Library, Tuesday

[angelo_wings]

The bad part of having a job was that you had to be there each week.

Rinoa would have never thought that being in a library would be a hardship, for her. But it wasn't so much being in the library as it was being out of her room, where she had been hiding for the past day, and would have liked to hide for the next several.

When you had thoroughly embarrassed yourself as some trampy soul-sucking vixen of the night, you did not really want to run into some of your victims. Or any. At all.

And so Rinoa was going to spend a great deal of time today in the stacks, putting away books, and checking the organization of the books already shelved. Anything to keep a low profile ...

She nodded, one hand reaching up to curl protectively around her rings. "We're still responsible," she said. "Even if we're not the ones in control. If I had ... hurt you, that would still be my responsibility, even if it wasn't my fault. Because it would still be me, even though it wasn't."

"I'm not sure you're right about that," Bruce said. "But even if that was true, you didn't hurt me. Focus on what did happen, not what could have happened. That will only drive you insane."

She nodded, still turning the idea over in her mind.

"Sorry," she said. "Just ... thinking of other things."

It really didn't do to dwell on them, though. She straightened up and went back to shelving books.

"We're both fine," she said. "Another case of the island embarrassing everyone and amusing itself at our expense. We should show it by refusing to be humiliated."

Said the girl who'd been hiding in her room yesterday.

"Exactly. I hope this helped some," Bruce said.
