This is to inform you that the library is currently under my management. Any books returned with creases or stains will suffer a fine. I haven't decided what it will be, but rest assured, if you plan on borrowing books, there will be a contract for you to sign. Please check the fine print.

Your recommend reading for the month is this. Enjoy.

No, I suppose none of us do.

[ They're alive. Which is more that can be said for many others. ]

[hasitsthorns]

[ Yeah. Rose doesn't like to think about that. At least Caleb had left before things went south, but- She doesn't like to entertain the idea that others might not have gotten out alright. ]

At least we can make a difference here? That's kind of nice.

[dothelokimotion]

How can you tell?

[hasitsthorns]

About making a difference? It's, uh. A little complicated, I guess.

[ She'll try her best though. ]

I went home, not too long ago. For a few years. Even though I didn't remember this place while there, it definitely felt like F.A.T.E.S. and D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. had a hand in the way things happened once I did recall them.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Ah. Loki nods. ]

I had a . . . similar experience. It was disorientating.

[hasitsthorns]

Yeah, right? I was gone for four years, dude, but it was only a week here.

I'm still reeling from it, in some ways.

[dothelokimotion]

I believe it was close to five for me.

[ Give or take a few months here and there. Learning that he did return to Asgard instead of fleeing was . . . odd. Still him, though but odd. ]

[hasitsthorns]

Yikes. I thought I had it rough.

[ Rose found out she didn't die. Which, hey, was awesome.

Until the war started. ]

At least this is a nice little break for me from the fuckery happening back home.

[dothelokimotion]

[ To be fair, he didn't really have it rough. ]

What was happening to you at home?

[hasitsthorns]

A war. Dragons decided humans suck and that they should be purged from our reality.

Kind of a buzzkill.

[dothelokimotion]

[ That's fair. ]

An odd but not unusual take for dragons to believe in.

[hasitsthorns]

So I'm learning. Dragons are huge douchecanoes. Go figure!

[dothelokimotion]

Who knew? I certainly did not.

[hasitsthorns]

Me either. But they are. Well, at least one of them is. And that's all that the rest really needed to be assholes too.

[dothelokimotion]

It must have been a catchy trend.

[hasitsthorns]

It was. Good think I was always a non-conformist.

Besides, humans can be pretty useful. Good entertainment.

[dothelokimotion]

[ His lips twitch. Loki doubts he'll ever hold the same fondness for humans Thor does. That being said, there is no real hate either. ]

They have their moments.

[hasitsthorns]

[ Rose knows many in his position. No real love for humans but... they're alright. ]

I think so. Anyway, uh. Gonna' let you get back to that library thing. Good luck with it, dude.

[dothelokimotion]

Thank you.
