first cookie

[albinoish]

Huh?

[Some rustling as Shiro picks up the book, turning it over and shaking it before tossing it away. Some more rustling as she bounces on the bed before getting to her feet and looking around.]

Wooo~w!! How Shiro get here...?

That would be the castle's doing, ma'am.

[albinoish]

Oh... Mr. Book is man again!

[14thkuzunoha]

That's not quite it. These books are how us residents talk to each other.

[albinoish]

...What? Shiro doesn't understand! [yeahhh not getting it at all]

[14thkuzunoha]

It's kind of like a telephone, really. But much more open.

[albinoish]

[making a face at the book] Mr. Book uses weird words.

How come voice is different than last Mr. Book?

[14thkuzunoha]

[A moment's silence]

That's because I'm not the same person. Different voices for different people. Usually.

[albinoish]

But Mr. Book looks the same...

[14thkuzunoha]

The book is just a tool. It's not actually a resident.

[albinoish]

...

[14thkuzunoha]

Unless you're saying you're Miss Book?

[albinoish]

Huh? [holds the book out at arm's length, looking at it chidingly] No, Shiro is Shiro!

[14thkuzunoha]

[He might be smirking just the littlest bit]

Well, Miss Shiro, I'm Raidou. Not Mr. Book.

[albinoish]

But book is talking! Shiro doesn't see any Ra... Radoo!

[14thkuzunoha]

Raidou.

That's because I am talking to you through the book. You're not where I am either.

Perhaps it would be easier to explain in person.

[albinoish]

So... Raidou isn't Mr. Book?
