Library [11/15]

Thursday arrived early again on Thursday, setting Friday up in her office. After yesterday's news, she was more than concerned and kept checking on Friday more than was really necessary. She broke from the usual library rules today by making sure there was plenty of coffee, other drinks and food to go around for anyone who wanted to stop by.

"Nothing, sir." The sir was automatic response to anyone who sounded like that, and Karal looked up from his current book. "I thought, I though it might be something like what's happening in my world, but there's nothing."

That got a single nod. "We're missing something," Cable said, glancing over towards where Adah was seated, his eyes narrowing faintly. "Something obvious." And couldn't help but add, "But what else is new..."

"Everything's obvious once you know the answer," he replied, rubbing his forehead with the back of his hand, "once you find the key. Until then it's just beating your head against the door, trying to get in."

"I've got a very hard head."

As many had told him before.

And with that, Cable moved on.

It was oddly heartening, and Karal returned to his reading with a renewed determination.

Even if all he achieved was narrowing down what it was by determining what it was not, that would help.
