Interesting place you've got here. Thank you for the [...] warm welcome.

[DM: BRODERICK BEST]

Dear Dr Best,

I have been informed that you are the former Head Librarian at this institution and the current Head of Knowledge. I am the Head Librarian at Quest Fellowship and will be visiting for the next little while. Please do let me know if it would be possible to inspect peruse your facilities. I've read some of your work, and am interested to hear your thoughts and experiences within this iteration of the Society thus far.

Sincerely,
Elliott Woodhouse, BA, MLIS, PhD
Head Librarian
Quest Fellowship

[...] You don't think your organisation is of interest to anyone?

[sealskinsuit]

We throw proms and make doodads and everyone is always kissing. We’re not hurting anyone. Your boss should let us be.

[bookplate]

I'm afraid I'm not the one to make your appeals to. I'm but a librarian.

[sealskinsuit]

Ah, cool. I am too. But I’ve pitched a fit and I’ll be assistant to the Head of Knowledge over here, which seems much easier. He’s pretty fastidious himself. He used to be the Head Librarian, so he likely kens how to do everything and he’ll not need me from much. Our current Head Librarian is Hannah Behzadi though and she’s the best!

[abracadavers]

Ainslie.

[sealskinsuit]

What did I do? Is all that not true?

[abracadavers]

Did you request to become my assistant because you thought it would be easier?

[sealskinsuit]

The job description suits my skill set. I’ll be braw at making sure people dinnae bother you. Nigh impossible to get through me.

[bookplate]

Well, I would like to meet the entire library team if given the opportunity, but I'll leave that ball in your court.

[sealskinsuit]

We’ll be at the Bone Yard. I’ll make sure of it.

[bookplate]

Oh, splendid. I'll be there as well.

[bahbie]

HI! I'm Barbie and I'm on the library team, but I'm very new!

[bookplate]

Hello, Barbie! It's very lovely to meet you. I'm Elliott Woodhouse, Head Librarian at Quest Fellowship.

[bahbie]

Welcome to our lovely home (and library)! ❤️

[wingfella]

Ohhhhhh, who are the couples?

[sealskinsuit]

Well, me and my Knife of Righteousness, Jiayuan, for one.

Not so many couples here, but there’s still lots of kissing. The Housekeeper and the Head of the Prom Committee had a kissing competition just yesterday.

[wingfella]

What is a Knife of Righteousness?

Was it a competition for how long they could kiss?

[sealskinsuit]

It’s a handsome knife and when you make a pact with him, he turns into lad who has to commit a righteous murder for you. But we’re negotiating that still.

That would have been more interesting. But it was a quantity over quality type competition.

[wingfella]

That is an interesting dynamic for a relationship. Do you have any responsibility to commit a crime for this Jiayuan?

Ah, I see. Has the winner been declared yet? Were you rooting for one of them over the other?

[abracadavers]

[dreadfulsorryy]

Ugh.

[sealskinsuit]

Which bit? I have my thoughts about making doodads but I’ll let you go first.

[dreadfulsorryy]

The kissing. Do you lose your lunch on the regular then?

[sealskinsuit]

Does kissing make you vomit? I dinnae think that’s usual.

[dreadfulsorryy]

I find most men sickening, don't you? And to be subjected to it at your place of work...
