Wednesday 3/15, Library is Open

Zero opened up the library, as usual, and settled in behind the desk to be available for all the student body's libraryish needs. Which frequently seemed to consist of gossiping and bringing the aides pastry, but hey, she wasn't complaining.

Nadia blinked. "A book?" She closed her eyes. "Don't tell me, it's written in rhyme?"

"Yeah, probably. Dr. Seuss is loads of fun. I think the one with the lorax is about environmentalism."

Nadia pressed her palm to her forehead. "Is there one about star-bellied sneeches?"

Re: Third Period

"Um." Zero wracked her childhood memories. When she was small, Dirk or Nikki or Rat would read Seuss to her and explain the sociopolitical messages behind the rhymes. Activist parents (and siblings) could be such fun. "Yeah, isn' that the one about racism? The star-bellied sneetches wouldn' let the plain-bellied ones play with them."

Nadia grumbled something completely stolen from Anya in the episode "Triangle" of Buffy the Vampire Slayer about people referencing cultural things that she couldn't possibly know about.

Mac and Xander had been messing with her. Well, she'd have to have her revenge. Her sneaky revenge.

Maybe Marty could help?

"Thanks. So do you think the library has any of Dr. Sue--I mean, Dr. Seuss's books?"

Zero has no idea Nadia has never heard of Dr. Seuss. "Hmm. They're children's books, and this is a high school library. So I'm pretty sure we have 'em--I can't imagine why we wouldn't--but there hasn't been much call for them. You might wanna check the card catalogue."

Nadia nodded. "Okay, I'll do that. Thanks again."
