[Public Channel] Radio Mingle, Day 48+ after closing time

[worldlyafflictions]

'evening, Carnival!

Since we'll want ta help each other out while we're out here in the stacks, 'n since not all of us have been here years or however long you vets have been hanging in there, why don't ya introduce yourselves before ya read off anything interesting ya've found? Seems like a good time ta get ta know each other, right~?

I'll start!

Shima Renzou, reporting! And rright nnoowww.. [A pause and there's a shuffling of loose papers, possibly being rolled on or swum through.] I've found the biggest mountain of old newspaper clippings I've ever seen. Do Fae have newspapers? Ah, some of it might be poems--let's see...

"A few young sages one bright day..."

'Sages' is promising, right?

"Disputed, doth an old tale say,
Which is the prettiest part of women:"

Oooh...

"Some said the cheeks, and some the eyes,
And so they sought the beauteous Lais,
And asked her to award the prize.
The lady said, perhaps displeased,
These thoughts I cannot understand.

"If you could have them where you pleased,
I wonder where you'd put your hand?
'Twould be, you would see,
On their..."

...Oops, ehehe! I can't say that out loud ♥


((ooc: Mingle! This post is for sharing readings with everyone--dumb stuff, little plot stuff, 'anonymous' CR-related stuff to accidentally embarrass people in the carnival if you've found something on them, whatever your character might put on the air. Thread jumping encouraged! Shima will respond to anyone to who addresses him directly, feel free to show up just to roll your eyes at him.))

Found the dirty stuff already, did you? Guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

[worldlyafflictions]

That's totally the magic library's fault, okay. It's like everything I touch turns inta porn!

[sunflowerfields]

[yike]

Er... it might be a good idea to at least skim things before reading them to everyone, just in case it's inappropriate?

[worldlyafflictions]

Don't worry, don't worry~ I stopped before it got too racy!

[Kind of. Possibly not soon enough, considering the conversation going on.]

[kingsroads]

I've found at least four different books about dogs playing sports.

[ Air Bud transcends all universes. ]

Anyway, the prettiest part of a woman is her eyes, I don't know why that would be up for debate.

[starseedling]

... Do...

Do you still have the books about the sports dogs?

[Asking for a friend.]

[dorkypantsuit]

Dominance glands. Hands down.

Or up.

[worldlyafflictions]

They lady's argument seems ta be that ya wouldn't actually put your hands on a woman's eyes, so what's the point of finding 'em pretty?

Aah, asking a guy ta choose is hard though.

[soft_focus]

[She's Here-] ....Why can't you say it out loud?

[hippocarnival]

[Can he cover ears through the radio.]

It's--[How does he phrase this in a way she isn't going to ask??] Something only adults are supposed to look at. Don't worry about it!

[Don't ask why don't ask why don't ask why--]

[royalpurple]

Thank you for your concern, but I'll take it from here.

[This is directed at everyone but Reira.

The infamous and chilling Akaba Tone (TM).]

[dorkypantsuit]

...But wouldn't it have to rhyme with see?

What's the rhyming scheme for this slam. Is it traditional to humans or fae?

[spaghettimonster]

Oh, I thought it would rhyme with 'hand'... Whatever it is, it's not monster poetry!

[soft_focus]

.......................p....ee...?

[She is Concerned, that's Gross.]

[worldlyafflictions]

Haha, I'm not a poetry expert or anything, but it looks like they're just rhyming the 'T' at the end of the word they spelled out.

[hippocarnival]

Is that really what you wanted to share...? [He sounds a little doubtful.]

[worldlyafflictions]

It's not like I'm not looking. But isn't it boring if we only share the dry stuff?

[pullingamiko]

You sure ya didn't just want to tell everyone you found porn?

[She's just saying ok]

[mylastchance]

It's more like a dirty joke than porn.

[And it's not even that funny.]

[worldlyafflictions]

I thought this one was safe! I mean the actual porn I saw was like... "Taken by the T-rex" so...

[dontpokethat]

[Okay, well, in less gross news:]

Uh... I'm Ginko. It looks like there are actually a lot of research texts - I'm still looking for anything we could really make use of, but these are pretty interesting all the same. I've even found a couple from my and Tanyuu's world, which could be good if anyone wants to learn more about mushi.

[If he keeps looking, he might even find some that one of them wrote. He just hopes none of his really early notes are here.]

[scientificist]

I did intend to do that, actually--now that you've reminded me. You said an infestation might reoccur here?

[prazerbutterfly]

I might be interested later. [Once these books stop being a pain in the ass.]

[prazerbutterfly]

Let me know if you find anything more interesting than that, kid.

[Because he's interested but it being written like that seems to make it a little more dull than he would like.]

[worldlyafflictions]

Interesting in what direction though, 'cause I've come across way more Dinosaur Erotica than I expected to, but if it floats your boat...

[He's not judging!]

[atouts]

Surely all the newspaper clippings you found aren't poetry about a lady's parts...

[ But then again, maybe they are. This place is huge and somewhat difficult. ]

I can't say I've found anything of much use yet, though, for my own part. So far the library seems to think I either need books on how to get bloodstains out of my laundry or that I need to escort princesses back to their own shelf.

[whattaprick]

A real knight in shining armor, eh?
