Library is Open, 4/5

[swerval_zero]

Zero opened up the library, as was usual for her on Wednesdays, and briefly disappeared into the stacks looking for something to occupy her time. She returned with The Pearl Blade, the third in the "Jewels of the Caribbean" series by Angelica Demesnes, her new favorite author.

Angela shook her head. "Parker said the same thing, and she added that he's calmer than he used to be. Which is true. But -" she flailed. "One of him, a whole bunch of other people with guns, you know?"

"Not that I'm helping by obsessing about the worst."

"Maybe your way works. I mean, if you're expecting the worst, when it comes out all right you're pleasantly surprised. I'd opt for cautious optimism, though."

"Right. New middle name: Angela Cautious-Optimism Chase," Angela sighed. "Because otherwise, I will drive myself crazy."

"It's a good name for you." Zero is not considering naming her firstborn Cautious Optimism. Really.
