⠀ I got taught something valuable, then ... /had it taken away from me. There. That's my story. That's what I am. Or what I should be, I .. don't ... ⠀

⠀ I can't remember. Something about my enemies not remembering my face. My husband—ahm, Effie—and I were after something called ... the 'Blood-red Night'. Kept calling me ma'am throughout that all, too ... haha. Anyway, during that fight, he ... took a hit for me. ⠀

⠀ A hit that was /meant for me./ ﹙It's absent minded. Like she's reciting a book. Or, remembering a poem. Honoring it, someway.﹚ He broke into my world, for that limited time. Showed me the way to turn away from the City's agonies, especially without my mask. ⠀

⠀ ... ﹙That there's a deep silence. It's almost tragic how mournful she looks—a haunted face.﹚ Granma told me to use a mask when I went out for gigs. She was the one to teach me how to survive. I hated taking it off. The original reason I wore it ... ⠀

⠀ History? Ooh, of the City? Any questions you have about that, I can help! You should look for that one! ✨ ﹙<< Completely oblivious, hand her an award!﹚ Sure. IIIII think I have DND, Monopoly, haah ... uuh, the word one ... I think I forgot its name— ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< I suppose I can manage to get one of these from a book . . . One of our guests had history with one. > ᅠᅠᅠᅠ( Ahem. They look away slightly. ) ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< If you wish to try it with me and teach me the rules, I'd appreciate it. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ Not that you're wrong. Effie was a wonderful man to be around. I liked doing those things, even without him, really! Um, um, let's see—what about board games? Those are really fun! ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< Your husband . . . don't you think these activities are only enjoyable because he was present? If I were to do them alone, I doubt I'd get much from these. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ Uhhh ... I mean, I liked being at home ... staying with my husband. It was fun to bond with him, we'd cook together—sometimes he'd even burn something——pfft. I liked resting after a long day. Sometimes I'd read. Think this rest was my kind of fun. ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< Not much, I was trying to brainstorm, but I didn't get anything. So tell me, what does one do on their own to satisfy this feeling? > ᅠᅠ

⠀ You wanna tell me what you thought of? Okay, alrighty. Thought I should ask. ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< I didn't think it would be this difficult. I thought of something for myself. For now, I'd rather not bother our assistants with such a thing. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ Depends. You want something to bond over, maybe quality time? Something for yourself, for the librarians? My idea of fun is different from yours, Director. You gotta specify in what way that fun is gonna be done. ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< What is your own idea of fun? Maybe I can get some inspiration from you. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ I don't know what you see, either. I was just trying to offer some ideas ... Oooh, like enlightening! How fun, I can't wait! ✨ ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< I don't exactly choose what people will bring with their books, Saude. But . . . Hm, maybe I can bring a thing or two out of it. > ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< I will do some revision, and see what I can get for "entertainment". > ᅠᅠ

⠀ You could try bringing books /with/ entertainment. They don't have to contain all of the .. things that they contain. Books *are* knowledge, after all. ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< Maybe so. How disgraceful. And what do I even do? Just sit around reading even more? I don't want to start bringing out things from the books just for entertainment. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ Like a tinglin' sensation? A certain, undescribable numbness? Ooor, they could be heavier, period. They /do/ seem a lot more thicker these days ... maybe it is just me. You might be tired! ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< Haah, I don't know. Again, I feel neutrality, but it's different from not caring about hurting you if necessary. > ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< The books feel somewhat heavier than usual today. Maybe . . . some form of tiredness. Great, exactly what I wanted . . . > ᅠᅠ

⠀ ? Eh? Guilt? Where from? Is that a friend of yours? ✨️ Ooooh? Like what? Can you put it into words, Director? ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< . . . I'll ignore whatever this sudden guilt from you was. > ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< It might be my emotions. Maybe the Library is working, I'm feeling something different for once. > ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< Perhaps, I'm one step closer to humanity. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ Ooo—kay. I understood all of that. I did. ... yes, Director. I'm sorry, Director. I'll stop. 💧 ⠀
ᅠᅠ ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< Yes. My mood seems to be neutral, but different from the usual neutrality. > ᅠᅠᅠᅠ< For example, I don't really feel like ripping your arms off. > ᅠᅠ

⠀ You're ... not sure whether today's bad or good? ⁉️ ⠀
