Library [12/9]

[wesleynotponcy.livejournal.com]

Books. Coffee on a little wheely cart. Even some non-crumbly snacks set out on a table in the hall, with a little placard set up reading, "Do not bring near the books."

And the research continued.

Mod Your Library

Okay, getting here had been, um, difficult. What with all the weirdos outside. But here Topher was anyway, looking entirely out of his element hovering near a section that had nothing to do with science at all. Or, at least, not his science. Closer to magic stuff, really, if you were the kind of person to use a word like that.

Yeah, he was just going to wait for Billy before he tried to actually look at any of the books, thanks.

Billy's trip to the library had been...interesting, and he was glad to see that Topher was there in one piece. "Hey!" he said as he went over to him, keeping his voice down a bit since it was a library, after all. "Have you seen what's going on outside?"

Re: Mod Your Library

[dollpocalypse]

"No, what's going on?" Topher asked, eliciting a glare from the conveniently self-modded guy at the desk as he nearly knocked over a chair in his haste to peer out the window. And then --

"Whooooa. Holy shit."

Re: Mod Your Library

[selfhelphero]

"Yeah, seriously," Billy said, peering out as well for another look. "I don't remember hearing anything about the crazy people being armed. I'm trying not to wonder how many there are."

Ender was here. He hadn't really left - he'd slept about an hour in a corner of the room, and then gotten up and gone back to work.

Might as well.

Kenzi had heard about what happened to Ben from Topher, and felt bad about it... and more so after hearing about other people she knew getting zapped on the Radio.

So there were cookies. On a plate. Next to Ender. And a carton of milk.

These things were necessary!

Re: Mod Your Library

[endsthegame]

Sometime during the day, Ender idly ate... one.

Mostly because it was there.

Re: Mod Your Library

Mission accomplished!

Of course he wasn't going to sleep, that would be logical and ridiculous.

"Drink it, before the heathens get it all," Emma stated, setting a mug of the Good Coffee in front of Ender with some moddedomg fruit swiped from Tara's tray. "I will not be held responsible if you fall over twitching from dehydration."

No, coffee was not the best for hydration, but this was Emma's way of trying to care. Just be happy she isn't trying to feed you Pop Tarts, Ender.

"Sadly, I did not grab the milk from the fridge."

Re: Mod Your Library

[endsthegame]

He already had PTSD, and the added tension wasn't letting him sleep more than increments anyway.

So as far as he was convinced, he was being utterly logical.

"Thank you," Ender said politely, and took the mug from her. "I haven't been on a coffee run since yesterday. And black'll do."

Ah. Caffeine.

"Considering the state that the area outside the school was in when I left, I rather doubt you will be doing a run to the Perk any time soon," Emma informed him. "Our new guests are quite literally tearing up the town."

Re: Mod Your Library

Tara added a tray of cheeses, fruits and crackers to the coffee cart, then glanced into the stacks before retreating. It was early yet; she hoped to get to the magic shop and back before things got much worse.

Beyond refills of coffee and the rare snack run, Lex had lost all track of time, not that he had a whole lot to show for it. Not even stubble.

At least unlike the last time he'd buried himself in research like this, he wasn't missing out on any last chances at quality time with anyone.

Like some of the others, Tyrion had not left the library after returning to it when the meeting ended. When he heard the noise from the battles outside, he went to a window to watch for a few moments before retreating to the comforting world of a scroll.

Re: Mod Your Library

[icecoldfrost]

Emma had brought with her what was, perhaps, the most vital thing to their survival:

Coffee. Do you have any idea what a library full of addicts would do without regular access to the Perk?

She set two 16oz bags of the classic espresso grind by the little wheely cart, for whomever had access to the coffee-maker before going to work. Of course, she had more in her bag, but it was hers.

Otherwise, she was going to immerse herself in whatever almost-useful things she could find, while keeping a telepathic ear out for anyone who might stumble across good information.

Lindsey was there once again in the morning and for part of the afternoon, futilely going through book after book hoping something would jump out at him.

Nothing did.

And in the afternoon when he went out to clear his head, the Nothing (http://fandomtownies.livejournal.com/6189155.html?thread=237907811#t237907811) literally jumped out at him.

[But feel free to tag him before he leaves, should you wish to do so.]

Talk to Wesley

Re: Talk to Wesley

Kenzi wandered over for a quick check-in. "News? Not news? Weaponized chocolate?"

Re: Talk to Wesley

[wesleynotponcy.livejournal.com]

"What?" asked a very disoriented Wesley, looking up from his book. "Oh. Yes. Quite."

That wasn't really an answer.

Re: Talk to Wesley

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

Kenzi eyerolled, then poked a carton of milk toward him. And a slice of cheese. "Drink this. Eat that. You can do both at once."

Re: Talk to Wesley

[wesleynotponcy.livejournal.com]

"No food near the books," he chided her, moving both to the edge of the desk.

FOOD WAS FOR WIMPS.

OOC

[wesleynotponcy.livejournal.com]

Kings and queens and presidents
Ministers of government
Welcome to the future of your world
Through talking heads that took liberties
The monkeys learned to build machines
They think they'll get to heaven through the universe

Shut up, lockestheway. Just shut up.

THERE'LL BE TROUBLE WHEN THE KIDS COME OUT.
