[kA]

(Enters, whistling a happy tune, and clutching a pad and pencil)

Well now.. (Surveys the shelves of dusty manuscripts).. It was in here somewhere!

Oh,
*stirs in sleep

[kA]

(Surveys the biped librarian with regal, yet amused, interest)


If I can just remember what I was reading at the time... Perhaps this librarian may recall where I was...

(Reads name badge. Gently lifts arm to continue reading name badge. Replaces arm and moves around the back of the chair to cntinue reading name badge..)


To wake, or not to wake? To leave alone perchance to dream on...

oh, hello *crash Oh, my leg has gone dead

[kA]

Well it is a good thing that you have two then. Now, before you get all maudlin about the mere loss of a limb, can you remember where I was reading that rather rude book about 101 things to do with a stale baguette??

[qG]
*enters*
Oh, here you are.
*sighs and leaves*

[kA]

(Hears sigh and turns just in time to see her slipping out)

Hey, G !!

(Runs to door and looks out, just in time to see her robe flutter and disappear around a corner in the corridor.)

(Shouts) Go back to your brawny soldier boy then!! See if I care!! You'll come running when you need a real man!! Hah!

(Returns to Library, shuts door and leans back against it)

(To self, quietly) If she only knew how much I care!!

(To Librarian) Come on boy, you must remember me! Where was I??

[qG]
*s back*

[qG]
I'm sorry

(With affected nonchalance) Oh, hi. You're back then?

Don't suppose you would be interested in looking for some long lost dusty volumes right at the back here, behind these tall shelves, hidden from the view of the sleeping librarian?

[qG]
Sure
Whatever you want...

I don't suppose you could stand on this ladder and reach that book right up there (pointing to the top shelf) for me? Please.

[qG]
*climbs up*
Which one?

[Mysterious Lady wearing mask]

*bangs door on way in*

Oops, .

*tiptoes in*

*drops book named "101 things to do with a stale baguette" in front of Librarian rather loudly*


That was rather good, surf. Got any more?

[qG]
*looks down*
Hello?
Which one?
Don't forget me again

*from slumber over desk in response to lound sound of book being thrown on desk

"ahhhhh!",
*leaps up and climbs to the top of the nearest (and largest) book shelf which wobbles slightly,
"who did that?" *throws a small leather-bound edition of The holey Graille to the floor and jumps off shelf
hay how!: I think i have the book you were looking for *picks up book and flips through some of the pages

[kA]

**Lost in reverie as he gazes up at his Queens derriere**

**Rudely disturbed by book banging and very loud whispering**

What the...???

**Resumes reverie**

[kA]

**Without unfastening his gaze, gives regal shout over shoulder to librarian**

Try No. 63, my friend. On yourself!!

[qG]

Hello?

[kA]

Sorry, my dear, I was just lost in admiration. Permit me to support you.
