ORIENTATION ♔ playing the role with nerves left exposed

[rationalizes]

WHO || Gar, Kat, Dawn, open! feel free to bump into them
WHAT || Gar meets with her squire
WHERE || Library
WHEN || May 6 [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam

Shortly after her squiring, Dawn receives a call from a cheerful Sir Gar, asking her to meet eher in the library, where she's taking a break from research, so that they can chat about her new role in the Knights.

When she arrives, it's easy enough to locate Gar, considering she's made a leaning tower of books that looks ready to topple at the slightest touch. Camped in a chair next to her, with a black cat curled up on her lap, is a blonde girl who looks barely (if) out of her teens, sporting a camo jacket and combat boots. Gar's chewing on a pencil as she thumbs through some pages, while the blonde plays around on her phone.

[ If she notices the look Kat gives her, she's putting on a good show of not seeing it. Best foot forward, don't land that foot in your mouth, etc. ]

So, join the Knights to help the world, stay for the badass library and friendship?

[rationalizes]

The library is something, isn't it? And it's only one of several in the castle.

[watcherjunior]

Only one? [ Someone may be a bit too excited. ] I really need to explore this place more. But then I think I'll get lost and I doubt anyone's put up any of those 'YOU ARE HERE' maps like they have at the mall.

[shootfirst]

You could always use your Drakenet GPS.

[watcherjunior]

That... works in here? [ This is the face of someone who now feels stupid for not thinking of that. ]

[rationalizes]

We block out scrying, but not our own satellites.

[watcherjunior]

Smart. Knowing my luck, I'd end up wondering into a part of the place I'm not supposed to be. Or walk in on something that I can't unsee later.

[shootfirst]

Funny, that's also one of the problems we face on account of shared bathrooms.

[watcherjunior]

Oh, ew. [ Her nose wrinkles with that expression of disgust. ] Of course they couldn't keep it to their private rooms. No, let's do that kind of stuff in shared spaces.

[rationalizes]

Er, perhaps we could speak on your... knightly duties. [ instead of that. anything but that. ]

[watcherjunior]

[ Oops. ] Sorry. Kinda strayed from the topic. Right. Knightly duties.

[rationalizes]

Have you had a chance to look around the castle much, to see the resources we have to offer? Outside the library, that is...
