Slightly early, and with thermos of tea tightly in-hand, Anemone opened the library.

"I...dunno. I hope it doesn't close down. I think I'm stuck here." He'd received a handwavey postcard from his dad saying he would be drivin' on through to January.

"I don't think it will close, there's too many of us from places where the holidays are different or have nowhere to go. I just didn't know if they were going to do anything special. If not, I might have to hit the store and get enough food to cook for those of us still on second floor."

Anemone blinked and looked at him. "Um, when is Christmas, anyway?"

"You're gonna cook?" He got big wibbly eyes at that. "Christmas is the 25th. So.. just a few weeks away. Really, you're going to cook?"

Because that was important.

"Maybe? If I'm here, then yes, I'll cook. I might be gone for part of break, but I don't know when," she said. "Let me guess, a request for pie?"

"Anything! Food is good. Pie is the best kind of food." Spoken from experience. "You're leaving for break?"

"I don't know. For all I know, my guardians might decide to bring me home for a visit." The rolled eyes might give him a clue about how she felt about that particular idea. "I'm hoping to go visit someone sometime over the break, but I don't know what his schedule is like. For all I know, his evil overlord-boss has him working that week."

"He has an evil overlord for a boss? Like in Amazingly Cliche Comix?" His eyes were not as round as saucers. Really. "Does he have a space ray?"

"Knowing John, he's trying to build a space ray," Anemone said dryly. "I don't know if his boss is evil-evil, or just stupid-evil, but I get the impression that there is some degree of evil. Oh, and I also get the impression that they're trying to take over the world, but I think all corporations are trying to do that this year. It's very hip."

Space rays were just so cool! "Trying to take over the world? Why?"

"That's what corporations do! At least, that's what the newspaper tells me." Anemone nodded seriously. "Everything's all about corporate takeovers, and monopolies and stuff."

"What do they do when they win Monopoly?" Jack had never played that far. It's usually a case of Frustration or I Can't Afford Your Rent and then somehow the board gets tossed and the pieces scattered.

"I have no idea," she confessed, "it was totally over my head at that point, I didn't understand half what the newspaper was saying."

Someone needs to quit reading her not-boyfriend's anarchist newspapers.

"I don't like Monopoly. I never win," Jack admitted. "I like card games better."
