Librarian's Office, Saturday During The Day

Oct 02, 2010 09:13

It was a gloriously happy and relaxed Henry who tore himself away from Clare long enough to come down to the office for a few hours. He wasn't going to be far from her for very much time, but he did have a vague, nagging sense that he should be available in case anyone wanted an in-depth tour of the library, or wanted to meet him for another reason ( Read more... )

Ew. Unevolved humans just infested this entire island, didn't they?

"You employ my brother then?" Maximus asked, looking around as he tried not to make a face at the smells.

"I might," Henry said, leaning back and wondering what to make of the expression on the kid's face. "Who's your brother?"

Humans smelled, damnit! And they were messy, horrible little creatures who he might have started planning to destroy as soon as he ruled over Attilan.

"Blackagar. What exactly does this job entail?"

"Taking care of the library," Henry answered patiently. "Reshelving things, culling books that need to be repaired, helping people find books once in a while. It's usually pretty quiet, though."

When things weren't completely insane.

"Librarian, right."

That... didn't sound quite like a question, but six-foot-and-armored did not seem to care about that much.

Henry had to swallow to stop the hello, nurse expression he was sure crossed his face. Six-foot-and-armored was an impressive look on a woman.

"Henry DeTamble," he said, rising from his chair. "Anything I can help you with?"

"Xena," she offered. At least this guy seemed like less of a jackass than the other guy, which meant the expression on her face was rather more pleasant, in a stoic kind of way. "I'm Gabrielle's guardian." Friend. UST-partner. Something-or-other. Anyway. "I heard she's been working here."

"Xena," Henry repeated. "It's an honor to meet you. She mentions you a lot."

Usually in the context of completely historical improbable events.

"She practically runs the place lately -- she's been here the longest of the current aides."
