Library, Wednesday

[3girls-1core.livejournal.com]

Sholeh came in with a mission today. It was a new semester, with new students and teachers and at least one person seemed to be afraid of libraries and librarians. That wouldn't do at all! Libraries were magic places full of wonder and delight, not fear!

Today, she was brainstorming plans to get people involved with the library more. Maybe a book club? Tours? Homework help?

She also had a platter of cookies on the circulation desk with a small sign that read, Welcome to the library! Have a cookie! First-timers? Have two! Some of the children's books kept trying to steal the cookies when her back was turned, but she was old hand at listening for the soft, whispery noises that meant the books were up to something.

"Which is why you don't have to worry about this library killing you!" Sholeh said, hopping on that logic like a kitten onto yarn. "Past libraries are not a predictor for this one!"

Cecil blinked. That...was actually a pretty good point! He looked around the library, which was being decidedly non-deadly at the moment.

"If you're sure..." He snatched up another cookie before the books could get it and grinned a bit nervously at Sholeh.

"No one's ever tried to kill me yet," Sholeh assured him. "I mean, sometimes the books can be bratty, but none of them have ever hurt me."

There was that one time where Special Collections had kept opening up the door, but Sholeh figured that was more an attempt to lure her in than actually hurt her.

"Some of them are kind of cute," Cecil allowed. One of them nudged his hand, and he switched the cookie to the other. "Mine."
