the truth is, everyone wishes to be saved.

The execution has come and passed with the death of two more Agents. However time moves on without cease and so must the living. There are no celebrations, only the silence that grows heavier and heavier with every day and the feeling that something is pleased with what it has done.

There are two more days before the new week arrives: what will you do?

[Emil takes the book]

I have never really read books for leisure, so this should be...

[...oh. Oooh what's going on here. Emil can barely turn the pages, he looks like he dreads what he's going to find next]

Is this...a cultural something from America I'm not understanding?

[onemolife]

It could be! Might need to read more of it to be sure. Maybe we can learn something new about their culture from it's pages?

[ He's keeping a straight face while saying this ]

[impyroverished]

[Emil turns another page. He looks like his regrets are welling in his eyes]

The Americans are...shameless.

[onemolife]

[ Peeking over at the page. ]

Ah, it seems like they are. Though the writing is a lot more creative than I thought.

[impyroverished]

...

[Ooooh no. What's he reading. What's this language. Why.]

I don't think creative is the right word to use.

[Inwardly she hopes the book rescue mission he had been in before the Foundation got him didn't include bringing books like this one. If he risked his life to save porn books he'll be so upset]

[onemolife]

I mean you have to be creative to at least translate what they are trying to get at.

[ Those are some... very very weird description.

A pause as he spots a really weird one and he starts snickering. ]

Do you think they all really wrote like this?

[impyroverished]

They must have. It's so bad.

[He looks around]

Does that mean this entire library is full of books like...this one? Because that's horrible.

[onemolife]

[ Looking around as well. ]

That's a very good question. Maybe we should go around checking to see how many we can find that's like this?

[impyroverished]

That's going to take ages...

[Emil already feels so tired. These books are so not worth it]

I have seen people taking books out of here by the dozen. Are they really into...this stuff?

[onemolife]

[ Look, some are damaged or getting frozen by Subete? That takes care of some of them. ]

Depends on the person. If it's one of the guys, then there's a pretty good chance.

[impyroverished]

It's been all guys. I would have never thought Subete would be interested in...this.

[Subete, what the hell]

Dazai I'm not that surprised, but Subete?

[onemolife]

It's always the ones who look like they wouldn't be interested in it that wind up with the larger stash.

[ Maybe he should sneak some books under Subete's bed just to add on to this. ]

I bet even Romani has peeked at such a book.

[ Because WWX but details ]

[impyroverished]

No way. I'm never going to be able to look at them the same way.

[onemolife]

Hey, it's normal for guys to be interested in this. Even some girls.

[impyroverished]

I...guess...?

[What's the state of the erotic book indutry in SSSS? Most likely inexistent]

But at least they should get something that's not so awful. This has to be the worst written thing ever.

[Then again, he has read...maybe like six books in his entire life? What does he know]

[onemolife]

Well, this is from a time when this writing was popular. There are other books that was just as awful, but without the other stuff.

[ He's been nosing through some of the books there ]

[impyroverished]

So...that's how all old books are like? Seriously?

[Emil sounds disappointed]

[onemolife]

It makes you wonder if they were paid by the word instead of the content.

Or maybe it was a popular trend.
