Library, 5/29

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

It's a Monday. And a holiday. Work? Bah.

Yet here Tyler is, sitting behind the desk at the Fandom High Library paging through Slaughterhouse-5 Killingfloor-6. The library is open for business.

[OOC: Open. No OCD threads 'cause it's summer, yo.]

A momentary look of panic crossed Tyler's face. "Is preternatural the same as supernatural?"

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Yes," Dawn nodded.

Tyler nodded and tapped at the keyboard. "I think most of what you can check out is on that shelf, to the left, though some stuff is scattered. Are you looking for anything in particular, or just everything weird?"

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn realized a bit belatedly that she was talking to one of the enemy. Better to keep things as vague as possible. "Um, just general Fandom weirdness."

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Ohkaaaay," Tyler drawled.

He pointed. "That shelf. And the actual books with spells are locked up, and I don't know how to get to them yet. You need to ask Rory."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that's okay, I don't need spells," Dawn assured him, heading over to the shelf and beginning to browse through the titles, pulling interesting-looking books down from the shelves.

Molly showed up not too long after that. "Sorry I'm late."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"No problem," Dawn turned, arms full of books. "I may have gotten carried away, but these should at least give us some ideas."

She set the books on a nearby table with a loud thump and sat down in a chair, opening the one that looked oldest. "Ready for a very, very boring day?"

Isabel came in smiling rather happily. "Hey guys..."

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

On Molly and Isabel's arrivals, Tyler twigged to the fact these were both meerkats, reading books about paranormal stuff, on his watch.

He prepared himself for an interesting day and started contemplating possible ways to get back at them. He still liked the Nair in the shampoo bottles idea.

Molly may have looked a bit intimidated at the pile of books. "I guess I'll have to be. I'm not usually the one doing research, but I want to help find something good," she glanced briefly over at Tyler and dropped her voice to a whisper, "to get back at those Stickbugs."

Molly looked up at Isabel with a grin as she pulled one of the newer books out of the pile and opened it up. "Hey."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Howdy!" Isabel took a seat and grabbed the nearest book. "I'm sure we'll manage to find something that will be perfect for them." Opening the book she skimmed down the table of contents, still smiling. "So what's up with everyone?" she asked as she flipped through the pages.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn handed Isabel a book at random, wondering about the grin, but deciding to ask her later. "I want this to look completely casual," she whispered, "and, if possible, as little like a prank as possible."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel took the book and rested it next to the one she already had open. "That makes sense to me. It'll just be one of those random Fandom invasions. Too bad we can't get the weetiny bunnies back."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Got, it," Molly said with a nod to Dawn and turned to Isabel with a grin. "Right, something natural. The weetiny bunnies would be fun."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Can you imagine them hanging on the Stickbugs? And hugging them?" Isabel snickered quietly at the image and looked down at the book. "Well if we can't figure out a way to get them back, maybe we can find something equally as cute and possibly annoying." She grinned one last time and then settled down to read. Still smiling of course.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn's curiosity about Isabel's smile was killing her. Stupid priorities.

"Oooh, cute and annoying. Like them." Because, really, they were quite cute.

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly giggled. "Very fitting," she said.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Did anyone bring a notebook?" Dawn asked, looking at the other girls. "I forgot."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly gave her a blank look. "No, I didn't think about it," she said.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Darn it," Dawn sighed. "I guess we'll just have to mark the pages that seem good."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Okay." Molly began flipping through the book.

"Ooo!" she said after a while. She slid the book so that the other girls could see it as well. "What about... oh, no, maybe not. We don't want anybody to get eaten. Nevermind." She pulled the book back toward her.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, eaten is bad," Dawn nodded sagely. "I'd also recommend avoiding anything that involves singing or dancing."

"Just trust me on this one."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly grinned. "Yeah, we've had that happen here already." She went back to reading.

"Did anyone mysteriously go missing afterwards? Or during?" She asked, thinking of her almost-stint as a child bride. Dawn turned a page. "Ooh. Little blue creatures. Not sure what the hats are about, though."
