Library [09/06]

Bridge bounces into the library a few minutes early, eager to start his first day of library duty for the new semester.

"Books?" Bridge says thoughtfully. "You probably wanted to look something up."

"Hell!" Andrew exclaimed. "I need to do some research on Hell. My little brother is of the demon persuasion and I wanted to try and build up my knowledge base so I can help him acclimate to Fandom better."

"So I'm guessing you mean Hell like..." Bridge waves a hand vaguely at the floor. "And not the town in Michigan?"

"Right, like fire and brimstone and all sort of evil little critters." Andrew nodded, glad to see that they were on the same page.

"Okay, well. I can show you these books over here," Bridge says, leading Andrew over to the appropriate section. "Anything involving demonic spells or other sorts of magic would be in Special Collections, but I think you should be okay with this here."

"Okay, awesome. And, um, those other books --" Andrew cleared his throat, "how might someone go about getting to take a look at them?"

Bridge looks at Andrew carefully. "Well, you'll have to get a note from a teacher. And one of the library staff will have to go with you- it's kind of dangerous in there- and you can't actually check books out of Special Collections. It's reference-only."

"Can you take notes? Like am I allowed to bring in a number two pencil and a notebook?" Andrew was failing at his effort to be nonchalant.

"Is there something you might need to look up in Special Collections?" Bridge asks with a raised eyebrow.

"Well, not particularly. I just have a problem with knowledge being under lock and key. It's only harmful if it's your intent to use it," Andrew whined.

Bridge sighs. "Tell that to the books that like to bite people," he says. "It's not just that they contain potentially dangerous knowledge, it's that some of the books *themselves* are dangerous, no matter if you've got the best of intentions or not."

With a little dismissive hand gesture, Andrew replied, "Then it will be a challenge. I love a good challenge."

He began to scan the shelves in front of him. "Oh, but there's plenty to start with right here." He pulled out a book and started to flip through the pages.
