Mingle: For a limited time only...

Who: Everyone!
Where: Anywhere on the hub
When: Days 134-139
Open/Closed: Open mingle goooo!

[Copper, lizards, and vines - oh my! With the recent installation of 9S and co.'s scanning equipment and the also recent, significantly wetter rainstorms there's quite a lot to check out on the island right now. Plus, the monitor robot still needs a name. You're not going to leave them nameless forever, are you?

Too bad Genette's put out word that everyone's about to be moving location soon. That means these are the last days the coven has for a little while to get everything in order, whether it's to take things to the next destination or to leave them behind. Get your bags packed and your huts cleaned, everyone!]

Some of the books do have pictures, actually! Let me see...

[he sets his book aside and starts digging through another pile, flipping through a few pages and passing her two books. one of them has pictures of various kinds of plants on some pages, and the other has detailed studies of architecture.]

Those ones have been helping me translate; you can tell from the pictures what kind of books they're supposed to be, so it's easiest to try and piece things together from them.

[ She looks over the books, slowly smiling. If Laphicet were here - there's no doubt that he'd be fascinated by all of this. ]

I see. I think I know what you mean. It still looks a little difficult to make sense of it, but... that's a good start.

[Laphicet has good taste in books 1 out of 1 Soreys would agree]

It might not be the best to do any kind of research with, but hopefully it's still worth your time. Is there anything in particular that you were looking for?

Any that you would recommend taking a look at would be great start.

[ She offers a smile. He does seem to know what he's talking about. ]

The ones you can read are going to be your best bet. Just to start, anyways.

[he says it a little wryly; there aren't too many books in the library that he can read, and most of them just contain the same information that Genette has produced for them in their arrival letter. Hence resorting to translating the other books there, with varying luck. but he manages to pull one out of the pile and hands it to her as well.]

There's a lot here, so I don't know how much my recommendations would help. But I can find a few more for you if you don't think that's enough.

No-- this is more than enough to start with, thank you.

[ She speaks softly, nodding his head politely. ]

It sounds as though you've made time to look through most of the books here. [ Would someone be able to do that in a short amount of time? There's been so much to do. ]
