The herpetology books were going wild today. They were everywhere, except where they were supposed to be. You know, properly shelved in their respective locations. Arden could kind of get where the snake books were coming from, this was clearly some kind of St. Patrick's protest or something, but she was definitely side-eying the other reptile and amphibian books participating in this, too

"This is starting to feel more like a reenactment of the Plagues than anything else," she informed the five books about frogs that she swept up and moved from her seat behind the circulation desk. I think message is getting lost."

Gray paused inside the doorway and eyed the books suspiciously. "Do I wanna know?"

"The snake books are protesting St. Patrick's Day, and the rest of the herpetology section are taking advantage of it, is the best I can figure out," Arden said with a long-suffering sigh.

"Why are they protesting St. Patrick's Day?" Gray, who for a Nephilim and a deadly sin knew very little about the whole Christian theology thing, asked, confused. "Do snakes hate Ireland?" Were they English snakes?

"Saint Patrick chased all the snakes out of Ireland," Arden said. "And the snake books think this is, like, glorifying snake prejudices. I think."

"Well, that was rude of him," Gray decided. "I support the books' right to protest." Not helping, Gray.

The glare Arden leveled at Grey suggested she agreed with the narrative. "You gonna help pick them all up and shelve them properly when they're done?"

The avatar of Sloth responded by looking shifty. "Uh..."

Re: Talk to the Aide

Arden just nodded. Knowingly. "We're not vocally supporting the books' right to protest unless we're materially supporting the library aide."

"I can...materially support the library aide with waffles?" Gray tried, hoping she would say yes so he would have an excuse to make Raiden make waffles, as opposed to having to try to remember how the Dewey decimal system worked. (Did they even use that any more...?)

Re: Talk to the Aide

"...The library aide can be materially supported by waffles," Arden decided. Because she knew that they would be Raiden's waffles and those were, almost definitionally, delicious.

"Yay!" Gray exclaimed. "With chocolate chips??" His were going to have chocolate chips regardless, because Raiden knew him.
