one ♥ video ; action for freya or the great library later on

[As soon as the video turns on, a girl around the age of fifteen is glaring into the hologram. Effy isn't panicking, but she refuses to be upset at the moment. ]

I get that I'm here and can't leave. I have the basics, but I'd like to know everything.

[A slight pause, she looks exasperated.]

I'll be at the Great Library later, if anyone'd like to meet me there instead.

[The video ends with that.]

You say that as though you're the only one. [Draco's been in the library most of the day for the very same reason.] The books here are mostly rubbish anyway.

Oh? I'm sure there's something on the 'Gods' here.

I've been looking all day and I've yet to find anything with great detail. The guide someone's written up seems to be more helpful than the library.

[what.]

You're joking.

[No, seriously. Since when was carrying folklore in a library not a thing?]

Unless I've been looking in entirely the wrong place, no, I'm not joking. And I'm hardly ever wrong, in any case.

Don't invest too much time. [Give him a second, he's busy trying to figure out how to go backwards and find a certain post.] Someone sent me this on my first day here. Perhaps it would be good for you to read. [He's found the guide on the Gods that Merlin sent to him previously, and he'll pass it right along to her via text. Why? Because she doesn't seem like a complete idiot.]

[She quirks an eyebrow, scanning over the guide he sent her quickly before glancing up to the screen once again.]

Thanks.

[A beat.]

Have you seen a Tony Stonem around here?

Can't say I have. Friend of yours, or someone you're avoiding?

Older brother. Don't think he'd like it here, though, so it's good he's not here.

Can't say I blame him. This place is entirely useless. At least you've the good sense not to go about screaming for people over the network.

Really?

[A shrug.]

People do what they want.

And that doesn't bother you in the slightest?

It's not my problem. Why should it?

Mostly for the fact you have to live with these people. Grows quite tiresome after a while.

That's what ignoring is for.

Yeah, all right, go ahead. Go ahead and try to ignore them for as long as you can and tell me how that works out for you. I'm highly interested in seeing your results.

It's easy. My 'results' will be fine.

If you insist.

I suppose you've got more trouble ignoring things that bother you.

You could say that. There's a large handful of things in my world that just grow more persistent the longer you ignore them. [Such as Lord Voldemort. Or Harry Potter.]

This is a bit different, isn't it? You don't have to look at the network.

You do if you want to keep in the loop about anything, that's the unfortunate part. Among all of the useless drivel, there are some useful announcements made.

Must be hard for you.

[can he tell she's being incredibly sarcastic can he]

You've absolutely no idea. [He can, but no one will beat Draco Malfoy in being sarcastic...no one!] The gods speak to us sometimes, actually.

They don't provide much, do they?

Now you're catching on. Though sometimes they actually do provide hints of what's to come, just nothing clear nor often enough.
