Tranquility.
[ It's with a warm sort of politesse that Petyr addresses the network this time around, a crimson sash draped over one of his shoulders and a new set of robes upon his frame. Visible next to him, at the fringe of the image, is a girl with chestnut brown hair and her hands folded in her lap, who should prove familiar to at least some upon the ship. ]
I inquired some months ago as to the existence of a physical library, and was informed that the ship lacked such a facility. As such, I have taken it upon myself to begin one for the sake of those who would prefer the feel of a solid page than the, ah. Furnishings that the ship provides. My collection is meager, but it is more than what was available upon my arrival. Should you care to take advantage of it, I can be found upon the fifth level, next to the quarters that Alayne Stone — [ at the mention, the girl sitting next to him smiles prettily and offers up a wave ] — keeps as a seamstress. She has offered her help in my endeavor, to care for the books in my absence.
That said, should you be willing to part with them, we would greatly appreciate any spare books that you might have. This service is without charge, and meant simply for the comfort of those upon the ship.
I have taken the liberty of attaching the list of the books collected so far, and hope that some of you, at least, will find some use in it.
[ And, with a duck of his head, the feed cuts out. ]
ATTACHMENT.
ooc: feel free to talk to petyr or alayne or both!

[ A beat. Then: ]
This is your father?

His smile remains fixed on his face, easy and accommodating though he suspects neither means anything to the girl. With a nod: ] I am her guardian.

And now you have both made acquaintance. Is he how you imagined him? [ The question borders on rudely familiar but she is curious what Rosella might say. (A demonstration of her lack of politesse for Petyr, so that he may better understand the rules by which Rosella plays.) ]

At length: ]
I imagined him taller. [ A joke. Kind of. ] He is visually pleasing like you, however.

To his credit, however, he doesn't seem thrown off, bobbing his head once in silent thanks (jibes at his height having long since lost their sharpness), though he leaves any verbal response to Alayne. ]

I would say you flatter us, Rosella, but I know that is not your meaning. Still, the words are gratifying. We thank you for— [ How to put it. ] —for such generous estimation.

When she blinks and rights her center, back straight, there is the tiniest of nods in the tip of her chin. (One could think it's satisfied. Silence is a good measure of a teacher's capabilities.) ]
I have a copy of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne. I have read this many times before. Where should I leave it?
