The Library Is Open (01/12/06)

Janet opens the library after ACJ, sits behind the Collections Desk, and starts working.

OOC: Janet's player is extraordinarily preoccupied today and will be responding slowly.

Rory perched behind the desk near Janet, fully engrossed in a book about Egyptian art.

Zero sat next to Rory, a musical notation notebook open in front of her as she fiddled with her pen. "What rhymes with 'gremlin?'"

"Yemin?" Rory suggsted.
swerval_zero: (shh I'm studying/writing Zero)

Zero considers both of these suggestions. "Kremlin?"

"Is that actually a word?" Rory asked.

After Campaigning, Angel came in and looked around.

"It's that place. In, um. Russia?"

"Hey, Angel, help a girl out. What rhymes with 'gremlin?'"

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-01-12 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh, duh. Are you writing about Russian gremlins?"

"It's supposed to be about our gremlins. Protest song, like. I'm a little concerned about how Phoebe and now Principal Smith want to eradicate the gremlins. Yeah, they're evil squalling grinders, but I want to poke them with sharp things but they're beings too completely disregarding the massacre I led!"

"Exactly! That's what I said at the support group thing yesterday," Rory nodded. "Veronica was talking about killing them, and I said we should just relocate them, or give 'em to you." She tilted her head curiously. "And I heard the principal - what's with Phoebe, though? She wants to kill them?"

"Oh, yeah, I saw one of her posters--a lot of text, and it was all about how a vote for her is a vote to kill all the gremlins or something, which, genocidey much? And she had a gun. Where the squall did she get a picture of her with a gun? There's been the weapons ban on for ages."

Rory frowned. "She knew how to fire one when we did that treasure-hunting trip," she mused, "but that was like, forever ago. And why would she go after a gremlin with a gun anyway? They're all bitty! And isn't she a witch?"

"Seriously! A mallet's all you need! And yeah, I think she is, so she should have...I don't know, mojo? A gun's just overkill."

Angel thought about it.

"Tremblin'?"
swerval_zero: (Default)

[personal profile] swerval_zero 2006-01-12 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oooh, tremblin', that's good!" Zero scribbles a few more lines. "Thanks, Angel!"

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-01-12 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Exactly. Hey, a bunch of us took them out just by kicking," Rory shrugged. "If I can get a gremlin to go away that way, anyone can. So that's just ridiculous. And way to run a platform based on the destruction of an entire group of individuals."

"Well, we did have a flamethrower that night in the common room. But there were a lot of them!"

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-01-12 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"Still different from a gun. Flamethrowers can take out a bunch of 'em, right?"

[identity profile] notstakedyet.livejournal.com 2006-01-12 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
"Welcome." Angel made a vague, lost gesture in the direction of the library. "I need to research something for class. Looking for newspaper articles going back five, ten years even. Ideally I'd love to search by keyword, like a name. We got something like that here?"

"Oh, yeah, all in one swoop!" Zero illustrates with her hands. "Whoosh, extra-crispy green buggers. Not that I'm violent or anything."

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-01-12 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Rory winced. "Okay, ew, and I still think we should take care of them in a human way."

"I tend to agree, now that I know more about them. They seem to have, like, gremlin society. Not culture, they're not really smart enough for it to be culture."

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-01-12 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nah, but they were playing with toys and board games right before I got bitten. It was kind of cute, in a way. And then they made me think I was three and it wasn't so cute anymore."
