Library, Monday
"Okay, so first off," Tip said, facing the crowd of books in the center of the library lobby. "We're not in England. Second, it's November 4th, not 5th. And most importantly: building a bonfire in a library is a really bad idea."
The books all rustled at her impatiently. Tip crossed her arms and stared them down.
"I really shouldn't have to explain all this to you. I know that's you in there, Fahrenheit 451. Where did you even get that mask?" She held out her hand. "Lighters and matches. Now."
She collected all their fire-making devices and put them away in the circulation desk. The books grumbled and started trundling back to the stacks, where the sun came streaming in the windows.
". . . Dammit, give me that magnifying glass, too!"
It was going to be a long day.
[open!]
