Library, Monday [4/5]

After being away almost an entire week that had really only been two days and arriving back in Fandom just in time to scurry for the library, you'd think Gabrielle would be more disoriented upon arrival.

You wouldn't be taking into account that Gabrielle's concept of time was unique. 'Wow, Xena, just one more second and I would have been plummeting to the bottom of a flaming pit with spikes in it' was about as precise as she tended to measure it, long before watches had been invented, and any more specific time-telling than that felt . . . awkwardly inappropriate, somehow. Like she knew too much about time, and really, she hadn't even met Chronos, much less be sure she was on those kinds of terms with him.

Anyway. The point was that Gabrielle made it into the library just in time to get the coffee started before scrambling about to tidy and reshelve. When she wasn't up and about in the stacks, she was sorting through the various trinkets and presents she'd picked up for friends while in Kaeleer. That part could take a while -- buying presents for Amazons was more complicated than she'd thought.

Henry flittered around the library today, reshelving a few books here, putting research resources in order there, retreating to his office to order books and then going off to refill the coffee pot.

He enjoyed keeping busy.
