Faisal woke to the barrage of sound that his large family made vibrating in his bones. It felt like all the Sands had sought refuge inside his body, leaving a prevailing scratching irritability. His throat alone could swallow all the water in the world and still be as sere. This flu that had been infecting all the younger djinn at the Archives had firmly grabbed hold of him after his fighting it off for months. Luckily when he’d transported himself home he’d ended up plastered against the family’s exterior wall instead of half way embedded into it. Three days later under tender parental care, Faisal was capable enough to remember to log onto his archive account.
After the first couple of postings from the brat that had thought he owned the Master Librarian enough to demand his attention, Faisal had for the most part transferred them into the recycle folder without reading. Occasionally he’d scan them but that was rarely. It wasn’t as if the Master had asked if there were any messages from the brat and his words had been very succinct that first time he’d tried to bring the Master’s attention to a message from the brat. Faisal hoped that his illness had not inconvenienced his Master with any slippings through the wall of protection he’d tried to maintain around the Librarian. He supposed that he should do his duty and even though he was not yet fully recovered, he thought he might as well do a quick scan for the brat’s diary. When he found the latest entry, this time he made the effort to read it more fully and felt his skin stretch in horror. “NO. Please NO.” Back tracking the diary confirmed his worst assumptions. A fast saving of all the diary postings and the two personal messages into attachments had them placed into a message to the Master flagged ‘important’ and ‘immediate action required’. He really hoped that the Master could make things right with the brat.. With a sigh, he realized that he would probably have to think of a different name to use in his mind for the other djinn. Poor kid.
Pregnancy alone was a terrible thing to happen to someone, especially if one was young. The poor kid must be someone special if a djinnling chose him to be his container.
