23rd Flight: [Action]

[skyborne_mage]

[Sitting on the roof of the library is one pink haired witch, flipping her way through a stack of pilfered books.

... Well, she'd say "borrowed", but seeing as how she didn't ask anyone's permission to check them out, it's pretty much the same thing.

She doesn't seem to be putting much importance into hiding her blatant disregard for library protocol, given how she's dangling her legs right in front of the door in. This could possibly be a distraction though, from the smaller stack of books set rather precariously on top of the partly-open door. Caution opening the door would probably be advised.]

[Why is it that people keep coming by who make the joke a lot less funny? Arche waves down at her with a little smile, glancing at the door.]

Hi Martel! Yeah, I've been... kinda out of the loop recently. Oh, hold on the door a moment, I gotta grab my books.

[She sets the one she's reading aside, carefully, and slips down onto her broom.]

I've been seeing how many I could balance on the door at once. [Yeah, that's not suspicious at all.]

[ Yep! Certainly not suspicious in Martel's mind. ]

Ah, I see. That's an interesting experiment there.

[ A concerned look spreaded across her face. ]

Out of the loop? What's the matter?

[ There she goes. Being all motherly again. ]

[Nervous laugh.]

Well, I had to do something with the ones I was finished with.

[She shrugs in response to that question as she gathers up her books.]

I'm not sure anything's wrong, exactly. It's been a pretty quiet month for me, which I guess is kinda weird, but then again I'm not sure I want to draw attention to myself right now.

[ She's not sure what she meant by not wanting to draw attention to herself but . . . ]

Is it because you miss someone?

[ And would that someone be her boyfriend? ]

[She can't help but blink in surprise at Martel's shrewd guess.]

A... lot of someones, actually.

[seraphgoddess.livejournal.com]

Oh, so it's your friends from your world you miss?

[ If she had known better, she would have thought that Arche was going to say "a boy." ]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

Mostly. A couple people I met here too when it comes to that.

[Are you trying to play matchmaker, Martel?]

[action]

[seraphgoddess.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. You're bound to meet them again. And if that takes too long then you could always come to me when you're lonely.

[ When she mentions Chester's name, then yes; Martel will start playing matchmaker. ]
