Library, Tuesday

The Library was open slightly later than usual, and Rinoa had to hope that Belle was not going to mind that she had brought along her Knight. She would lie and say it was for protection, if necessary, so she didn't have to admit that the phone call he had received had shaken her up too much to want to leave his side.

... some other them had died. Had been swallowed by the nothing ...

It would have been tempting to call off, but at times like this, the library needed to be open, for researchers, and so she was here, with coffee, and with Squall in tow, and hoping no one noticed that her eyes were red-rimmed.

Oh, that was ridiculous. Considering all who had gone missing, no one was going to care if her eyes were red-rimmed.

(sorry for late. OCD incoming. Squall modded with permission.)

She's here, and she can't concentrate on much of anything.

If you'd rather bypass the Sorceress and chat with her Knight, this would be his thread.

Squall had a book open in front of him, theoretically researching the nothingness, but he was just staring at it. Through it, really. His eyes weren't focusing on the page.

Early in the afternoon, Seifer stopped by the library with half a dozen chocolate chocolate chip muffins. Yes, he was bringing Rinoa treats.

He was side-tracked when he saw Squall, and one glance at Rinoa told him something was up, so he headed for the one least likely to start crying.

"Who did we lose?"

"Everyone," Squall answered without looking up. "And no one. It was a alternate universe." He shrugged.

He should feel okay with that, really, but somehow it was just...

"That's fucked."

Squall shrugged and pulled out his phone. He queued up the message he'd gotten (http://whateverknight.livejournal.com/846.html?thread=220494#t220494) and held the phone out for Seifer. "Yeah."

Seifer listened to the message, and then handed it back. He had to swallow hard a few times to keep his lunch down.

"I take it back. This is beyond fucked."

Squall nodded. "Yeah. This whole situation is. How are you holding up?"

"Avoiding calling Garden. Not sure I want to get a call like that, ever." And now he was worried about Squall, which was just weird.

"Worried about Rinoa now."

Squall nodded. "Me, too. And everyone else. I'm not sure what we're going to do." He shrugged. "I think at this point, avoiding phone calls is a good idea."

Seifer nodded and set the package from the bakery on the nearest table. "I'm thinking I should have brought alcohol and not muffins."

In case you're looking for books.

Scully was back. Attacking the magic section now. Trying to make notes of what matched up and what didn't.

Most of it didn't.

In case you'd like to do any.

If she's here.

She was. Belle was not living up to her name, lately -- the bags under her eyes from her long days researching were granting her more than her twenty-one years. But she'd located tea, and that was helping, and she had more than enough to share, as well.

If there's anything I missed.

SP warning: I flee for a couple of hours. Sorry, my Tuesdays are insane lately.
