[How goes it, Prospero?

If any of you are awake around this time, you can make out from the feed large stacks of books and papers scattered around. It looks like whoever owns this phone is in the library, but there's no one sitting in the chair in from of the camera. Just then, another pile of books land on the desk, and they shake the phone. The chair moves and it appears to be Nathan.

A pencil behind his ear, he reaches behind him and pulls out a small notebook it appears. He takes a seat and pulls over a few books, writing something in the journal.] Let's see...

If these tales are right... [The next part is more to himself, but some of the words can be picked out from his speech. 'Location, adventure, treasure.' Looking up in the middle of whatever it is he's doing, he notices the phone, raises a brow at it.]

Are you-- aww, come on!

[He reaches over to turn off the feed, shaking his head.]

Having a bit of trouble, Nathan?

[Guess who was napping when that video popped up?

This guy! This guy right here.

Not that it mattered much to him. He was curious to what Nate was doing, and what he was researching.]

[video]

[caliberill]

--It's Nate. [COME ON, WHAT DOES HE HAVE TO DO.]

And no, but thanks for asking. Did I wake you or something?

[video]

[fourteenthscion]

My apologies. [WHY ARE YOU EVEN RESEARCHING BOY]

Not at all. I should be awake at the moment, anyway. [A shrug, and he peers through the video.] Researching?

[video]

[caliberill]

[BECAUSE IT'S NIGHT TIME AND NO ONE WAS SUPPOSED TO ASK HIM ANYTHING] It's fine, I'm just better with it.

Uh-- sort of. [He holds up a book and it looks to be one of those urban legend things from the binding.] Just making a map.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Whatcha looking up, Nate?

[Video]

[amnesiadragon]

What tales?

[Tell himmmmmmm. 8D ]

[video]

[caliberill]

[WHY ARE YOU STILL AWAKE Looking over, he offers a small wave before pointing the cover of the book to the screen: Of Treasure and Legend, it says.]

Reading up on some tales. They're pretty interesting... [And they may be true, so.]

[video]

[caliberill]

Ryu, why're you awake at this time? [Shouldn't you be asleep? WHAT IS THIS.]

Eh-- tales about some things I heard the other day.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

[LATE NIGHT PROGRAMMING OF COURSE]

You like reading about things like that?

Video

[yewbow]

[A wild Robin Hood appears.]

I think I've heard something interesting. What tales, if I may ask?

[video]

[fourteenthscion]

[WELL YOU'RE GETTING QUESTIONS NOW]

A map of what? [Don't mind all his questioning, Nate. He's just curious and all of that.]

[not here] 1/3

[hellburner]

[PING]

[PING]

[PING]

[Her ahoge probably straightened like a fucking radio antenna upon hearing 'adventure' and 'treasure'.]

[not here] 2/3

[hellburner]

[Moments later, there is a streak of red and pink flying down the streets of Prospero on a fucking skateboard.]

[Possibly leaving a trail of fire behind her, because shit that is fast.]

[action]

[hellburner]

[Outside the library, there is the sound of a woman on a skateboard crashing into something.]

[Then silence.]

[Then? High-heeled boots stampeding over to the door like the sound of incoming death. Followed immediately by Francis Motherfucking Drake bursting into the room like fireworks on Chinese New year.]

[And it's the Year of the Dragon, bitches.]

Where are we going, when do we leave, and most importantly, what are we after?

[video]

[amnesiadragon]

I couldn't sleep.

[Ooh? Neat.]

What kind of things?

[video]

[caliberill]

[GO BACK TO BED OLD MAN]

Some of the stuff I'm reading about-- I'm figuring out where it would be in this day if the story here is from awhile back.

[video]

[caliberill]

[SO CLASSY ATSURO]

Yeah, I do actually. It's pretty interesting if you figure out a lead that points to it being true.

[video]

[caliberill]

Huh? [Hello, you do not look familiar but I'm sure Nate's head will spin when you tell him your name.]

Oh-- tales of treasure, just stories that I'm going off of here. You're welcome to the books when I'm done, pal.

[video]

[caliberill]

Treasure, as far as I know. [Nate. Stop telling people about your plans.]

There might actually be some here in Prospero.

[action] 1/2

[caliberill]

[Nate looks up at his phone to make sure it's not own, but he can't help this weird feeling...

Like something's coming.]

[video]

[amnesiadragon]

Really? Where? I could use some money for a sword.

[caliberill]

[O-OH. Hi Francis Drake.



sob.] How did you-- Nevermind.

[Lifting his journal, he waves it to the other. He's good at direction and the maps are easily readable. Thank you art skills that he picked up.] Sometime this week, I've been reading up on these rumors and if they're right, there's some buried treasure here in Prospero.

[video]

[fourteenthscion]

[Screw you Soap. I do what I want.]

The internet would be easier to use than digging through old books, would it not? [Says the guy who still digs through books.]

[video]

[caliberill]

A swo-- What have you been fighting with?

[video]

[caliberill]

[It's all fun and games till someone falls down the stairs.]

Well, yeah but-- [He likes old fashioned, go away. :c] I don't know, I always figures texts are more reliable than the internet. Anyone can put stuff on there. These books are old, a little more.. certified.
