Library [05/21]

[likethegun]

Sam was very happy to be back in the library, even if it was still a mess. But enough space had been cleared out that people could come in if they needed or wanted to.

Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

Sam was actually making some headway with the sorting, if only because the books he was going through were all ones he'd read already.

Peter didn't have workshops on Monday. That meant he slept late. That also meant that if he wanted to stop by to see Sam, it was going to happen in the afternoon.

Ergo: afternoon. And one Steve Peter showing up in the library.

"Hey Sam, how's it going?"

Re: Afternoon Periods

"Hey Peter" Sam said, grinning. "I'm doing well. I think the library might actually be back in one piece someday. How are you?"

"Got a question for you," Peter said. "A serious one."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

Sam nodded. "Okay, what's up."

Peter had a Very Serious expression on. It may not have reached his eyes though.

"I say 'road trip' and you say...?"

"...Endless hours of mullet rock?" Sam replied.

snerk "If that's your kink," Peter replied. "I won't judge."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"It's definitely not my kink. But it's what I'm used to after driving all over the place with my dad and Dean," Sam said. "Are you planning on going somewhere?"

"Picture it," Peter said. "New York. You, me, Isabel, maybe Karal, Gavin and Dawn if they're up for it. Quick weekender. We could stay at my place."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"Really? That sounds awesome. I'm sure Dawn would love to come too."

"Excellent!" Petter patted the library counter to show his approval. "I'll see when we can get it together. Plus I should probably call home. Make sure they're not throwing a party or something."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"That would probably be impolite," Sam said, like he had any idea.

Aravis wasn't in the greatest mood after her workshop that morning, and was in no mood to deal with any more stupid people.

She sincerely hoped that the tall boy sorting books was intelligent. "Good afternoon."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"Good afternoon," Sam replied, getting more polite for the sake of 'pretty girl he didn't know yet.' "Can I help you?"

"I need a book of definitions," she said, holding up a small scrap of parchment. "I do not know what these words mean and should like to find out."

The list included words such as "emo," "cute," "chick," "midol," "sweet," (she thought it might have another definition, since people were so obviously deranged to use it as an adjective to describe her) and assorted other words.

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

Sam raised his eyebrows and bit back any kind of snickering noise. "Hmm. I wouldn't be surprised if we had a book that defined words like that, but I'm not exactly sure where it would be," he said, turning to his trusty computer. "Are you new? To, uh, this area, I mean."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[notqueenyet.livejournal.com]

She nodded. "As of the Friday before last. My name is Aravis." She ducked a swift curtsy.

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"Aravis. That's a pretty name," he said, bowing since it seemed like the thing to do. "I'm Sam. Um, welcome, although I'm sure you've already heard that countless times."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[notqueenyet.livejournal.com]

"Thank you," Aravis said with a smile. "I suppose you are not new?"

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"No, I've been here for about a year," he said. "It feels like less time though."

Re: Afternoon Periods

"It's quite different from my home," she mused. "I come from the same world as Peter Pevensie, if you know him."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[likethegun]

"Oh, yeah, I know Peter. That's good, right? I mean, that you have someone else here from your world? I think that would make settling in easier."

Re: Afternoon Periods

[notqueenyet.livejournal.com]

She smiled a little. "He is a bit older, in my version of our home. It is...confusing."

Thursday was still around, tidying and sorting in the stacks somewhere.
