Finally out...

[srsbiznez.livejournal.com]

After finally being done with that weird maze…thingy, he was able to do a bit of wandering. Waking up covered in goo and naked was one of the least appealing thing that has ever happened to him. At least the gloop he had to eat was more filling than cardboard and boiled cabbage.  Then again, fried fish beat out gloop.

Now it was time to explore. Maybe there would be some familiar faces around. If not, he could ask someone where the library was located.

"I'm not working at Mcdonalds anymore, so there is no reason to wear the hat here." Albert replied, though he did want an excuse to wear the hat again. Walking around with no purpose made him feel useless. Which reminded him of his purpose. "I was just on my way to the library, I was told it was on the fifth floor." Albert hoped he wouldn't get lost on his way up.

Needle gun, huh. Albert wondered what Howard did to irritate the people who shot him. Albert gave Howard a look that indicated he didn't entirely believe that Howard was blameless. However, if there were violent people on board, he did not want the pleasure of meeting them. He had better things to do with his time than get into fights and possibly die.

Howard rolls his eyes. "You're seriously going to go to the library? No one's going to take us seriously around here, Pennywise, no matter how many textbooks you crack. If you haven't noticed yet, you're fifteen and suddenly, we're not the big guys on campus anymore."

Howard returns Albert's skeptical look with a shrug that suggests that no, he has no idea what he did to get shot at, why would Albert suspect it was anything other than a random act of violence?

Albert had noticed. Unfortunately he was no longer among the oldest in the community, not on the council, no longer worked at Mcdonalds...This made it all the more important for him to read. Hopefully someone will take him seriously and give him some respect. "It doesn't hurt to open a book and read." He looked pointedly back at Howard,"No more dangerous than running into a bunch of violent people."

"No, but it wastes time. Stacy's covering all the resources here. You need to be networking with people, not hiding in the library. Or helping me salvage stuff from the unexplored areas."

He puts his hands up. "Hey, it wasn't a bunch of violent people, it was one Doctor von Wacko with a needle gun."

Albert doubted that 'Doctor von Wacko' was this guy's actual name. "So were you attempting to 'network' with someone holding a needle gun? Sounds like it went over well." He continued, "Stacy may be covering all the resources here, but I still may be able to find something useful in the library." Albert paused to think, "Besides, have you managed to salvage anything useful so far?"

"That was just plain curiosity. And at least I figured out how the anti-violence system here works," he says with a shrug. "And I've managed to dig up a formerly evil genius and a friend who kills zombies for a living, so try telling me that that might never come in handy."

"Are you scavenging for people or objects?"

"Well, I ought to continue on my way to the library. Would you like to join me? There might be people along the way for you to...'network' with." Albert suggested, partly just wanting to do some research unbothered in the library.

"There's a difference? I'm scavenging." Not like Albert doesn't already know about Howard's special brand of morality. "Eh, at least there's movies in the library if there's no one to get acquainted with."

He wasn't terribly surprised at Howard's response considering his...unique morals. "Really? Than the library has something for everyone." Albert wondered if there were any documentaries in the library.

"God, Albert, way to forget about blind people. Jeez." He rolls his eyes but tags along anyway.

"Stacy doesn't have braille?" Albert chose the direction that seemed it would be most likely to lead to the library. "Howard, you wouldn't happen to know where the library is?" He asked, doubtful that Howard had entered the library, let alone knew where it was. Well, it didn't hurt to ask.
