The librarian writes down your name on a card and stamps the books with the due date, which is apparently two weeks from now, the 25th. "Have a nice day!" she says with a smile, then adds, "Oh, and when's your next book coming out? I'll be happy to hold a book signing here or something like that, just let me know!"
Selena said, "You to and I might get my book done soon I don't know really," Selena also thought, "If there will be a day for tomorrow." Selena grabs the five books and walks home.
The few other people in the park closest to you give you a funny look. "You do that!" someone yells back, then immediately gets shushed by his friend.
You hear a rustle in the trees overhead that's probably a squirrel, or maybe a large bird, or maybe not.
What will you do?
Even gives a socially awkward dubble thumbs up the the person who tells back. They then grab a stick and poke it in the leaves of the tree (if nothing happens, the they try to climb it (they usually can climb trees if they're lower branches within stepping height other then that, Evan cant to a pull up so do as you will))

(The End happened on the morning of the 12th, by the way xP)
Really, why did the apocalypse have to strike at the most inconvenient time? You could've been standing outside, or at least be properly dressed, but noo, you'd just returned from the bathroom and were in your pajamas.
Not that you had any time to complain about that when the ceiling came crashing down on your head. It happened almost in a split second, you'd just registered that there was some shouting coming from outside and the hallway was looking strangely elongated, then you looked up and crash.
And then you blink to find yourself in bed, with the sun shining outside and absolutely no sign of the ceiling breaking. The most logical explanation was for it to have been a dream. But it felt nothing like a dream, just that you had been standing in the hallway one moment and now you were sitting up in bed.
What will you do?

"That's not possible, look!" She pulls out a piece of paper from her other pocket, shoving it in your face. You vaguely notice that she hadn't been keeping that or the photo in her actual bag. The paper looks like a letter - you can't read much of it seeing as her hand is covering most of the writing, but your shop's address is clearly written at the bottom. "He told me to go here..."

I shrug..... maybe the guy had the wrong address? "I.... I'm not sure why, but come on in if you like," I offer. "I'm.... Asier. Asier Tybalt. I..... own this place, I'm just another metalworker. I can.... try to help you figure this out, if you like....."

You return home and set the books on your writing desk. They're not much to look at, no fancy cover illustrations, just plain leather covers with the title in boring script.
Which book do you pick up first, or do you do something else?

She extends a hand awkwardly to shake. "Siara." She doesn't give a last name, but adds, offhandedly, "I live in the ocean." She waves a hand in the general direction of the Outlands, then gives you a piercing stare. "What can you do, then?"

"Not much," I admit, laughing nervously. "I'm good enough with my hands..... so jewelry, weapons, silverware..... but enchanting, nope. That's pretty much it."

You hear a small noise from the tree, something like a muffled yelp, you think. The tree does not have any lower branches, the nearest ones to the ground are about at your eye level. Good for smacking your face into, but not climbing.

Even walks over to the guy who yelled at them (who I hope is taller than Evan) and nervously asks "h-hey can you help me with something?" A little more confidently Even said "I think there is a dog or something in that tree and I think its stuck, could you maybe help me get it out?"
