Three Bells: [WRITTEN] - New Horizons in Lit Appreciation

[simplestgift]

They have everything Shakespeare ever wrote in the library.  Everything!  It's a fountain of gold.  I could spend days here.  I'd sleep here if they'd let me.  I don't think I've ever been happier.  And there's no theatre group here?  None?  Do people here not realize what they have?  What kind of a world is this?

In case anyone asks, I'll be in the library for the rest of my life.

[Or really just the rest of the day.   At some point he'll have to come up for air and grab something to eat at the 7th Heaven, where he'll be buried in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.  It'll be dark before he goes home, carrying only a single book.]

[ time to take her mind of the horror of what she saw at jack's this morning. so, in a cheeky scribble: ]

Her curfew is 11:30. Just so you know.

[If only you could see him beaming. And blushing, just a little.]

She'll not be a minute later.

I mean it -- she'd better not be, 'cause she lives with a vampire and he's totally big on punctuality.

[ she doesn't mean it. she be trolling. ]

Right. How was your birthday, Buffy?

[herotypical]

It was good. Merriness was made. How was your not-birthday?

[ written ]

[simplestgift]

Very good, as far as they go. [Leaving out the messiness with Jack and McCoy.] Many happy returns, by the by.

Thanks. You're really keen on the library thing?

[ she isn't, but she knows dawn is. ]

I'm keen on the reading thing. Books were something like my hiding place when things got rough. Not many of those on a ship, so you have to make them yourself.

I'm guessing the book of the month club doesn't reach the high seas.

There's a lot of off-key singing and drunken stories, but it's not much of a substitute.

[herotypical]

Speaking of drunken stories -- how was your morning after?

[written]

[simplestgift]

My afternoon after, you mean? Hell. I visited Doctor McCoy and he gave me a cup of coffee. Though I believe the kitten must have had as many healing powers as the coffee. Where did you get it?

Not from a poker game, if that's what you're wondering.

I am getting Andrew to adopt me.

You can't borrow his sweaters.

[tothelibrary.livejournal.com]

He's skinny, I could if I wanted to.

[ written ]

[herotypical]

Okay. Let me bookmark this conversation for the next time you want to borrow my LBD.

...I could get Willow to adopt me? Or Spike.

[ written ]

[herotypical]

Last I checked, Spike didn't wear them either. But you're welcome to double-check.

That wasn't what I meant, oh god mental images.

[ written ]

[herotypical]

That's why you can't disown me. I'd have no younger sister brain to scar.

[ written ]

[tothelibrary.livejournal.com]

That doesn't even make any sense.

[ she loves you buffy, really. ]

[ written ]

[herotypical]

Says the girl doing the library circuit for a first date.

[ no you don't make any sense. and neener neener neener enacting sister trollage rights. ]
