[59] highly recommended, is this sweet metropolis

[Phone]

Ugh, I feel like this is all I do anymore...

Newcomers. Doubtless you've heard the basics of where you've found yourself already, from your so-called "family" or otherwise. Dist the Rose is here to give you a more in-depth explanation; that is, a letter that I myself have been so generous as to compose for you. I'm giving one out to anyone who asks, new or old; for those who have the old version, I've updated it to include the basic gist of what happened last month.

Simply come to either the library or my home, at 1767 Beaver Street. Any drone should be able to tell you where the library is; I'll be in and out of the shelves myself. Look for a slender man with pale hair and glasses.

[Action A]

[If you go to the library earlier in the day, you will indeed find Dist wandering in and out of the rows of books, alternately doing the shelving and sorting that the job requires and peeking through the books himself, pausing every so often to write down a title.]

[Action B]

[On into the afternoon and evening, he's in his driveway, detaching the gun from the Kaiser's belly; it's scorched all to hell and clearly no longer functional. He really has no clue how he's going to fix it without just building a new one from scratch, and without his lab that in itself will be difficult. Dammit, Mayfield.]


(ooc note: if you're not interested in cr with dist, there's no need to post in; you can give your character the letter without threading with me if you'd prefer. ^^ it's out there for you guys; just assume dist gave it to you without incident[shockingly]. a bit of retroactive interaction is fine too, if this shows up before you officially intro; just don't, like... dig it up a week from now if your character wasn't here.)

[Lex walks toward the driveway, observing Dist working.]

Dist, do you have some time?

I wish to make a proposal to you concerning our genius.

[The promise of information called Hilda into the library in the morning, peering through shelves to try and find the man who offered a letter containing information. It wasn't long before she turned a corner and found him.]

Hello. Are you Dist?

[Ruri stops and watches Dist for a bit]

"Do you need some help with that?"

[Library! Daniel's been meaning to visit before now, and now he has a reason. He eventually finds Dist and waves awkwardly to get his attention.]

U-um, Dist? I know you already gave me a c-copy, but I was w-wondering if you'd added anything a-and, um, if you have, if I could, um. S-scan it into my computablet?

[Which he just got back in the mail, donchaknow!]

J-just to, um. Have it somewhere safe.

[ after having briefly looked around the library, searching for this guy who supposedly has some sort of letter. ] -- hey. Do you know if there's some guy here who's giving out letters?

[Awesome, found the library. Yes, he heard that someone was giving out letters, but he didn't get to the phone in time.

Oops.

So... yeah, library, in the hopes that maybe he could find something in the history section there, with any luck.

... Wow, this section was... not helpful. History? Hiiiistory? ... Any good history? It was with a touch of relief that he found someone there without a vapid smile or a blank look in their eye, turning a corner to see Dist.

He might as well have been the only other living being on a deserted island]

Excuse me, you wouldn't happen to know if they have any local archives here or anything would you?

[Evening, you say? Where else would Bianca be? ...Well, she wants to go hang out with Hilbert, too, but Dist's house has become her home sometimes, so she's already there to help out with whatever! Even if it's just sitting around and watching Sol and Snivy play.]

That looks like it's going to be hard to fix...can you trade it in for a new one?

[While Dist is in his driveway... a sleek, silver car will just casually cruise up to the curb nearby.

It sits there quietly for a moment or two, before it starts honking at him.]

[Finding the library wasn't difficult, her drone kids pointed the way. Once there, she got sidetracked by the botany section... but with only a look she'd quickly discarded them as outdated. Which wasn't surprising.

She is now on finding that 'Dist' person.]

[Alice would very much like a better explanation of this place. She'll be poking around the stacks of books until she finds him.]

Umm, Pardon me, but are you Mr. Dist the Rose?
