So, I see that there are many new people, and you may count yourselves as lucky as you can in this place because Dist the Rose is here to take care of you all. I'm sure you've been informed as to the basics of Mayfield, but I've put together a lovely little primer for just this kind of occasion, giving you all of the details you need to bring you fully up to speed, including the most important things that have been inflicted upon us since the first of us can remember arriving here. If you would like to be informed, then come to the library to pick up a copy. If you can't find it, ask any drone where it is, they'll be able to tell you. Look for a gorgeous man with pale hair; someone as extraordinary as myself will stand out.
[And, just a little louder but no so much so that he's quite up to normal talking level.]
And be sure to pick up your free library card! Knowledge is power and all that.

[And there Dist will be, flitting about, stacking things and shelving things and generally keeping himself busy. He'll also be available to assist anyone who just so happens to be in the library themselves, though every so often he'll have to stop and sit to rest a bit, possibly get down a granola bar outside the view of the head librarian. He can't fit his chair through the door, let alone down the aisles of books, so he's walking everywhere and carrying things and with his condition this tires him out quickly.]

Date: 2011-02-09 12:03 am (UTC)You. [Said rather bluntly.] Are you the man who called my house today?

Date: 2011-02-09 02:42 am (UTC)I called everyone's house. My name is Dist, not you. What do you want?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-09 03:27 am (UTC)That's a rude introduction. You know, there have been a lot of phone calls and I'm sure they are pissing my so-called father off. Do you know how frustrating it is for the master to become the supposed servant?
[She manages a tiny sigh, flipping her hair over her shoulders.]
I came here seeking information you offered to give, but I won't tell you if I am a newcomer or not.

Date: 2011-02-10 04:25 am (UTC)You don't care that I am a newcomer? What if I were an enemy of your's just seeking the information you had? You willingly give away this informatio--
[And she pauses.]
What do you want in return for your information?

Well, I'm amazingly generous, so I'll simply take your name now and ask for my favor in the future, yes?
no subject
Date: 2011-02-11 01:40 am (UTC)I'm a magus of my word though and you have it, as long as the information is valuable.

Date: 2011-02-12 03:03 am (UTC)[Oh, of course she could always go and piece together all of it slowly, but for one she doesn't need to know that and for another... well, having people need him is an ego trip.
He leans down to rummage around under the counter.]

Any books on magecraft?

It's all watered-down "appropriate" nonsense.

Date: 2011-02-14 08:51 pm (UTC)[Rin reaches out to try to take the letter from his hold.]
Just how much information is in this?
