Quest 231
[Accidental Video Post]
[The device opens on a shot of the interior of the Library, with Rosella sitting at a table reading a book in the foreground and a glimpse of tall shelves loaded with books in the background. Her blonde hair is pinned back off her face, as it usually is when she is at work, and there is a stack of books on either side of her on the table itself. On her left--the camera's right--the stack is quite tall, perhaps seven or eight neatly stacked books; on her right, the pile is only one or two books tall.
The one currently in her hands is old and bound in brown leather; the cover is so worn that the title is nearly illegible. But she appears to be thoroughly engrossed in her reading, and as yet hasn't even noticed that her camera has switched on.
She reaches to turn the page, and her finger slides along the edge--]
Ouch!
[--and instantly the scene seems to go into slow motion: the edge of the page slowly, agonizingly slides through the pad of her finger; her blue eyes widen faintly at the abrupt sting; her hand moves instinctively toward her mouth as a small droplet of blood squeezes out from the sudden wound--and the soundtrack kicks in.]
♪ MMMM, WHATCHA SAAAAAAAY?
MMM, THAT YOU ONLY MEANT WELL?
WELL, OF COURSE YOU-- ♫
[As she sucks on her cut finger, a look of exasperation crosses Rosella's face, and her eyes narrow slightly as she slides it from her lips and hisses in a severe whisper: ]
Oh, honestly. We're in the Library!
[And, as if properly abashed, the volume of the background music suddenly dials down to a more appropriate tone.]
♪ --DID,
MMMM, WHATCHA SAAAAAAAY?
MMM, THAT IT'S ALL FOR THE BEST? ♫
[Rolling her eyes, Rosella sticks her finger back into her mouth and returns to her book, and the soundtrack continues until the video slowly fades out to black.]
[OOC: Papercuts: they're serious business. And dramatic enough for today's curse, apparently! So naturally I couldn't resist. Action for anyone in the Library, Network for everyone else. Just remember to keep your voice down! :D]

Yeah... I can sort of relate, so that probably helps. It's sort of strange, though, not being the quiet one now.
no subject
Well, not the quietest one, anyway. You're still rather quiet, in your own way. But it's nice to see you smile and hear you laugh every so often, too.
no subject
Well, I don't think I'll ever be quite as extroverted as some other people I live with. I'm okay with that.
no subject
Not so long as you live with Neil, you won't! But Neil is extroverted enough for the three of you when he gets going, I should think.
no subject
Neil is extroverted enough for the entire apartment building when he gets going. It actually helped me a lot, though, always getting dragged into everything he did, so... hopefully, it'll help Mouse, too.
no subject
Oh, I should imagine so! And of course, now I'll remember to start making plates with enough treats for three when I send you baked goods, rather than only two. Someone has to see to it that the three of you are well and truly spoiled, after all.
no subject
I'm sure we'll all appreciate that. I lost track of how much cake we went through on my birthday.
no subject
no subject
I do believe there were brownies, yes. They were also given a good home. There was also this amazing coat with them that I sincerely doubt I deserve.

Besides, I'm sure it has very nice pockets.
no subject
And, I do think it may just have the nicest pockets of all time.
Of all time.

lj working and my free time never seem to meet up. XD
