Oh, not much of anything really... I guess we could go out and... huh. *pauses* Uh. Well. Got a feeling I'm gonna need to stick around Headquarters today, so maybe nothing too fancy... You the picnicking type? It's nice out in the garden today, we could run down to the kitchens and get something packed up, go take a stroll. Maybe rope somebody else into coming along while we're at it.
Ah, and-- me? *startled laugh* I'm an Exorcist, hon. Maria Rainier at your service. How about you?
Huh? You have plans? I don't want to keep you, or anything. But, hey, a picnic sounds... really nice. Actually. Yeah, sure! Where are you? I'll meet you there.
Exorcist? Why don't I... Right, right. Must've... Musta slipped my mind, heh. 'M an Exorcist too. Small word, right? Been one for more 'n a decade now. Call me Bookman.
Ah, not really, it's just kinda... huh. You ever get that feeling like you forgot something that was going on, but you can't even remember enough to be sure you actually forgot it? *laugh* It'll probably turn up tomorrow I forgot somebody's birthday or something, whoops.
I'm down in one of the common rooms right now, just been practicing my piano a little. Come on by and I'll play you a tune before we get going~?
.......and. Huh. You are? That's funny, I thought I........ Huh.
Today's just... one of those days, seems like. *slightly abashed laugh* And you're a Bookman on top of that? Where've I been? Well, anyway, nice to meet you!
Can't say I've had that feeling, no. I got a mind like a steel trap, heh. But, uh. I get what you mean. Kind of woke up on the wrong side of the bed myself. But that's all superstitious stuff.
You can play? I'd love to hear a tune! You just keep banging on the ivories, and I'll follow the sound.
Exactly. How'd we miss each other, eh? Must be a conspiracy, ha ha ha! It's a pleasure, Maria. I promise not to forget you again.
Sounds like a plan. Just follow the ragtime, then~ *have another laugh. Then after a pause, a piano tune can be heard starting up in the background*
And I can't fathom it myself! I hate to walk around with a bunch of Exorcists about and me not even acquainted... We'll just have to make up for lost time, huh?
...Huh, that's funny, though... don't think we've met. You new around here?

New? Ah... heh, no. Not new. You're... You from the science department, or something?
