MONDAY AFTERNOON...ISH...

[parodeity]

[ so anyway i guess the striders are very willing to take punishment and stupid risks. dave opts to make his choice as [ redacted role ] on monday after they patch themselves up from round one. after that, they head to the locked building to try to pry some boards off the windows to see if they can like.

see inside?

if not they'll probably #yolo and open the thing anyway. ]

[Also if there's a history of science in this world Just In Case.]

[Nope! Nothing on the motel, unfortunately. If they check what little remains of the geography section (which is next to the history section, according to the map), they'll find that any local maps have been damaged to the point where only the parts they're familiar with are visible.

The world history books would have a section on the development of science throughout the centuries, up to the Age of Enlightenment. There's nothing that explains Yuggoth's fascination with time and space, however.]

[ oh as long as they're here. are there any cthuhlhustknlktawlktwt i am not spelling today but books on lovecraftian beastiaries. ]

[IA IA]

[abhoth]

[Well.

A copy of the Necronomicon for Children has found its way into the Library. Someone's doodled a bunch of angry and annoyed faces into the corners of the pages, even vandalizing a few with commentary on how Lovecraft is the woooooooorst.

Super mature, mystery annotator.]

[parodeity]

[ guess we're stealing that, too.

then i guess time to sneak out of the library?

i need 2 know what's in the book by abigail that would stick out as well tho. ]

[ABSCOND TIME YEAH

But yeah Dirk'll be taking the Abigail book and probably the other science books and I'd guess he's going to go sit with Violet and talk to her about what they find because they're the scienciest ones?]

[abhoth]

[Abigail's book discusses the possibility of multiple realities and multiple timelines, and how the vast world they see around them is only a fragment of something larger. One particular excerpt reads: "Imagine multiple versions of yourself, some identical both others vastly difference. Imagine infinite possibilities, infinite consequences to your choices. Imagine every single one of them is real."

tl;dr: The book talks about, among other things, the possibility of there being millions of versions of each and every person who has ever existed. This concept isn't too strange for the both of them, though.


and also pretend that reply heckup never happened smh]

[parodeity]

[ yeah wow thanks dave already assumed this was the case abigail. OH WELL!!!

he will lock the door behind them if they get out unscathed i guess? ]

[splinten]

[Can't believe they probably didn't die

Also he yanks Goodnight Azathoth on the way out because he can't help himself.]

[The Striders will live to ninja another day. Godspeed, Hardy Boys.]
