[Thursday has rarely been seen out of her apartment these part few weeks, it's true. From within her locked room in Community Building 1 she has been pouring over a copy of a book that she had hunted down from within the depths of the library. Finally putting her hands upon its dusty spine had seemed like a gift, a victory, yet it was because of this book that she now imprisoned herself within Room 4, emerging only to fetch supplies and to conduct her twice-daily jogs around the village.

Ordinarily she would be easy to flag down during these excursions, but recently she has taken to following a route designed specifically to avoid the residential areas of the village. Anyone who she happened to have sped by might have heard snatches of chanted phrases mentioning cabbages and turnips, or the names 'Peter' or 'Benjamin', but it is unlikely that many of Luceti's residents would have had the opportunity to experience this phenomenon - to make doubly certain of avoiding chance encounters she has been scheduling her jogs as early in the day and as late at night as she could bear.

Nevertheless she addresses Luceti cheerfully this morning. A little too cheerfully, perhaps. Disguising her emotions isn't a skill that comes easily to her.]

Good morning Luceti. Does anyone here have a skill that they would be willing to teach?
