Book Fair

[rup-giles.livejournal.com]

Giles had gotten up at ack o'clock and actually had toted five boxes of books to the Fandom High Gym before he "cheated."

Everything was now set up neatly on tables, and separated by genre.

There was also coffee and hot water urns, bottled water, and a variety of pastries and breads set on a table near the register.

The First Annual Fandom High Book Fair was open for business.

[ooc: Hang on to your collective hats while I get the OCD threads up, please.

Threads are UP. Whew. I think you all know how this works. Go look for a book. Up to you whether you find it or not. No, there is no magic/new age section. Yes, Giles has planned it that way.

That's it! Go to town! Wait. No. Stay here and buy stuff...]

"So I've noticed," Tempe replied, breaking her muffin in half and then in quarters, and then eating a piece. "You're also a very accepting bunch as well."

Tempe couldn't help but giggle as well. "I'll bet she does."

Tempe shuddered at the thought of sleeping under mosquito netting. "I'd probably get all tangled in it. I already have a habit of doing it with my blankets. I'd probably yank it down in the middle of the night and accidentally bind my arms and legs in it."

She shook out an arm. All this talking about being bound and tangled was making her feel a little bit closed in.

Elizabeth nodded. "It's one of the things that's so great about this place. I just wish we could bottle what it is that makes it so accepting," she said, grinning slightly ruefully.

"I have photos," Elizabeth nodded, grinning broadly. "She'll kill me when she finds out how many!"

"I yanked it down the first couple of nights," Elizabeth admitted. "But if it's a choice of netting or mosquitos using you as an all-night, all-they-can-suck buffet? Netting wins hands down!"

"Yeah, and then sell it over the world," Tempe replied. "Actually, no, forget selling it. We could just give it away. Maybe then people would be more inclined to consume it and stop starting wars."

"Oh, these are photos I have to see!" Tempe said, giggling.

"That reminds me. I have a scrapbook I'm supposed to be doing for Arts & Crafts, and I need some pictures of people I've met. Mind if I take a picture of you?" Tempe asked, reaching into her bag to pull out her new disposable camera.

"Hmm. Tough choice. You're right, though. It would probably be better just to drown in netting."

"Oh absolutely give it away," Elizabeth nodded. "Stick it in the water supplies and actually have peace."

"I'll develop them in my photography workshop next Wednesday," Elizabeth said, still grinning. "So, I'll probably have them on me that afternoon."

"Oh, okay, sure," Elizabeth said, putting down her coffee.

She nodded. "Eventually you get used to it."

"Water supply! That's even better!" Tempe exclaimed. "We'd just have to get people who are really good at sneaking into places to do it. Because I think some of the world's drinking water reservoirs are pretty heavily protected."

"Oh good. I'll have to come and find you next Wednesday though," Tempe said. "Um, what room are you in? That might make it a little easier to track you down."

Tempe snapped a few pictures of Elizabeth, put the camera back in her bag and grinned. "Thanks. Now at least I'll have pictures of one person in my otherwise Fandom-scenery-filled scrapbook."
