See, I can figure out technology.

To whom it may concern,

A friend and I have been having some talks about starting a book club on the ship. We thought it'd be a nice break from the whole 'oh God we're in the middle of a war Stacy's trying to kill us we're all going to die' daily grind. Besides, it would be an excellent way to learn about each other culturally, through the literary artifacts of each member's homeworld.

Also, some of us would like a way to bond that doesn't involve getting our faces punched in in the Sensoriums.

Is there any interest in this?

Sincerely,
Eva

MOTOT:

ONE joke. ONE joke and I will burn your book club so far down to the ground that people one level below it will have to extinguish their hair.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Will you be burning us at farenheit 451?

[ronnae.livejournal.com]

Sounds interesting. Keep up the update if it takes float.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Noted, will do. I think it will be fun.

Probably read them all well, from Earth but yes, I'm interested. From all the parallel worlds and other dimensions?

As long as everyone in the book club is capable of reading it. It'll be educational.

Glad to have interest.

[makeherblue]

You had me at educational. Actually you had me earlier than educational, but I like educational.

Where are you having this club? Club-type thing?

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

No idea yet. I'm just sending out a test balloon for interest. I was thinking maybe in one of the Sensoriums, though, and we can adjust it to feel very homey and coffee-shoppish. Maybe with actual coffee, or whatever the hologram equivalent of actual is.

[nottheglamour.livejournal.com]

Sounds fun. We kind of had something like that back home, but I never quite attended them...

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Me neither, so it'll be a learning experience for both of us. I'll mark you down as interested.

[nottheglamour.livejournal.com]

Well I was also pretty busy with paying the bills and keeping everything in top running condition [as best as she could.] If you need any help, I'd be happy to give some assistance.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

I completely understand. I was busy raising a kid, so the idea of going out to read more books after my four hundredth round of The Very Hungry Caterpillar was less than tempting.

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.

I can never say no to books!

But uh. Getting our faces punched?

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

It seems most of the group activities in the Sensoriums involve things that go bang and things that go pow. Often both at once.

I'll mark you down for interest.

[carrieswar.livejournal.com]

Well hey, if we're interested learning about other worlds, we could always plan for meetups that don't involve that sort of thing.

[Congrats, Eva, you've found one of the few ways to get Goliath's attention amidst his clanlessness-induced funk.]

My castle contains an extensive library. So long as everyone involved agrees to respect my territory and visit only when I am awake, you may make use of it.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

I'm very grateful for the offer. If you don't mind, could I take a look at the location to see if it will be suitable? I could meet you at just about any time you prefer.

[not_the_philistine]

After nightfall in the City.

Mine is the Castle Wyvern. I will meet you at the city's entrance to guide you there.

Shall we set up a log?

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Delightful. And naturally you're invited to participate in the book club if it happens.

Sure. You want to start or shall I?

[not_the_philistine]

I would like that.

You probably should since I have no idea about the location's specifics.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you would. You sound like the booky type.

[not_the_philistine]

Bam.

[curiousredsoul]

A book club? That could be quite enjoyable, I would be interested.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Excellent, I'll mark you down as interested.

By the way, do you come in a pocket-size version? It's just something I need to take into account while looking for a good location for this.

[curiousredsoul]

I look forward to it.

Pocket-sized? Unfortunately not, though I should be able to fit in most locations without a great deal of trouble.

[vissernone.livejournal.com]

Doors aren't a problem for you?

[curiousredsoul]

For the most part they prove little problem.
