Library, Wednesday [12/7]

[ancientbschamp.livejournal.com]

Gabrielle wasn't sure she'd call what she did this morning opening the library, exactly, when people had been all but living in there for the past week and a half. Refreshing it, maybe, or no, that wasn't quite --

Semantic exercises were beside the point. The point was that she came in, straightened up as best she could without disturbing any stacks of books that might be research, and left a box of baked goods outside Belle's office door since gods knew she had basically been living in there.

She got a fresh pot of coffee going, prepped filter baskets of grounds for three more, and was ready to call the library good to go for the day.

As the students arrived today, they'd find the usual desks shoved aside in favor of large cushions, blankets, and large vats of coffee, tea, and hot cider.

"We are assuming none of you have slept recently," Ghanima said, gesturing for everyone to grab a spot, "--and so we are going with a movie today. One that incorporates both military strategy and victory against impossible odds: Crimson Bluff."

Shunsui, standing behind her as usual, did his best to look absolutely angelic. "Even during conflict, there is beauty in unexpected places ♥," he said, as Ghanima fiddled with the remote to press 'play', fully expecting the movie to start.

What she got instead was something else entirely.

She turned around to glare at her co-teacher, hands on her hips, as Shunsui giggled into his sleeve. "But ♥ Ghani~chan ♥!" he protested, "-we've never gotten to see the ending ♥! And this world needs all the love and beauty it can get ♥!"

Ghanima just sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "Never say that in public again," she requested. "Students, please enjoy the film. If you feel you cannot stay to watch, you are dismissed on the condition you go straight to the library."

What was the school board thinking yadda yadda yadda

When the students approached the class room all they would find is a note:

Class Assignment:

Go to the library and find out what the hell is going on.

Watch TV

THE CHOICE IS YOURS!

Just outside of Special Collections and beyond [Wednesday late afternoon]

Belle couldn't believe it had taken her this long to think of this. She blamed the exhaustion clouding her brain, but a possible answer was looming there at the other end of her library.

Of course they hadn't found anything, out here where the books she understood lived. But why would they? These books dealt were normal, and while they spoke of otherworldly things, Belle knew where the dangerous material was kept.

So she'd emerged from her office (nearly tripping over Gabrielle's gift (and her heart melted a little at the thoughtfulness, but this wasn't the time), tying her hair back and looking more awake than she had in a week. She stopped by the circulation desk to tell Gabrielle to keep things under control here as she moved towards Special Collections and stopped at the edge of the entrance in.

She wasn't stupid enough to go in alone, but she also hardly wanted to drag anyone else in. So she cast a glance around, hesitating. She'd only pause a minute, but she needed to see if there was anyone else she could or would take with her. The idea of bringing in students caused her to pause a fair amount.

Today, upon arriving at class, students would learn that Neal was not there. And he'd left a note:

Not here. Sorry.

Because that wasn't at all rude for a first-period class. Enjoy the creepy walk back to the dorms, kids.

Summer had sent out a handwaved to her students to let them know class was cancelled.

But just in case they didn't get it, there was a note:

Class cancelled for the day. Stay safe.
