Voice: Train Wide Announcement thing

[hashtagparkerluck]

[ Here is the generally excited voice of one Peter Parker! ]

Hey guys, I just ordered more books from the store thing and then I got to thinking about it and Lightning's announcement about her books being in the main car gave me an idea.

[ He takes a breath to maybe keep from talking quite so fast. ]

Basically, what if like everyone that buys books all stored them in the same car? That way we can like have a Voidtrecker Express library and people that just joined us don't have to worry about not having enough points to be able to read books.

Plus it'll take up less space in the sleeper cabins so win-win for everyone. Just need shelves, I guess.

Voice - as she gets back to 1A

[enthunder]

Why shelves? Just put'em in a suitcase.

[ Obviously she's already offered her books indirectly, so she doesn't bother re-stating it. ]

[hashtagparkerluck]

Well, I guess we could...

[ he says thoughtfully. ]

But that's a lot of extra effort to just find a book to read. If we get enough we'll have to like... divide them up by Genre and alphabetize them and stuff.

[enthunder]

... Just how many books do you imagine us getting?

[hashtagparkerluck]

I dunno

but I just ordered four.

I really like to read, okay?

[runs_on_batteries]

I'd be happy to help with that.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Awesome!

Wait.

with the shelves or books?

[runs_on_batteries]

Yes.

[Tony laughs.]

I hear you have other support too from people replying, but I'll help however you need. This is your project, run with it.

[He's proud, good boy.]

[hashtagparkerluck]

[ Come on Mr Stark, why you gotta answer a this or that question with a 'yes' that's so confusing. ]

Cool, thanks Mr Stark!

I mean, I think it'll be awhile before we can actually call it a library, but eventually!

sorry... wrong order

[tinkerheart]

That's a very good idea, Peter. We should be able to repurpose a shelf from the storage carriage. I'm sure we can reorder the supplies to free one.

[hashtagparkerluck]

[ he can have good ideas. Sometimes. ]

Yeah, that should work for now. I think Lightning and I are the only ones that have bought books from the store so far.

[tinkerheart]

I saw the books Lightning got. [He doesn’t look like he’s happy with them.] What books did you order?

[hashtagparkerluck]

Mostly books for a friend that I'm hoping turns up again, her world's like way different than mine but she seems to be really interested in stuff from mine, so I thought I'd share some of my favorites.

but anyways, two books that are fictional and one with like simple science projects, and a book on advanced chemistry and physics.

video to everywhere

[myblueskies]

I can help sir!

[He's not found any store yet but he has figured out how the screens work. It was really easy so he had managed by himself! They were like phones but only had two buttons, which made it much easier!]

I live... Before I was here I mean I lived in a library so I can help you! I like reading lots! How do you buy books do I need to have money?

[hashtagparkerluck]

Oh yeah? Reading was one of my absolute favorite things to do when I was little. I mean, it was kinda one of the only things I could do. But never mind that.

You don't have to have money but you do have to have points. I'm not super sure how you get them-I'm pretty sure it's linked to teamwork, otherwise why put us in different teams.

[myblueskies]

One of the only things sir? [Why was it the only thing? Was he not allowed to do other things?

He nods at the explanation of points.]

That's good sir! I know how to do really good teamwork. I've had lots of practice so I can get points and buy lots of books for everyone to enjoy!

[faithfulson]

I wouldn't mind helping to build shelves.

[ It's barely been two days, and he's already bored. Stars help everyone on the train, but he desperately needs something to tinker with. ]

[hashtagparkerluck]

Oh! Awesome! Thanks!

[faithfulson]

Of course; I don't mind helping.

Do you have any materials to build shelves?

[unholyandbroken]

Could do a little crash course on world religions if there's interest?

Full disclosure: I was in divinity school.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Oh yeah? I went to STEM school-I've got a serious knack for chemistry and science and stuff.

And I dunno, some of them might be interested in that kinda thing but uh... there's a chance some of the people on board don't even know what religion is. just so ya know.

This is a great idea. I planned on collecting books from all of the places we visit, so we can just add those in, too.

Re: Audio:

[hashtagparkerluck]

Awesome! So, full disclosure, I may have ordered the first Harry Potter book. I really gotta figure out how his point system works because once I read the first one again, I'm gonna want to immediately read the second.

Re: Audio:

[hibana_incursa]

Hey, I love the Harry Potter book series. I may have to read that one, too. It's one of my favorites.

[dredefulchilde]

I miss my books. I would participate.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Great! And I know what you mean. I had this book I was reading about quantum physics and now I'm here instead.
