I was wondering if people would like to do a literary swap? I've scavenged a book or two, and read them cover to cover.

I thought we might barter.

It's a moot point, without currency.

So then let two individuals who want to do that sort of thing do it, and don't try industrializing it.

I really was only teasing, young lady.

... there are enough people who share similar sentiments to make me reply earnestly. Don't think that I was riled up or any such thing.

It's a good thing we have you to defend the imaginary prostitutes.

Did you want the books or not, then?

I still haven't found you one to trade- oh. I think I might have one, actually.

It doesn't need to be a trade. I'd appreciate whatever you have, though... what are you thinking of?

It's probably antique to you, but I found a house not long ago with emancipation literature and pamphlets.

... emancipation? From America's Civil War? Either way, that does sound interesting....

I think that's what it means. I'm just parroting the language- I'm afraid we don't have much like that in my world.

But the coordinates were here, approximately-

Oh... thank you, then. Did you settle on what sort of book you wanted in return?

[video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Let me get back to you?

[bookish-lioness.livejournal.com]

All right, that's fine. Er... my name's Hermione, by the way, so you can get in touch with me later.

Break. Xerxes Break.

It's been a pleasure, Hermione.

[video]

[bookish-lioness.livejournal.com]

Mm. Yes, Mr. Break, thank you. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

[Unfortunately, a few short hours after this post, he vanishes from Adstringendum. The trade will be postponed indefinitely, since he'll be unable to remember it when he returns.]
