Who: Krista & YOU
Broadcast: Video!
Action: For all library visitors!
When: NOW?
[the fleet's resident, soft-spoken teen goth shows up on screen... backed by several bookcases filled with books! and maybe a couch back there. she waves, awkwardly.]
Uh, hey guys. Good news, the Bishop's library actually made it through the whole space-fight thing pretty well. The electronic tracking system is still down, but that's why people invented pencils and stuff.
[she gives the camera a funny look.] --No, actually, I'm pretty sure it's... the other way around. ... So nevermind.
[she holds up a very... charred-looking book. it had a red cover, once.]
The bad news is that "The Romantic History of the Galactiplastic Sector 9" totally bit it. So, uh. If there was a waiting list, we're gonna have to put this one on hold for a while. Alternatively, if anyone would like to play a little funeral tune, now's the time.
[she just. drops it flat on the floor. it's dead to her.]
So, um, for everyone who doesn't know... Me and a bunch of other people around here have been putting together a little library in the spare room on the Bishop... The ship's still kind of a mess from the fight, but anyone's welcome to come in and read or check out books, or whatever. We take donations and basically whatever stuff people bring us.
And we've got beanbags. And little lights that go "wowowo..." [accompanied with a little finger-wiggle and a totally straight face.] So if you're into that. This might be your jam.
---
[alternatively, if anyone comes to visit the library--it's a personnel room that's been outfitted with lots of bookcases, a couch, a table covered in archival materials, and several beanbags that you can drag around and sit in...
the collection is still small, but there's a little something for everybody! fiction, nonfiction, history, magic, charts, maps, comic books, whatever. Krista's around, probably putting books back on a shelf.]

Oh, yeah, totally! If you don't mind leaving it with us for a few days, I know a guy who'd probably jump at the chance to write out a copy. That sounds cool as hell.
no subject
For some reason, there is a "human" category - it is mostly random brigands and various assassins those that filled the book out encountered, so it may not be entirely necessary to copy that section. [ He's not being entirely honest about the contents of that section - there are also soldiers, the owners themselves, a commandant, and he has a few entries. It's a little weird.
But here, holding it out. ]
no subject
Did you just pull that out of a pocket dimension?
no subject
If "pocket dimension" is "space that doesn't match up with physical limitations of pockets", then yes.
no subject
Is that a... spell... or just a thing that you do, or...?
no subject
Spell that has become something I "just do"? [ ... He really has to think on it. ]
... Yes, a small accessing .. spell, to something made years prior. [ So small he restores the cost without noticing. ]
no subject
[she doesn't see. but... she'll just metaphorically book mark this topic for later, looking down at the book again. holding out her hands.]
Well, um. Okay, we'll take the book. I think we can get it back to you in just a couple of days, is that okay? Like, three?
no subject
That works. [ Wait something important. ]
I'm Duke, on the Pathstone. [ .. It's unlikely there's other Dukes out there, but shh. ]
no subject
I have a friend on the Pathstone, so I'll just come bring this to you myself when we're done.
no subject
Thank you. [ ... he can't think of much else to say - she already said she would have other reasons to be on the Pathstone, so it clearly isn't going to bother her.
... Awkwardly shift on his heels before looking at the shelves again, go? ]
