[Caroline is over by the shelves of books, rifling through them with an increasingly sour look of disappointment. She is also muttering to herself in what she thinks is a quiet voice. Operative word: "thinks." She doesn't really have a quiet setting.]

Fiction? All fiction? Not that I'm not interested in their literary achievements and collections, but you'd think they'd realize that they have a wealth of scientific and magical knowledge that they could be sharing as well. I'll have to tell that Skokan fellow that I need to requisition some...
oregoniandionysus: (think that one's optional)

Good luck.

[He looks up with just his eyes, takes a sip of his drink.]

Lesson One: Nysgods are not the most forthcoming with information.

Tell me about it. It's so terribly selfish of them. This is why I've never been fond of all-powerful sorts. They always think they know what's best for everyone. If I had listened to that kind of nonsense, I'd never even have gotten out of Texas.

But there are other ways. There's always another way.

And in the meantime, there is Carroll. [The book he's been reading gets tilted up slightly: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.]

Which is seeming more and more appropriate by the day, really. I wonder if old Lew ever got kidnapped by Nysgods, or if it was all just the epilepsy.

I wasn't under the impression their kidnappees ever ended up going back. So it was probably the epilepsy. But it is rather a mad tea party here though, isn't it? I've heard nonsense, compared with which this would be sensible as a dictionary!
oregoniandionysus: (that's a puzzler)

It certainly feels like time is standing still, most days.

[He gives her an appraising glance. She mentioned both 'magic' and 'Texas,' which makes it a distinct possibility...]

Brakebills?
itsaboutwhynot: (but what are your thoughts on yaoi)

[personal profile] itsaboutwhynot 2012-07-09 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
MIT, by way of Hard Knocks, actually. [With a name as ridiculous as that, it must be a magic institution.] I don't think I've heard of that one, but it might not be local to my universe.
oregoniandionysus: (that's a bit embarassing)

[personal profile] oregoniandionysus 2012-07-09 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it was worth a shot.

[He looks back at the book, but it's obvious he isn't reading it anymore. An amusing thought occurs.]

...but the Ivy League spans the multiverse.
