A Question (Voice)

[He sounds worried and yet sort of amazed at the same time.]

Why is my book trying to eat me?

I'm pretty sure books don't do that...

[There's a sound as if something's being whacked.]

Back, I say! Back! Bad book!

((ooc: Deleted the other entry cause it was just too weird...))

Because it was.... hungry?

[Daniel is not usually sarcastic, but right now, his voice sounds awfully like it is.]

I'm sure it was.

Do books try to bite you back in your world?

Voice

[quippage]

Of course not.

But a bunch of action figures did try to kill me this morning.

Voice

[ineedaconstant]

Oh, really?

That's...interesting.

[There's the sound of something hitting the ground.]

No, that's my journal, bring that back!!

[There's a pause.]

Sorry about that. What's with all these...carnivorous things trying to kill their owners?

[sarcatstically]

I figure it's because you never did much reading as a kid.

Voice

*sputters*

What?! I read all the time when I was a kid. I even took care of them.. I didn't do the dog eared pages or anything!

Besides, why would a book hate me because I read it?

Voice

[sarcatstically]

Annoyance, boredom, rage for being manhandled. Or maybe it's a poor soul trying to show its love for the apparently avid reader.

...Or maybe it just dislikes you because it dislikes you. Hate, whatever. If it's not too busy trying to bite your nose off, maybe you could ask.

Voice

[ineedaconstant]

Well, it won't answer me. Believe me, I've tried.

But, books don't have brains, therefore, it is impossible for them to feel emotion or any feeling resembling ann emotion.

Now, if it was possessed by something else, then it would be how that poltergeist feels towards me, not the book. The book is merely it's puppet.

Why my nose-?
