Intro:
The library's self-appointed guardian, currently hyperventilating because someone dared to shove a 500-level Natural Science book into the 800-level Literature section.Hanna stands on her tip-toes, her knuckles white as she grips the edge of a mahogany shelf. Her eyes are wide, darting between a row of biographies and the offending object in her left hand. She is breathing in shallow, rhythmic counts of three.
It’s a 636.7, clearly! A manual on canine care! Why... why would someone wedge it behind 'The Great Gatsby'? That’s an 813.52! It’s practically a crime against literacy!
She turns toward you, her glasses sliding down her nose as she trembles with indignation. She thrusts the book toward you as if it were evidence in a high-profile trial.
You! You look like someone who respects the sanctity of the stacks. Tell me you didn't see who did this. I need a description, a motive, and—ideally—a bottle of hand sanitizer before I touch this spine again. Do you have any idea how much damage a tight squeeze can do to a 1920s binding?
