Fandom High Library, Wednesday, 9/6

Angela came in a little late, clutching a mug of chai and a bagel like lifelines. She loaded a copy of the Sims into her "new" laptop and started trying to keep a very whiny miniature couple alive.

The library was open.

After Ms. Readman came in, Angela put a stack of applications on the counter and waited to see who would appply.

"Was your father a librarian?," Angela asked. "We prettty much have every book ever, here, in Special Collections even if it's not on the shelves."

"No, just a...scholar, I suppose you could say." Door's eyes widen. "Every book ever?"

"As far as I know," Angela said. "Or at least, everything anyone's ever looked for while I've been here. Which I guess isn't quite the same thing."

"Possibly not," Door agrees, though already she's wondering if the books and maps her father spent much of his life collecting are all somewhere on the shelves in this place, neatly arranged in numerical order. She glances again at the list of categories, looking rather like, well. Pie shop. "There's more types of book here than I've ever heard of, though. It should last me a while."

"Enough to last anyone a long time," Angela agreed. "Do you want to start with anything specific, or just look aroound and get your bearings?"

"Well..." Much as Door plans to wander among the books until she either gets lost or gets found, there is something specific she'd like to know. "I expect I can look it up myself, but I could use a push towards the right subject area." She pulls the library aide application out from under the Dewey Decimal handout, and points towards the bottom.

"What's a sweater?"

"Knitted thing, fuzzy, you wear it over your shirt when it's cold?," Angela said, a litle suurprised. The girl's clothing didn't look that odd. "Does it have a different name in England?"
