I'd like to invite any of the Quest Fellows (and the rest of Adventure Society) to join the Adventure Society Knowledge Department for trivia this Tuesday. It's an opportunity for us all to get to know eachother better outside of this building -- a different, probably less bloody kind of sparring, if any of you are game.


[KNOWLEDGE DEPARTMENT]

Good Morning everyone. You may have already seen the newest addition to our lounge - a suspicious gift from the Administration* to help facilitate "better comradery and culture, my dudes." I am hoping it makes our lounge a more welcoming place for you all. You're all brilliant with a lot to share with eachother...and frankly us nerds need to stick together. [...] I've already been made aware that the cushions are incredible deep and fluffy, and that one intern has already disappeared into it and had to be retrieved. Please be careful.

Some reminders and announcements:

• Departmental Meetings will be occurring once a month on Wednesdays. We'll try the next one in the conversation pit if no one is swallowed by it, but otherwise, they'll continue to be held in the employee lounge. Knowledge Department Heads will still be meeting weekly on Mondays.


• Ainslie Grey will be my new assistant. Please include her on any e-mails to me related to the Department.


• We're incredibly lucky to have Barbie join the Library staff as the newest Night Librarian - welcome Barbie! As the library spellwork begins to settle, we will be looking to hire more librarians.


• The Departmental field trip to the grand opening of Godzilla: King Of Monsters at the ROMM (Royal Ontario Museum of Magic) is later this month. If anyone has suggestions of somewhere to go for dinner and drinks after, just let Ainslie know.

(* pretend this is way bigger and 10x more comfortable and fluffier)

[SNOOP TROOP* open to anyone to become part of]

I've been speaking with Elliot, the Head Librarian for Quest Fellowship, and he was incredibly helpful with answering some of the questions we've had [ooc: pretend that Broderick is sharing this as a compiled list of information]

In particular he's shared these safety guidelines (ooc: we don't have guidelines so just assume reasonable typical workplace safety ones) for all authorized Questing Associations, guidelines he says Scantlebury was expelled for when the Society members went missing. As you can see, there's also considerable personal animosity. Has anyone learned anything else? I'm still trying to meet with Baudelaire - was anyone more successful with that?

Masher.

[cursorily]

Oh no, I wanted to be James Bond cool. But still called Mirage.

Masher.

[werewho]

Mirage: For Your Eyes Only would absolutely work.

Masher.

[cursorily]

Please never say anything to Darcy about any of this.

Masher.

[werewho]

Can you imagine? The plot practically writes itself. I promise, my lips are sealed!

Masher.

[cursorily]

Maybe she'll get bored with me after Night Light to Remember. Or, I'm sorry, everyone is based on her own imagination and not us, of course.

Masher.

[werewho]

Yes, of course. I'm sure the werewolf doctor will have no similarities to me at all.

Masher.

[cursorily]

[...] Any luck with your, what was it again, cur willingly-healed but life-threateningly injured counterpart?

Masher.

[werewho]

I haven't heard any new details. I don't think my plot line was as far along as some others were.

Masher.

[cursorily]

She did seem more open to collaboration with your ideas than mine, so that would make sense. Or she just likes you more.

Masher.

[werewho]

Or she was just trying to rile you up. Which I think is probably an option to consider.

Masher.

[cursorily]

No, not me. I'm unrileable.

Masher.

[werewho]

Yea, you didn't seem to have strong critiques of Beauty and the Beast at all. Which, admittedly, is a little too stockholm syndrome for my tastes too.

Masher.

[cursorily]

I just thought I'd be Beauty.

Masher.

[werewho]

I guess you'll just have to write a competing book where you're beauty.

Masher.

[cursorily]

Oh, I don't think that's what anyone wants.

Masher.

[werewho]

Why not?

Masher.

[cursorily]

I don't think my prose in this styling lives up to Darcy's.

Masher.

[werewho]

Does that an imply that you write prose in another style?

Masher.

[cursorily]

I'll start sounding like a film bro on a podcast if I say I'm a visual storyteller, but...

Masher.

[werewho]

But you are a visual storyteller.

Masher.

[cursorily]

Never really bothered with creative writing when I already had it, you know?

Masher.

[werewho]

Makes sense to me. Does that mean you knew pretty early on that you were really good at making illusions?

Masher.

[cursorily]

My coven was big into specialization. [...] It's not exciting.

Masher.

[werewho]

I think your illusions are really cool. […] why isn’t it exciting?
