[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.

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

[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.

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

[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?

[hippocarnival]

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

[pullingamiko]

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

[She's just saying ok]

[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.]

[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.]

[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.
