Think there are bigger concerns than your books. [He sounds very...amused by everything.]

Obviously, but there is a small window of time in which to act.

Quick, I need a book on how not to die.

[She sounds incredulous and appreciative.

This lady is pretty badass.]

Ah, that would be in the back.

[She glances back toward the building, through the smoke and raining apocalypse flames.]

There is a shortage of time for explanations, but suffice to say that you are misconstruing my priorities.

Speaking of which, rather than berating me, you ought to be forming some of your own.

This, of course, is assuming you are both mortal and flammable.

Which is why I have stayed to evacuate those who are too panicked to run from a flammable building.

As much as I'd hate to lose the library again, Miss Tarabotti, I think there's a higher priority here. You need to get somewhere safe.

[All the restrained panic, right there in that little waver in his voice.]

I am not foolish enough to put the library before lives, including my own.

However, it would be nice to ensure something of quality is left standing when this ends.

We can only hope it will be. Or that this place will be here at all.

Do you have a place to go? Do you need help?

It will only end if it ends. For now, survival. With any quality we can manage.

I will be fine, dear.

[Chances are she won't, but no way is she going to worry him. Negi needs all his wits right now.]

Any books of particular value or rarity could be buried temporarily and would be potentially safe from the fire, should you have means to do so safely.

I have thrown several into the vault, though I did not have enough time to hunt down all important volumes. Immediate survival is of more import.

Yes.

Do you have somewhere safe to go to?

[Video] homo_exanimus January 7 2012, 06:36:56 UTC
Not at present. However, if some way of traveling were made safe, I may find the source of this mess and deign to deal with it myself.

Are there current plans to find those responsible?
