Library, Wednesday

[era_two_triangle]

Wow, the library was quiet today. Just eerily, completely silent. There wasn't even the occasional rustle of paper as somebody turned a page or a book got itself up to some mischief.

Peridot opened her mouth to announce that she didn't trust it. No sound came out at all.

She frowned at that, and then thumped her fists on the returns desk a few times with similar results.

And then, just to be sure, she opened a door and slammed it repeatedly, hoping for a different result.

This was going to just keep escalating. Don't even ask where she found that trumpet.

[OOC: Open! Quiet! But open!]

"Why," said Sidon, sweeping his arms open grandly and laughing, "it's none other than Hyrule, my home world, and Zora's Domain, my kingdom! I intend to spend a portion of the next week back in my wonderful watery birthplace, and I thought it would be a much more enjoyable journey should some of my dearest friends be able to accompany me."

He couldn't help grinning fondly down (and down and down!) at those wide-eyes. "Though, of course, if you don't think you'd want to, I'd understand."

"Ooo!" Peridot jumped from one foot to the other a few times excitedly. "No no no, I do! When do we leave? What should I bring? Should I bring something to take notes?"

Research! Learning! Yes!

Sidon chuckled, pleased and completely charmed that Peridot might be as excited about it as he hoped she would be. "I was planning to depart quite early on Tuesday morning," he explained. "I believe that is the First of May in the calendar followed here on Earth, to return on Friday the Fourth, not a very long stay, but certainly long enough to experience a little more of Hyrule than just Zora's Domain, if you and the others wish, and to get us back with plenty of time before the start of the new semester and the welcome picnic for new students. I imagine you should be fine with bringing just yourself and your endearing, wonderful thirst for new experiences, and I'm sure it would be wise to bring something to take notes if you so desire, but keep in mind, Zora's Domain is much, much...wetter than Fandom Island."

"Wetter," Peridot said thoughtfully, pacing back and forth with her trumpet in hand. "Wetter. I'll need a means to take notes in an aquatic environment. I can do that."

She probably could. Odds were it would be a very confusing invention. But she had time to do it.

"Others?"

"Whatever you come up with," Sidon said brightly, with a pump of his fist, "I'm sure it will be brilliant! And, yes, I was hoping to extend an invitation to all of the dearest friends I've made while attending school here. The more, the merrier, after all! I plan to invite my own little sibling Norman to come along, as well as Tip and Breq. They have heard me talk endlessly about my cherished home that they will no doubt be a bit curious to see it with their own eyes! Uma, as well, I have not known her for as long, but I do think she would enjoy it and I'd very much like to show her some things. Also, I will extend an invitation to my roommate Paris, though, truth be told, I do not think she is likely to take me up on it. I...think she gets quite enough Zora from living with me to last her for a good while."

There was a faint, somewhat sad pause there, but he brightened back up quickly, with a particular sharpness to his grin and a bit of a playful wink.

"Naturally, though, you are the very first person I wanted to invite."

[era_two_triangle]

"Oh! I know most of them!"

And she even liked most of them! That was very exciting!

"And naturally I'm the first. I am your sibling, after all!"

Well, so was Norman, but he was a little little sibling, which was less exciting.
