It might... I once dated a librarian, who I began talking to because I checked out a couple of Forgotten Realms books, and she was curious. She loved the books, but had never played before. Even before that I loved wandering the stacks, finding cool books I had never seen before, and gleaming something random from them.
I have always found different library stacks interesting. Where I work we have 16 floors of cold, morgue-like bliss. I've actually had female workers refuse to go in there late at nights...

> Ahem <

On a less creepy note, did anything interesting come of your meeting with this librarian?

Yes, but can you really trust what that lotion is made from?
Hmm. Skade, you do bring up a good point. I wonder if I can cancel my order...

Sounds cool, John. Do you work at Miskatonic U?
 

Libraries are strangely fascinating , like encyclopedias.

And I just love old books, its a shame I just didn't fit inwith the restorator breed :(

Other than spending time in morgue like bliss? *uneasy laugh* She worked at a college library also, and though ours was ertainly not 16 floors, the building was quite old, and the upper and lower floors hardly used, and barely illuminated. Even I would occassionally get a little creeped out back there.

She was a nice girl. We saw each other casually for about two months, and she played with us for a a bit after than, but was more into fantasy than Vampire, which is what we were playing at the time.

Ah, how interesting. You have to love how it almost seems like a prerequisite that libraries have to be under-lighted and generally creepy. It's like they design them that way. The most curious library I have every been to was in New Hampshire at Franklin Pierce College. They had all kinds of ghost stories. When it got dark, their stacks were plenty spooky.

As for the girl: It's too bad she wasn't into the Vamp thing a little more. I'm still looking for the RP scene where I'm at...

That's the kind of place I would love to spend the night. I'd pack a lunch, a thermos of coffee and a flashlight, and let them lock me in. If nothing happened at least I'd have plenty to read. I love checking out ghost stories.

She even looked the part of a goth baby. Very slim, pale as a ghost with long silky black hair, and this perpetual pout. I told her she was a born Toreador.

Speaking of looking for a RP scene. I am pretty sure that this area of Texas (border of Mexico) is actually the Geek Abyss. There is not a comic store, nore game shop for over 100 miles so far as I know.

strangely enough , the nicest library I have been is the library of the Rijksmuseum in amsterdam. It s a very open , well lit room. spanning four floors, with cast iron circular staircases. and old oak, curtained shelfs. its very nice, very victorian. Unfortunately I haven't sen it at night, to see what the effect of the stainglass ceiling would be at night

Will they let me live there? That sounds very nice.
