So there was that day one scouting expedition! And most of us are still tagging in it, but as it's not day one anymore, we might just want to know what was discovered! In an effort to address that, have a post!
(11:48:16 PM) d peach maria: uh it's a square building so this might be a bad example since this is round but i imagined the architecture and interior styling to be similar to the (11:48:21 PM) d peach maria: study room at the library of congress (11:48:32 PM) d peach maria: http://www.nikonians.org/html/resources/reference_library/pix/library_of_congress_reading.jpg (11:48:50 PM) d peach maria: it's very extravagant and has that kind of antique-ish architectural feel to it (11:49:12 PM) d peach maria: there are two floors, with two large staircases on either side of the main entrance (11:49:29 PM) d peach maria: in the middle of the main room there's a HUGE globe, but it changes it's geography every day (11:49:42 PM) d peach maria: so no one can be like Oh this is my planet! which means this place is totally in my world! (11:49:52 PM) d peach maria: cause they go there next day and are like oh...it changed... (11:50:10 PM) d peach maria: it's not just a one room library, either, there are different large rooms as well (11:50:19 PM) d peach maria: but only two floors. it's a rather large building
(11:53:49 PM) d peach maria: but i think i might do the history thing. so a lot of the books are books that would be taken from libraries in everyone else's world (11:54:03 PM) d peach maria: there probably are a few random locked rooms (11:54:10 PM) d peach maria: some will most likely be study rooms (11:54:16 PM) d peach maria: locals are in there (11:54:23 PM) d peach maria: the basement is off limits, they won't be able to get down there (11:54:44 PM) d peach maria: and imagine how big a library it is, and how it looks like someone has been (11:54:53 PM) d peach maria: going through and looking through books, but often forgetting to re-shelve them (11:54:59 PM) d peach maria: but then think about that and (11:55:02 PM) d peach maria: half the books in the library (11:55:04 PM) d peach maria: are missing. (11:55:09 PM) d peach maria: like how big it is and just (11:55:14 PM) d peach maria: that many books feel like they're missing. (11:55:20 PM) d peach maria: not half but a good chunk are. (11:55:32 PM) d peach maria: those are all the nitty gritty books about Splendor, plus a few others.
(11:56:15 PM) d peach maria: the basic books about Splendor are there, kind of like informative books. but when it comes to history, information on the locals, anything like that (11:56:19 PM) d peach maria: they're gone

(11:58:57 PM) shadhahvar: are we going to avoid classic lit just in case someone apps from it, or do retroactive NO ONE REMEMBERS THAT NOVEL NOW or like "it's like that novel except tweaked" (11:59:11 PM) shadhahvar: such as "romelo and jules" or something equally ridic. (11:59:54 PM) d peach maria: hmmm (10/12/2010 12:00:06 AM) d peach maria: i think we'll play that by ear. i'm not gonna say yes or no in case it actually comes up in a thread (12:00:11 AM) shadhahvar: /nod! (12:00:16 AM) d peach maria: like oh my character and this person are looking for shakespeare books (12:00:17 AM) d peach maria: are they there... (12:00:19 AM) d peach maria: so yeah

Actually this is probably a good idea, since he really doesn't have enough money to buy himself enough weekly groceries and seeds are much cheaper than fully grown vegetables, but it may actually take him some time to think of it. But no, your received answers are amazing. :|b KEEP THE COMM POSTED, IT IS YOUR DUTY.
It's more likely than you think. 8|b Besides, Allen, make use of the giant estate you live on, I'm sure between everyone else there, and with the other Sakura's luck, your garden will flourish!

it's okay if characters are around long enough we could start up a legitimate IC bookclub to discuss how bizarre literature is across cultures
or not it's just my secret mission to have bookclubs as an excuse to discuss everything possible under the sun
