Take a look, it's in a book


The Magic Library




  1. Haunted: There are ghosts in the stacks, and they are definitely disturbing the other patrons.
  2. Way into this book: No, literally--you are now in this book. Maybe it's the Great American Novel or maybe it's a suspense thriller. Whatever the plot, the only way out is to see it to the end.
  3. The characters are so real...! and in front of you, demanding your attention. That could be the other person in the thread! Or it could be frickin' Sauron.
  4. Dynamic Dewey Decimal: The shelves in here are curiously mobile. Whether you see it happening or not, it's soon obvious that the place has become a maze--and you're in the middle.
  5. Forbidden section: Every good magical library has one. Eldritch runes, lurking curses, a necromancer who's been waiting for someone to read him back to life--it's all in here, waiting to be uncovered.
  6. Magic for Dummies: Ever wanted to learn magic? Great! There's a bunch of easy how-to books right here! They're a little light on safety precautions, though....
  7. Sir you need a library card for that: You work here and you're trying to deal with an unruly patron... and the library is still magic. This is the most harrowing prompt on the list.
  8. Magic library? Really? Somehow, you are having a completely normal-ass time in here. That's remarkable in of itself.
  9. Wildcard!

Marie lightly gripped Nita’s hand, giving it a soft squeeze as she did.

“We’re gonna be a couple of icicles if we let this happen. I… wouldn’t mind it with you around.”
unfavorableinstigation: Nita looking slightly stage-left, smiling. (Smiling)

The plainness of the idea - the imagery of them being two ice-sculptures, standing close with each other - made her giggle.

Sidling fully up to Marie, she moved their hands to Marie's chest.

"Somehow, I don't think I would either."

Marie smiled as Nita slid in front of her, hands on her chest. Her free hand moved to wrap around her waist.

“You think… we can try that? In a way, it sounds… romantic.”

"With safety precautions, of course."

Nita winked. "I know I have time, but it'd be a pain if someone had to come looking for us!"

Marie giggled at that and nodded. “Do what you need to, okay? Got all the time you need.”
