Is anybody here a fan of Poe? I got this in my locker last jump:

[There's the sound of a paper rustling. Firo clears his throat.]

"Thy soul shall find itself alone
‘Mid dark thoughts of the gray tombstone;
Not one, of all the crowd, to pry
Into thine hour of secrecy..."

[He continues to read, impatiently speeding up at the end so the lines of the last stanza run together.]

To be honest, I never really got the end back when my friend used to read it. But it’s creepy, isn’t it? Really suits this place.

What I'm wonderin' about is if it's supposed to be some sortta threat or message. 'Cause just comin' out and sayin' it would be too easy, right?

Stuff like these, sort of. None of what I looked at had any stories I knew from home, either.

[He sighs.]

Guess we're just limited to what we find in our lockers.

[makalaure]

Hm. Then I suppose I must hope more poems show up in your locker in the future.

Ah - if you do not mind, pray could you tell me where the library is? I am still learning my way around this vessel.

[foundafamily]

I'll definitely share 'em if they do. And you can ask other people--I think I heard about a guy who was collectin' books to set up a normal library.

Yeah, sure. Don't want you gettin' lost. I think there's a few, actually, but I haven't been to all of 'em. What floor are you on?

voice;

[makalaure]

I think I will. But I am currently just outside the lowest level of the Gardens...

voice;

[foundafamily]

The gardens...

[He hesitates; if he gets this guy lost he'll never forgive himself.]

Um, the libraries are back where all the stuff for the passengers is, so I think you've got a ways to go. You know where the elevator is?

voice;

[makalaure]

Oh. ... I think I may be able to find my way...

Where are they in the passenger area?

voice;

[foundafamily]

You think? You'd better be sure before you start goin' anywhere; it's dangerous if you get lost.

Like I said, there's a few of 'em out there...

[He lists a few locations, specifying the floors they're on. They seem to be pretty evenly distributed between floors.]

[ooc: I don't think it's specified exactly where the libraries are, so I hope it's okay that I glossed over it. I can edit this, if that doesn't work!]
