Library, Friday

[iruinenglish.livejournal.com]

There was no Buffy in the library today.

What there was was a sign on the door:

Off killing zombies
Research books on the table if you need them.
(No stealing on my non-watch!!!)


[Buffy's- clearly- not there, but the library can be open for those who might need it.]

Mac was not a zombie fighter. Not in the slightest.

She had brought what looked like it had once been a mop handle, that she'd found god knows where, just in case. Hopefully, she wouldn't have to use it.

Her place in times of invasion was right here, in the library, and she grabbed a few of those books to settle down and page through the information.

Harper randomly turned to whoever was near her. "Hey, I found something on how to fight zombies (http://www.fvza.org/zdefense.html)! Do you think this will help?"

Her knitting needles were now in her hair, within easy reach in case anything undead stepped into the library.

Mac stared at the book a moment. "I will never stop being amazed at the weird things we keep in this library," she stated.

"And look, it's from the Federal Vampire and Zombie Agency (http://www.fvza.org/index.html), so they've got to know their stuff!" added Harper, smiling.

She hadn't yet noticed the logo for a comic book publisher on the book.

"It's probably more reliable than zombie movies?" Mac decided, nodding. "I mean, those things are usually hardly realistic."

"It's hard to say. I've never seen a real zombie up until now," said Harper. "I guess this kind of thing happens all the time in Fandom, but I just transferred here at the beginning of the semester."

"You haven't been into the bar?" Mac asked.

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

"Not really," said Harper. "I seem to spend my evenings working sewing and knitting."

"They have zombies normally," she told her. "As the band. I think they might've been leftovers from the last invasion."

"They aren't like the ones out there at the moment."

"Really? And they're, like, totally under control and everything?" asked Harper. "I'll have to check it out one day once it's safe to go out. They do let in kids from the school, right?"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac nodded. "They're... very lax on the carding thing," she said. "Or they used to be. I haven't been in for a really, really long time."

"I'll have to check it out sometime," said Harper. "Of course, it makes sense that they'll cater to students, though. We're pretty much half the population on the island."

"They would not last in this economy if they didn't," Mac agreed, absently flipping another page in the book in front of her.

"We make it past this whole zombie issue, I'll go with you," she offered.

"I'm looking forward to it, both checking out the bar and getting past the zombie invasion," said Harper.

"I'm so much happier when the undead aren't just wandering around eating people I know," Mac agreed, pulling a bit of a face.
