[They don't even know Phoenix is here. Finally, alone. Mumbling softly to Lio in between kisses. If you're close enough to hear these sweet nothings, he's explaining why Edo was so prone to fires.]
[In an act of what is probably True Love, Lio is listening politely to this explanation? Though, also, a little more interested in the kissing part. Still, he'll give him a few "sure"s and "uh-huh"s. Wow.]
We weren't. We come here every week for curfew so we can do quizzes. And I was showing Lio some of the good books they have and we started kissing. And then you interrupted us.
[The kissing may have started as a way to distract Galo from detailing every firefighter fact in this whole library. If you were in that situation, you'd choose kissing too.]
They really care about him. They trust all his decisions, even if they don't understand them. And they get mad if anyone says something bad about him, 'cause he's a sentimental old fool.
I think whatever he did that they didn't like must've put him in danger, right? That's the only thing that fits to me.

[Again, how does he make the quote sounds around buddy with his mouth all the time. Lowering the flamethrower though.]
no subject
[ the doors are locked but he's walking away..... ]
no subject
[Never mind that he can't leave. . .]
no subject
[But make out mood is kind of ruined already. Moving away to go sit by the fire instead then, fine.]
You should be more careful.
no subject
You wouldn't want to get caught.
no subject
[He doesn't get it.]
Wait, you mean kissing? Everyone already knows. Why should I care?
no subject
I don't care. Are you jealous?
no subject
[ he is jealous actually, no one wants to smooch him ]
no subject
no subject
Would you prefer we continue out here . . . ?
no subject
[ gosh. ]
Why don't we talk a little, instead?
no subject
[He's leaning on Lio with an arm around him still, so you're not totally free.]
no subject
I don't think he wants to hear the firefighter facts.
no subject
Nah. I was thinking... house facts.
[ yeah he's going to make you assholes work so he doesn't have to see kissing ]
no subject
Like. A quiz about the house?
Just spit it out.
no subject
[ did galo see that. ]
no subject
[ to galo ]
no subject
[Did no one share this with him :/]
What did you find?
no subject
[God. Just letting Galo do the whole, cryptic question and answer game now.]
no subject
[ phoenix was going to share in first aid thread but here! ]
no subject
. . .
[He doesn't get it. Sorry. Too metaphysical.]
no subject
I believe it is a list of strategies tried by Blue, to defeat the house. We are near the bottom of the list. Taking self out of the equation.

[He looks at the list, frowning.]
They really care about him. They trust all his decisions, even if they don't understand them. And they get mad if anyone says something bad about him, 'cause he's a sentimental old fool.

The Next Morning
[But then he frowns like he's racking his brain about what the quiz is. And then he frowns even harder.]
Um. Where's Phoenix?
no subject
But he's looking around.]
I don't . . . I can't think of anything new.
no subject
[But he's distracted, getting up, and pacing.]
We need to go look for Phoenix. We can figure it out later.
no subject
[anyway, he has an extremely Bad Feeling about this - checking the rest of the library just in case.]
. . . My flamethrower is gone.
no subject
Maybe Phoenix took it . . . so he'd have something to keep him safe? C'mon, let's go look for him.
no subject
Alright. We will look. Lets begin.
