Fallen Petal 06 [Video Feed]

[empressofflowers]

[The video feed turns on to show Ceireia sitting at a desk covered with books. In the background are many rows of shelves of books. The windows are covered with dark, heavy looking drapes. Shifting a few of the stacks of books onto a cart, she begins to speak.]

I don't know who's been making a mess of the shelves, but know one thing. I will find you. I just want to make that clear.

Also, if I catch any more of you in here with food or drink, you'll be receiving detention.

[After moving another small stacks of books on the cart, she turns off the feed.]

[Hey, if someone has been burning the books, FYI? It isn't her.]

Are the students giving you a hard time?

[action]

[empressofflowers]

[She looks up from the stacks of books in front of her, apparently trying to put them back in order.]

Unfortunately. I'll catch whoever it is eventually.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

They are, as a matter of fact. I suspect a few books are missing, as well.

Little 'ooligans don't 'ave any respect fer this place.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

None at all. They'll have to be taught better.

[action]

[bye_to_yer_head]

Good luck with that. I'll believe it when I'm noit scraping gum off th' ceiling fer an hour a day.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

Well, we can hope, right?

[action]

[bye_to_yer_head]

Hn.

*He is unconvinced.*

Maybe if th' little buggers actually stayed in class when they were supposed t'.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

Sadly, it seems to be impossible to keep track of them all.

[action]

[bye_to_yer_head]

Shouldn't be that hard. There's noit that many of 'em.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

Well, if you turn around to help one...

[She gestures to the unorganized books in front of her.]

...you give another the opportunity to do things like this.

[action]

Little ankle biters are probably workin' in teams.

[action]

[notintehkitchen.livejournal.com]

Could you tell what the books were about?

[action]

[empressofflowers]

[Ceireia sighs to herself.]

That wouldn't surprise me.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

I'd have to take a look after I've put all of these back in their places. It just feels like there's some missing.

[action]

They'll regret it later when all they can get is jobs flippin' burgers since they can't make coherent sentences.

[action]

[notintehkitchen.livejournal.com]

Well, there's always a good way to get someone talking.

[Pyro snaps her fingers and sparks come flaring up from her fingertips. For a brief moment, the sparks turn into flames and form a small fireball in her palm.]

[About as soon as she has turned off the feed the sound of books falling can be heard.]

[action]

[empressofflowers]

[And she's going to picture that for a moment, before bursting into laughter.]

[action]

[empressofflowers]

[Plant girl, books, and fire? That might've just been a mixture of fear and hatred in her eyes there for a moment. Although, she's shaking almost violently.]

P...put that out. Now.

[Action]

[empressofflowers]

[That aisle is going to get a nasty glare. Footsteps can be heard as Ceireia comes to investigate.]

[Action]

[chibibrushheir]

[Shee'll find one neat stack of picture books and one pile of books that seems to have a tail.]

[Lynx was looking for poultry book between class. Something to read in his down time. He walks by the desk with the book in hand.]

"Kids giving you trouble?"

[He said and rest the book on the desk.]
"just this."

[action]

[notintehkitchen.livejournal.com]

[Pyro doesn't notice, but soon enough she puts the flame out anyways.]

No worries, I won't damage your precious books.

[action]

[bye_to_yer_head]

And you won't even 'ave t' tip 'em.

I see any 'f your books around, I'll let ya know.

[action]

[empressofflowers]

Thank you. Hopefully none have been ruined.

[And you just got flashed one of her rare smiles.]

[action]

[empressofflowers]

[You're still being glared at.]

You should know better than to play with fire inside a library of all places.

[Action]

[empressofflowers]

[She's just going to facepalm for a moment.]

Who let an animal in here?

[Ceireia begins picking the books up off of Chibi.]

[action]

[empressofflowers]

Unfortunately. There are a few that behave themselves though.

[She takes the book and scans it into the system, before handing it back to him.]

You're all set.

*He tips his hat and pushes his cart out of the library. The work of a janitor is never done.*

[action]

[lcat_no45]

That's good at least. Usually if the kids misbehave in gym I would have them run laps until they couldn't run no more.

[He chuckles to the thought of this, it is funny site to see their legs give out on them.]

[Takes the book from her, and then holds it in his hand.]

Thanks.

Hey if you fine out who is doing that, let me know and I will punish them in gym for you.

[Chibi wags his tail gratefully, setting the book in his mouth neatly on the stack he'd already started. Then he produces his student I.D. and a pass for him to be there, and starts helping clean up the mess he made.]
