<p>The busiest section of the library was far and away the wing that had been built to house the massive information dump from Artemis. This took the form of a squat, pentagonal building — one wall for each race and one for their shared knowledge — that bored its way deep into the ground, a slow-sloping spiral winding down along the shelves to allow visitors to browse their way back in time until, at the very bottom, only firstrace had any material.</p>
|
||||
<p>Ey stayed away from this for the day. Ey wanted cozy, not awe-inspiring.</p>
|
||||
<p>Eventually, having loaded up on a few random finds — trashy sci-fi, some intriguing contemporary fiction from decades after ey’d uploaded, even a bit of furry fiction from early in the 21st century ey considered bringing home to show May — ey parked emself in the glass garden and arrayed eir finds out before em on the table.</p>
|
||||
<p>The sci-fi proved to be a little <em>too</em> trashy for eir tastes, and while the contemporary fiction was certainly intriguing, it was far too dense for reading when ey was trying to have a lighter, easier day. The furry book struck a nice middle-ground, at least, even if ey couldn’t keep the species straight in eir head.</p>
|
||||
<p>Eventually, though, ey gave up and just sat in the sun, watching the way it filtered through the glass leaves and branches of the trees.</p>
|
||||
<p><em>No better way to realize just how tense you are than by relaxing,</em> ey thought. </p>
|
||||
<p>Ey didn’t doubt that the two skunks also would appreciate some time out of the house, too. Doubtless there were some sims they could visit that would be reasonably safe. Douglas’s field, End Waking’s forest…well, no longer Arrowhead Lake.</p>

<p>“Hi Serene,” ey began, starting up the simplex sensorium message before ey lost both the nerve and the train of thought. “I know it’s been a while since we’ve spoken, so I hope you’re well. I have a strange question that might turn into a really big request. After some…very dramatic events, one of our favorite places is no longer safe for us. I guess that’s what happens when you just kind of adopt an abandoned sim without knowing much about it.</p>
|
||||
<p>“Still, it’s become personally meaningful to us over the years, and we’re finding ourselves missing it. I don’t know if we necessarily need a copy of it, but would it be possible for you to come take a look at it and see about what all would go into creating something similar? Would be a modification of my home sim. There’s no rush, and if nothing else, it’d be good to say hi sometime. Talk soon.”</p>
