[60] there's no room for innocence

[Phone 1]

I suppose it's that time again, isn't it? New people everywhere, and a census to boot? You'd think they would know exactly how many people are here, seeing as they brought us here individually, but I digress.

For all of our newcomers, my name is Dist. Many of you have been here for a week or so and have likely come to understand the basics of Mayfield already. I'm here to expand your working knowledge, being the gracious neighbor that I am; I've written up a letter just for you, detailing the most important information you're likely to need, as well as a timeline of events that are significant to our understanding of the town.

Anyone may come by the Mayfield Library to pick up a copy, or multiple copies, for themselves; ask a drone where it is if you don't already know. I will be the man with pale hair and glasses; you'll know it's me because I happen to be gorgeous.

[And, like always, Dist can indeed be found in and out of the stacks, mostly keeping himself busy out of boredom. This job? Not the most exciting.]

[Later in the evening, and filtered from the usual suspects.]

I have realized that I cannot continue to be effective in my investigations without a more thorough working knowledge of this world and its history. Since the library has a notable lack of history books, I will need someone to inform me. Even after being here as long as I have, all I've gleaned is that America is apparently amazing and Communists are bad. This is, you understand, not enough.

We will not be going over all of this on the phones. We will arrange a time and a place and meet up then. Don't disappoint me.

(ooc: like before, if you're just interested in the letter and not CR with Dist, you don't need to go through the motions of threading to get one. ^^ He'll be handing them out to everyone, so if you would prefer not to thread it out you can just assume your character was given one and sent on their way.)

[ Ilsa normally waited until Wednesdays to make the trip to the library, but today, she has a specific task. ]

Mr Rose? My name is Ilsa Higa. I wanted to thank you for the letter.

It's been very helpful, especially explaining things to new residents, especially since I haven't been here long.

I was born in this era and have a substantial knowledge of history.

I'm not very familiar with America, either. Sorry.

I can help you.

[Mart approaches Dist, an annoyed look etched upon his face.]

You that Dist guy.... or girl?

Dist, as a former President of these United States I would gladly like to help.

[Elizabeth is also in the library, at a random part, slowly taking the books out of the shelves, looking over them, sighing a bit and putting them in a neat pile on the floor]

"Does not a single one of you contain anything but deception?"

I think it's the start of something else bad... not just keeping tabs on us.

Why did it ask who is most important to us?

This place is disturbingly interesting...

Am I talking too loud? Normal conversation tone might be a little too much on a library.

Yo. Is that Dust guy here?

Can't tell you much 'bout America, but I've been all over mosta the rest of the world.

[Beat.]

... About 30 years ago, anyway.

[He sounds bo~~orish~~red, Dist. You may want to consider your reply carefully!]

Nice hair.
