Library, Thursday 7/14

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Why was the library ceiling missing a section? Why were there plastic tarps covering some of the shelves? Why were there blueprints on a table?

Belle had no idea. It wasn't as if anyone informed library staff when things were planned in here, or when they weren't planned.

The desk seemed unaffected, at least, so she sat down there to check in some books that had appeared since the last time someone was there.

"You're boasting about committing crimes," Belle pointed out. "Honestly, Five."

What? She could smile about that. It was kind of hot interesting when he talked like this!

"It's not a boast. It's just facts." And kinda boasty.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"It sounds like boasting," Belle informed him.

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"And you are enjoying it," he replied smugly.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"Why do you think that?" Belle asked while not even attempting to deny that accusation.

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"You aren't yelling at me." Oh, if that was his measure of people liking him...

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"I only yell when you deserve it!"

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"I never deserve it."

Oh, that was patently false.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"That is one of the most ridiculous things you've ever said to me, Five."

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"I rarely deserve it," he amended. "Because I'm usually correct about things."

Okay, he totally believed that one.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"You're correct often," Belle allowed. "I'm not certain usually is the word I would choose."

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"Name one time I was wrong," Five countered.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"I seem to remember someone arguing with me about magic when we first met?"

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

...rude.

"Because magic is ridiculous."

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"No more ridiculous than anything else here!"

Less ridiculous than many things here, actually.

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"I beg to differ," Five huffed. But then again, he was raised by an alien, a talking chimpanzee, and a robot alongside his super powered siblings. So...

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Belle had traveled via magic bean and had no room to talk about ridiculousness.

"How is magic more ridiculous than you turning into a cat?"

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"Some people turn into cats!" He had no evidence of this. None.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"You and your brother do," Belle agreed. "Which seems like magic to me."

Re: Talk to Belle

[apocalypsehow]

"You would think so." Oh yeah, that was a great argument, Five.

Re: Talk to Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"I just said it," Belle said with a roll of her eyes. "Obviously I think so."
