Thread: Peace Offering (Location Library; attn: JT)

Reply by J Catron on July 16, 2009 at 10:05pm Delete JT looks up from his astrological charts and looks to the young student. He quirks his head slightly and nods.

"Thank you, Clarice. I'll be along to fetch it shortly...."

JT folds up the maps of Lamar, the Astrological charts, and closes the Library's copy of The Key Of Solomon, gathers everything into his book bag, and heads for the front counter.

"Timothy, do you have something for me?"

speculating what it might be, but the Professor told us not to fiddle with it."

He offers the box to JT.

Reply by J Catron on July 16, 2009 at 10:34pm Delete James takes the box with a furrow of his brow. He looks the box over slowly, carefully. "Which professor told you to take this to me?"

JT asks as he looks for labels, looks over the packaging, and tries to assess any danger it might pose.

Reply by Charlie on July 16, 2009 at 10:48pm Send Message Delete The package is wrapped in plain brown butcher paper with twine wrapped around each end and tide in the center by a twine bow.

Reply by J Catron on July 16, 2009 at 10:55pm Delete "A lady?" JT fiddles with the box for a bit, then nods to the student behind the counter.

"Thank you, Timothy. Have a pleasant evening."

Reply by Charlie on July 16, 2009 at 11:02pm Send Message Delete "Hey don't mention it." After JT moves a few steps, he adds. "If you wouldn't mind... I have the next round of drinks riding on what might be in that box." The young man grins, "If it is anything other than a book than really don't mention it."
