Class "G" Disaster

Yep, that’s some super power you got there…

No appointment, but I think it'll be okay.

S-Sorry, I was just…t-talking to myself. Feeling a b-bit homesick, t-that is all. I did n-not mean t-to bother you…again. 

Well if you want to get rid of that feeling, just remember that your home probably isn't there anymore.

나는 얼마쯤 한복을 입고 그리워. 

... I have no idea what the hell you're saying.

Do you have some kind of sadistic personality disorder? Sociopathy, maybe?

Nope, just a complete inability to give an actual fuck. That and mud seem to be a bad combo, huh?

There was a force and a desire with the way she pulled him to her that Gage was almost sure he'd never feel from someone else again. Sure he'd felt it in the elevator but he let that go as nothing more than nerves and the fact that they were both trying to live a little before they certainly died. But this was safe solid ground, though it might not have felt like it as her lips worked over his. And then she was pulling away again. Fuck if this was her way of playing hard to get, he was going to scream. 

Attic. Basement. Find space, Gage, it’s fairly simple and you’re an adult. I have faith that you can find somewhere to put your books that won’t end in injury. And if your dog touches any of my clothing I hope you know you’re paying for the replacements.

Like he'd be interested in your shit. He still doesn't like the way you smell and I can't say I blame him.

Have you been keeping time? I said fifteen minutes, right? How long has it been? Two minutes? Thirty seconds? Please say two minutes.

That's fine I'll just wander around the shop with muddy feet while I wait.

Are you amusing yourself?

In public? Never.

Holy stood in the door and gave the guy a nod before looking around a little. She didn’t have a clue what to look for. Books had always scared her somewhat. She’d tried to read as much as she could all her life so that she didn’t end up completely illiterate, but life on the street didn’t really help Holy’s young mind trying to learn. Holy knew she’d need help looking for a book so she figured asking the guy at the desk. “Uh— I could use a hand.” The brunette said as she popped her head around one of the book cases.

Gage looked up from the book for a moment then rolled his eyes and shoved the bookmark in, setting on top of the counter. "Fine but I hope you know what you're looking for. I've had to deal with too many people today asking me to play personal shopper for them. I'm not a book review site." He crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the girl, raising his eyebrows. "Well? What're you looking for?"

Her shift doesn’t start for another fifteen minutes, but you’re welcome to hang around until then… Just try to keep the footprints to a minimum. 

And yet you say that and it just makes me want to stomp around.

"Oh. Okay. Alright    uhm. Can you just tell me, like, one of your favourites? Or anyones favourites. Or I can leave, I don’t care.”

Look, man I can't help you if you don't give me a freaking starting point. I'm not going to suggest The Count Of Monte Cristo if you're an Angels and Demons kind of person. Help me help you here. Or you can leave, I don't care.

Probably not, but if you want to give it a go...

Honestly? Honestly? I just mopped these floors, and you’re tracking mud and—- No, y’know what, don’t worry about it. The maid’ll get it. 

Wasn't like I meant to. But hey, at least you still have the mop handy.

"Yeah, actually. I’m kinda behind on modern lit - actually any literature, really? Could you give me a bunch of those ‘must read’ stuff?"

I can give you a "go find something yourself". I'm not here to hold your hand while you pick out books. I'm here to ring you up or help you find something specific. All the books have backs or inside jackets. You'll find the synopses there. Have fun.

The rex part just doesn’t go with it. 

Yes it does. It was a joke that no one gave a shit about until Jurassic Park where Timmy said it. It was a nothing joke before that. 

Oh yes, the official museum definition. 

Or the correct answer to the joke.

"What do you call a blind dinosaur? A Doyouthinkhesarus!"

It's Doyouthinkhesaurus Rex.
