[ Yes, yes, lots of snow, impending food crisis, yep. Is that going to stop Hong Kong on his most important mission to the library? Nope. He is determined.

Pity it all comes to nothing though. Which is why at around midday he decides to make a very awkward phone call. ]

Does anyone have any... Like, romance novels... Or something... That I could, y'

No real reason, huh?

[Not believing one word. 8|]

[ Answers in the most deadpan voice ever of course: ] Yeah, no real reason at all.

I guess he's just that much of a sap, y'know?

[bittybrows]

Isn't there a library somewhere around here, anyway?

[scentofbauhinia]

Yeah there is.

But like, the book selection is totally limited. They're just what the drones think each gender should be reading, like all the ones for girls are just about cooking and sewing and stuff.

[bittybrows]

Don't gender roles usually paint girls as reading romance novels, too?

[scentofbauhinia]

That's true.

But maybe they don't want them to have those kind of fanciful ideas and stuff.

I'm really starting to hate this place.
