[Piccolo was on his way back in to his room. While Rhyme was at his door bright and early, Piccolo had been up muuuch earlier meditating in the most secluded place in the ship he could find. He sees her there with a bag slung over her shoulder, but more than anything she was in his way.

He cleared his throat, letting her know he was behind her.]

[That makes her jump a bit. She turns and looks up, smiling]

Oh! Hello Piccolo!

[His brows narrow]

Rhyme. [A pause.] What are you doing?

Well, I'm supposed to deliver the Lightning Post, but no one in this room is answering... I don't really blame them. It is a little early.

I can't really say I know the habits of my roommates... [He goes straight to his room and doesn't interact with any of them. Yeah, he's friendly.] ...but you're probably right.

...Did you need me to take it?

[Oh. That's probably why he walked up.]

If you don't mind.

[He nods at her, extending his hand. A paper. Or more accurately, a stack of paper that has been folded with a bunch of text written on it.]

...What does it say?

[He's not exactly familiar with the media]

The Lightning Post covers what will be happening throughout the day and news reports from yesterday that were important like... if someone important has died.

[He blinks]

That's a little grim, but I guess it's better to know than to not know.

[He can't expect everyone to be able to sense a presence leave the ship like he could. He opens the paper, glancing at it, scanning over some of the article titles]

...I can see the merit in this. Clever.

[Inwardly, he wondered who actually took the time to READ this. He was quickly being reminded about how unmotivated and lazy people were. He had forgotten with the distraction of fighting.]

Sorry.

[One of the few things that still bothers her.]

It's interesting to read it and see what's happened lately on the Thor, but finding the time can be difficult.

I'd imagine we all got nothing but time now. In the middle of space, with all the wormholes, it doesn't seem to matter as much.

[Piccolo was adjusting well enough, as you can see. He folds the paper back up, deciding he would have to read this once their conversation was done.]

So what do you do if someone doesn't answer the door?

True, but going to the library does eat up a person's time.

[She looks a little down]

I'm supposed to leave the paper, but they get stolen. There were a few people doing it over the month.

They get stolen? [He doesn't understand that at all.] Why?

lookingforabeat July 23 2011, 18:09:27 UTC
I'm not sure. It could for a prank. They always change their target.

Hm. That just sounds annoying. [Yet at a young age, he could see Goten and Trunks doing the same thing]

I guess the saying still applies. Boys will be boys.
