Bulletin Post #1

[ Pinned to the bulletin board in the lobby is a neatly handwritten note on a page from the logbook provided to them by the library. ]

To Whom It May Concern,

Greetings. For those whom I have not yet been introduced to, my name is Mrs. Mina Harker. I understand that we have all been brought here recently, from many different places, times, and worlds. Speaking for myself, this has been a distressing series of events, and I have no doubt it has been for others as well.

That said, I believe that the best way to overcome such hardship is to find useful means of employment. I keep a diary, in which I have recorded many of my experiences and observations since arriving here. Perhaps there are others here who have done similarly. I plan to type up some of my relevant notes into a readable manuscript, and I would be very willing to do the same for others. If we can compile our findings into one document, I believe this could assist all of us in discovering more about why we are here, the nature of this place, how we may accomplish a return to our homes, &tc. Perhaps together we can learn what individually we would not be able to.

If there is already such an endeavour underway, please consider this my offer of assistance.

Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Mina Harker

[If Mina looks, very, VERY closely, she can tell that the response, in a perfect typewritten font... Is hand written, with little tiny errors that aren't the type a typewriter could make.]

I mean, I understand the value of habit and norms, but is it really employment if unpaid? For me, it was just kinda part of life at a monastic library.

But I'm certainly up for sharing what notes I've worked out! Which uh isn't much, admittedly. Other than 'try to look up films before I watch them', lest I discover entirely new kinds of trauma buttons for myself.

Fair enough. Certainly, trying to focus on... Well, the real question is what the goal we pursue is.

I'll get with you as time allows.
