111 - Go Go Power Rangers

Two days, and I have not felt a pang of hunger or ever a hint of thirst. How fortuitous. And even more so, it appears as if I feel no exhaustion either. All fine aspects to this loss. Unfortunately, I am completely unable to do anything with them on account of the fact that I look like a complete and utter fool.

Thus, I remain locked in my room, looking like some rejected children's TV hero. And completely and utterly mortal, save for a lack of thirst, hunger, and fatigue. And as I have recently discovered, all this started on my year long anniversary. How touching that you remembered, Cair Paradisa.

But you crossed the line when you took from me my amulet. I forgave you the first time, I will not be so kind this time.

I require books. I don't care as to which, and I want as many as one can bring.

If you don't care for which books they are, might I ask what it is you intend on doing with them?

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

I intend to read them.

[haveto-believe.livejournal.com]

Ahh...so you are just looking for anything to read? That's very inquisitive of you. I approve.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

I'm doing it out of necessity, as there is precious little for me to busy myself with at the moment.

[haveto-believe.livejournal.com]

Well, reading is always a valuable choice to make. The library here is quite extraordinary.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

Knowledge is power, after all. Just a sharp as any sword and as destructive as any magic. And yes, this library does have quite the array of books.

[haveto-believe.livejournal.com]

Yes, exactly! I do wish more people realized that.

I've never seen it's like.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

We are a rare breed, it seems. True appreciators of what knowledge can truly reap.

Likely because no world has access to as many different books as this one.

[haveto-believe.livejournal.com]

So few seem to grasp the concept. They disdain the knowledge kept in books, only to falter and find their plans failing again and again.

I cannot seem to pull away from it, much to the amusement of my acquaintances.

[tornado-piled.livejournal.com]

Dude, just ask the ghosts.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

If I was interested in asking the ghosts, I would have. I have my reasons for not asking them.

[tornado-piled.livejournal.com]

Like?

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

The ghosts lack taste and preference, for instance.

[tornado-piled.livejournal.com]

Tough shit. Can't get your own?

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

I would not be wasting my time with this if I were.

[tornado-piled.livejournal.com]

Sucks to be you.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

Are you quite finished, or do your have more idiotic ramblings to waste my time with?

[tornado-piled.livejournal.com]

You could just not read the stupid journal.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

I see you've opted for more stupidity then.

Having stated a request, ignoring the journal would be unwise and impractical. However, since you seem intent on simply wasting my time, I have no issue with ignoring you.

[tornado-piled.livejournal.com]

Lots of words for saying one stupid thing, dude.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[Alas, he has since moved on to other things, so consider this the recorded sound of being ignored.]

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[Just as always, it starts with her being a stalker.]

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[Oh you. Stalk away, Ms. Pluto. Stalk to your heart's content.]

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[Then after a lot of off and on stalking with no one else offering, she finally decides "Oh, fine, I'll do it. >|"]

I could bring something down.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[Pen taps...]

Very well. Leave them just outside my door.

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[Timeskip while she tries to find something that isn't either incredibly ancient, in Japanese, or an instruction manual?]

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[Vergil is waiting patiently in his room, waiting for some books to busy himself with.]

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[So she arrives with a decent selection of books. Yes, they're all in English. She briefly considers knocking on the door and giving the books to him herself, but she ends up just leaving them outside the door and walking away.]

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[When the coast is hopefully clear, he opens the door up and spots the books, gathering them up carefully.]

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[It's not as clear as he'd like. Setsuna was going back up the stairs when she heard the sound of an opening door and glanced back. She doesn't have much of a reaction, though. There's just a raised eyebrow and a pause in footsteps.]

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[Thankfully, he doesn't actually catch Setsuna spotting him. He just quickly rushes back into his room. The following is written for her to marvel at later]

My thanks.

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[This is also written, but later.]

You're quite welcome.

[Some pen taps, then...]

I won't let anyone know what I saw.

[devil-blue.livejournal.com]

[Sharp line drawn across the page before he realizes it. Damnable eyes]

I appreciate it.

[key-of-time.livejournal.com]

[At least she let him know~

And the journal shuts now!]

[Pen is pressed down for a moment before the page is turned.]
