Library, Thursday (July 14)

[wildandbrave]

Cosette actually made it in to the library on time, which was a bit of a surprise given how lost she'd gotten early in the morning in the hedge maze she just couldn't help wanting to explore.

And then she'd slipped on the streets -- which appeared to be made of soap now -- and gone bouncing down them like a rubber ball, high arcing bounces complete with silly sound effects. She appreciated not actually being hurt by the incident . . . that is, once she had reassembled herself after shattering into hundreds of tiny pieces on impact and getting swept up by a self-operating dustpan and broom.

But she was here now! This had all been quite entertaining yesterday, but now it was getting to be quite a --

A piano came plummeting out of thin air as she pushed open the library doors, squashing her flat, and it was a few seconds before a very flat Cosette slid out of the edge of the impact crater, fluttered to the floor, then popped back into three-dimensional form again.

-- a hassle, she finally managed to think, swatting cartoon birds away from her still slightly dizzy head. It was getting to be a dreadfully inconvenient hassle.

Obi-Wan had fallen off a cliff today. This was strange in several respects, beginning at 'he wasn't usually so clumsy' and ending at 'he did not, in fact, wind up injured despite failing to use his Force powers and hitting the ground'.

After several more incidents, he'd decided to go to the library, just to see if there was, perhaps, something he needed to know.

"So," he said, sitting down with a few books, "I do believe the island's gone a bit strange."

"Only a bit," Cosette agreed dryly, emerging from the stacks with an armful of books and a harried expression. "You'll want to look out for falling anvils, should you happen to go into the technology section."

Obi-Wan heaved a profound and deep sigh. "Of course," he said. "And I suppose the culinary section also holds rather obvious dangers."

"Oh, of course. And some of the joke books might hit you with a fish, should you get too close. The library always does have its own dangers, but this week more so than usual," Cosette agreed with a sigh of her own, though it wasn't nearly as impressively profound or deep.
