seven - playing the hero for ten minutes.

((ooc: There's a nice blackboard to go with this: here. Bernard has gone and put two and two together - remarkably making four, having seen what's happened to Kirk et al, and Ethan's post... p.s. I also know Shego and Bernard haven't got this far. I wanted to do it before I left for the library.))Okay, okay. Vaguely literary folk of the Barge (yes ( Read more... )

booze - in need of, bernard occasionally does his job, bernard's shining moment of the century, living in fiction

What the hell are you talking about?

People. Are. Trapped. In. Books.

Ruining the plotlines and such. I've found ONE. Judging by Ethan moaning about there being books strewn around all over the place, I bet there's several like it.

No idea how to get them out. But you can talk to them, sort of, by writing in the book. Try and keep the story on track, that kind of thing.

FOLLOW?

...who cares?

It's probably another one of those stupid floods.

I DO.

They're ruining good books! I appealed for literary folks, not people who don't give a damn.

and I suppose, I dunno, they might die in there or something.

Are you fucking kidding me with this? First body switching and now people are getting stuck in books? God damn it.

Tell me Katie's with the Enterprise folks.

Do you have any ideas what the other books could be? Or where they are?

Also, I don't have wine, but I have vodka.

I am not! Why does nobody think I'm serious? Ask Shego!

sorry. just the new girl, Mr Underage-Molotov-Cocktail, Space Captain Loser and Bedside Manner Is Not My Forte. OH. And the Vulcan.

No, sorry. You'll be able to spot them, the pictures on the front have actual people on.

You get a LOT of points if I can have some. Something happened to my wine stock. It's been significantly diminished.

On this fucking thing, I believe pretty much anything now.

Damn it

All right, I'll bring you vodka and gather a pen, I guess.

They do just keep bloody coming, don't they?

Great. If you find a book with people stuck in it, there should be another copy in my room. Presuming these are the library's copies, that is.

Seen any ridiculously tall men with floppy hair in that book?

[Private] alcoholit October 10 2009, 19:02:01 UTC
Not so far. I can go and have a look in the rest of the book. Why do you think he'd be in there?

I sent him a message yesterday and he never responded. Sam Winchester, do you know of him?

Oh yes! Sandwich monkey! I'll go and have a look for him. See if you can spot him on the cover of some books. I'm guessing they're ones which are lying around. As doing this with a whole library is either a lot of effort or taking massive chances.

He's not going to be the voice of caution. Just the voice of "You idiots." emptyyourself October 10 2009, 19:18:38 UTC
People are getting sucked into books now, are they?

These must be the most incompetent people I have met in my entire life.

...bernard approves. But wants his books to be okay... alcoholit October 10 2009, 19:41:05 UTC
Yeah, they are. I don't know how they manage it, but some how, this kind of thing skips right over people like us... I wonder.

Damn it, EDIT. emptyyourself October 10 2009, 19:44:57 UTC
I'd make a very cutting remark about this kind of thing seeking out the brainless, but that's exactly the sort of thing one would say before getting trapped in a book.

True. Although I'm sat here reading and conversing with this thing and nothing's happening to me. I wonder what the hell they did.

EVIL PLANS AHOY. thnxforsmoking October 10 2009, 20:10:05 UTC
So it's just Alice in Wonderland that's got people in it?

*laugh* alcoholit October 10 2009, 20:13:21 UTC
I don't know! Put it this way, lots of people aren't around and not all of them are in here. And wasn't Ethan moaning about books being left around the place?

I've only come across Alice in Wonderland, though.

thnxforsmoking October 10 2009, 20:14:49 UTC
Can I see that copy of Alice in Wonderland? You know, just so I know what I'm looking for.

alcoholit October 10 2009, 20:19:44 UTC
It's not too difficult. People you know. In stupid pictures on the front of a book.

But if you want, I'm in the pub. You'll have to come to me.
