1st) Action / Open / Library

[There's really only one thing to do when you've been interdimensionally kidnapped and find yourself in a strange new world full of strange new people, strange new abilities and strange new... other things.

No, you don't run in circles and flail your arms around. That would be silly. Fun, but silly. You go to the library. No, you don't flail there, either.

This is why you might spot an annoyed, somewhat frazzled-looking (but still HANDSOME) blond guy in the library, browsing the shelves for basic info on this Strange New World, capitals intended.

Be careful. His assholery is currently set to MAX.]

What the- Why is there a cookery book in the geography section?

This is a library; you're being a little too loud.

[Instructor and authority voice is a go.]

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

Maybe the library should stop giving me reasons to be loud.

[forkgoeswest.livejournal.com]

It's not the library's fault. It's the fault of whoever put the book in the wrong section. Perhaps you should find them instead.

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

That would be a blatant waste of hours of my life. I have better things to do.

[bookshrew.livejournal.com]

Didn't you know? The road to culinary perfection is far more arduous than any trek up the highest peaks of the world. Without a map one can only hope to wander aimlessly through the valley of despair for the rest of their life.

How thoughtful of you. I do hope that you'll further extend your boundless magnanimity to include delivering this outstanding news while I'm near my fainting couch. I'd hate to go into a swooning fit and force you to step over my prone figure on the floor.

To be honest, if you're always this annoying, I'd just step on y-

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

Sorry. I'm a little touchy lately.

You are...?

[worthyheir]

[Had been attempting to read nearby. Key word being "had."]

Perhaps it's a book on the various types of food around the world. Who really cares?

Shut up. There is no reason to be so loud.

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

It still has no place among the geography books. Logic.

[worthyheir]

Who cares? Seriously, shut up or leave.

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

... I made one comment, at a fairly quiet volume. I'll submit myself for summary execution later sir.

[tortileghostwriter]

[Who's just sitting here reading the copy of House of Leaves he had on him when he got pulled into this crazy place? This guy. Whose shadow keeps on changing? This guy's. Whose voice echoes? This guy's. Looks quite a lot like the girl you ran into just a moment ago, actually.]

One won't get far on life's roads without a good meal, obviously.

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

...

I'll keep that in mind.

[tortileghostwriter]

[...wow that one was weak.]

But in all seriousness, keep your voice down.

[fierybluebird]

Is it specific to the countries here?

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

No, and unless 'Soup' is now a country, I don't care either way.

[fierybluebird]

Eh, don't fuss so much. Easily fixed. [Offers to take the book to re-align it.] Anything specifically you're looking for?

[notasidedick]

The culinary arts differ from all around the world. I suppose the library is trying to be accurate. [For a teacher, he sure acts like a kid. WHELP.]

In all honesty, some books will get misshelved once in awhile, or someone hurriedly put the book back there. I can have it shelved properly if you so wish to avert any geography and cooking crisis though.

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

That's stupid in so many ways, I'm not even going to bother listing them.

I'll put it back myself. Might as well memorize where everything is, while I'm here.

[notasidedick]

It's probably not why it's there, but I was trying to think of a good reason why it might other then just being misplaced.

You're fond of books then I presume.

[brightens]

Ah! Wait! [ She'd been seated on the other side of the library on the floor, browsing around the culinary section of the library... Looking for the very book the Handsome Frazzled Blond Man was currently holding.

She hops up and runs over to him, skidding to a stop before bouncing in place. ]

So that's where I put it!

[itsnotbunny.livejournal.com]

...

[brightens]

[ She nods! ] I was trying to hide it in case someone else came looking for it!

No one would look here, right? [ It was a clever plan! ]
