Library, Saturday

If Elsa looked a little out of sorts as she made her way into the library, it was because she'd been treated to nightmares of days long past, of a little sister who was so far gone that she wasn't even shivering from the cold. She'd woken up with tears on her face, only to be met with a knock on her door, and a tentative, "Elsa?"

It had happened a few times that morning while she'd tried to pull herself together. Every time, she went and actually opened the door. She was going to do things differently. She was going to do things right by Anna.

Every time, there was nobody at the door.

The first thing she did when she got to the library, then, was put on hot water for tea. The next thing she did was try to figure out the coffee maker. And the third thing she did was make a beeline for a stack of books, because at least if she was busying herself with being useful, then the barrage of emotions that was hitting her like a sack of bricks would maybe, maybe dull a little.

Spoiler: It didn't.

[OOC: The library is open for all your BDE Researching needs!]

Lottie looked over the list thoughtfully, then added:

NIGHTSTALKER -- creepy old man who eats last hopes. Gets bigger more he eats. Eventually turns into giant floating walnut.

This was accompanied by two little cartoony illustrations, of the nightstalker in human and walnut forms.

Somethin' that looked like zombies but fast an' covered in electricity? Are techno-zombies a thing? Cause, if so techno-zombies. That run.

Hardison was not particularly fond of being outside right now.

"Techno-zombies." Lottie nodded approvingly. "Well descriptive."

Hardison had just decided to print out the article he'd discovered and post it up on the whiteboard. It was an article from 1990. Specifically, Christmas Eve of 1990.

"CULT MURDER-SUICIDE IN LOCAL TOWN
GLASGOW - The citizens of the township of Glasgow, WI have been found dead in a gruesome scene in the town square. The citizens appeared to have turned on each other. A series of warnings were dismissed by local police as 'prank calls' in the days leading up to the massacre. Several citizens of the town called the nearby station to complain about 'feeling several things at once', 'sensing the anger of their neighbors', 'feeling unusual empathy'. Some also claimed to be psychic. Demands were made of nearby churches to come and exorcise what locals claimed were 'evil spirits'. The FBI suspects the town fell prey to a cult."


He highlighted the sentence about empathy and feelings and underlined the words 'massacre' and 'found dead'. Apparently, the stakes were a lot higher than just being haunted and feeling what everyone else did.

Sam set the book against the whiteboard and drew arrows towards it. Then, above the arrows, he wrote The library thinks this is important. Memories of the past = ghost of the past?
