.

Wyatt followed Bridge's gaze. "So," he said casually, "you think I could get into Special Collections to look up some stuff? About Excalibur?"

"I don't know," he says thoughtfully. "Might need a note for that."

He *could* just take the boy in with him now, but that would risk the librarian finding out, and he doesn't want to blow his cover just yet.

Of course Bridge would play by the rules. "I can do that," he said. "I'm sure Sakura would give me one. I'm her TA and all." He didn't want to wait though, he was feeling very impatient.

The djinn could feel Wyatt's frustration at not being allowed in to SC, and truthfully, he found it kind of amusing. Denying him that might help push him over the edge, as well.

He nods, instead. "Maybe you should ask her next time she's got office hours?" he suggests.

Wyatt nodded. "Maybe I'll do just that," he said. Or maybe I'll orb in later when no one's around and find what I need.
