Library, Monday [6/7]

Gabrielle had been hoping for a quiet shift today. She wasn't entirely naive enough to think that just hoping for one made it any more likely to happen, though.

Finding a mis-shelved compendium of Spartan history bristling and rustling its pages at the volumes on Athenian culture surrounding it made her feel vindicated in that touch of pessimism . . . and very, very relieved that this situation could be handled with just a little proper reshelving.

If only it were always that easy.

"Not so ancient," Peter explained, pleasantly. "Austrian-American inventor from the last century, did a lot of work with electricity. Definitely worth reading up on yourself if you're so inclined."

". . . oh." Gabrielle grinned sheepishly. "I knew that."

She hadn't.

"I'm not much of a science person, unfortunately."

"Fair enough," Peter said. "I think I'll actually go find it for myself. But thank you for your help, I appreciate it."

"Any time," Gabrielle assured him happily. "It's what I'm here for. I like having people to help, it makes me feel fulfilled in my aide duties."

She could go on like this forever. Better run, Peter. Unless you wanted to hear her go on forever.
