Library [10.09]

Karal arrived at the library with a purpose this morning. He had a class...very soon, actually, but there was time to find a book.

An important book, considering he had no idea what physics was and it seemed to be an integral part of the aforementioned class.

The book was easily found but, sadly, not so easily read. The moment he checked it out, it transformed into a kitten and a box. With a single inscrutable look, the kitten climbed into the box, pulled the lid shut behind it and, as far as Karal could tell, ceased to exist.

"...what?"

Altra rolled his eyes, sniffed, and replied, :I have no idea.:

He thought about opening the box, just to see if the kitten was all right, but sensed that this might be a bad idea.

[ooc: Kitten books YAY!]

"Yes," he said but held a finger to Karal before turning to Altra. "Hey, Altra. Thanks for the assist the other day. I owe you one."

Altra's whiskers twitched as Karal clunked his forehead on the desk again. :It was my pleasure. I'd have intervened earlier, but,: he rolled one shoulder in a kitty shrug, :there are rules about interfering.:

"And I did think I'd be able to handle it but..." Gavin grinned at Karal and reached over to pat his shoulder, "...they were pretty insistent."

Somewhat reassured by the shoulder pat, Karal smiled weakly at Gavin and decided to forego another clunk. "Gremlins are evil," he said on a sigh.

"You don't have to tell me twice," Gavin said. "Magician, remember? Barbershop, remember? The ones that bit you were particularly evil, it seems."

Karal made a disgusted face at the memories. "It was only one, which must be why John and I were afflicted with the same madness," he muttered. "I will replace your pillow though."

"Thanks," Gavin laughed. "What'd Evey say about all that? I'm sure she heard about it on the radio."

Karal groaned again. "She saw it first hand," he admitted, flushing again. "Before you arrived. Thankfully, she thought it was amusing. Very amusing." He sighed, smiling a little bit more. "I didn't think she would ever stop laughing."

[ooc: must sleep now!]

"Good," Gavin said and laughed. "I hoped she wouldn't think you and John were actually that into me. Because...wow, you were guys were into me."

[Sleep well!]

"We weren't really!" he protested. "It wasn't us!" He paused, then started to grin. "But I think the gremlin might have been."

"At the time, you were," Gavin said. "It was scary!"

He rubbed his forehead. "It must have been terrifying," he said, heartfelt, and suddenly very glad John had snatched away the bit of paper he'd been writing on. "I don't even know how John got in your room!"

"Neither do I, don't worry," Gavin laughed. "He didn't break the lock and that's what I was worried about."

"Honestly, I think you're lucky that we didn't break down the door!" he said. "That gremlin must really love you to have affected both of us so badly."

"Oh, that makes me so happy," Gavin said and rolled his eyes. "Gremlins love me. I'll have to remember that the next time they try to bite me!"

Karal started to laugh, grateful that Gavin didn't seem to be mad. "No more getting bitten," he declared. "It's too humiliating."

"Yeah and you saying that just ensures that it'll happen," Gavin said. "You know it will."

"Oh no, no no no." Karal shook his head. "I'm determined. This will not be like the sheep."

"Hopefully your determination can stand up against this island's sense of humor," Gavin joked.

Karal froze as he thought about that, then clunked his head on the desk again. "Doomed," he muttered. "Completely doomer."

"Probably," Gavin said and patted Karal's shoulder again. "But you're in good company, at least?"

He smiled at that. "This is very true. I'm in the best company possible."
