i'm looking for an easy thing [ OPEN MINGLE ]

[hyperlit]

Who: Anyone and everyone! Who wants to look at books?
What: BOOKVALANCHE
When: Let's say from the 25th and onward for simplicity
Where: The Storyteller's Temple, in addition to the library that's finally getting some much-needed attention
Warnings: Mark anything that comes up!



The library is finally getting some renovations! Between some new bookshelves (hope someone here is good at hauling) and a veritable cascade of all sorts of books and supplies, an awful lot needs to be transferred from the Temple to the heretofore unused library, and any help anyone has to offer is much appreciated!

But, of course, there's also so very much to go through for your own perusal. Just look at all this! Coloring books, puzzle books, stories of all sorts, comic books, fashion magazines, all sorts of survival texts...you name it.

This all needs to be put away and stored in those neat little waterproofing book protectors - shelves need to be moved, supplies need to be secured, and someone should probably take inventory. But also...there's a lot of fresh new reading material on an island that previously had none.

Isn't that worth looking over?

[Izuku had just turned to head back for another bookshelf when Starflight's head popped through the door. It was close and unexpected enough to get a startled yelp out of him. At this point, though, he's probably getting used to this happening at the cottage, and he recovers quickly enough.

In fact, once he notices just how far in Starflight's wedged himself, he can't help laughing a bit.]

On it!

[With a crackle of One for All he hauls the book-bundles up, one in each arm, and jogs them over to the nearest table - though not before giving Starflight an unpowered teasing poke in the shoulder (more of a barely-there shove, really, because scales).] We really need to find a better way to handle doors.

[ Even knowing the poke was teasing it did bring attention to the fact he was taking up a lot of space and it made Starflight a little self conscious. He sat back, craning his neck inside, which was awkward but at least now there was room for people to squeeze past him. ]

I know. Why does everything here have to be so small? Nothing on this island is dragon-sized.

[heroondecku]

I guess the original inhabitants didn't know anyone who got that big?

[It's a strange situation for Izuku, too - he's used to buildings being designed to accommodate all kinds of body shapes, sizes, and builds, thanks to mutation Quirks. He kind of wishes his classes went into more detail on how that sort of thing works, just in case it could help make things easier on Starflight.

He sets about unloading the books, mostly just stacking them into vaguely organized piles on the table...and a thought strikes him.]

Hey, maybe we got some books that can help! Ones on construction or architecture or something.

[SURELY OBSESSIVE RESEARCH CAN SOLVE ANY PROBLEM]

[petrifiedshadow]

Maybe, though I haven't seen any yet. I don't remember seeing if anyone requested anything like that on the rock.

[ He leaned back inside, trying to make out the titles on some of the other books but they were too far away. ]

Did you request anything?
