How many times do I have to tell you I came back as the School’s Librarian because I wanted a nice safe place to settle back in? I've been out of practice for a very long time and I had to brush up on my studies.
It was peaceful, quiet and with each day I felt...hmmm, more involved you might say.
The next thing you know I'm hunting around a morgue for lost students, I'm settling in staff and
trying to set up housekeeping under ridiculous circumstances then I find myself pulling out some old medical equipment (oh don't look like that, I'm referring to the straight jackets) for some Ghost Hunters who decided to try to dive out a window in my library and haven't been quite the same since.
From the looks of them right now, the kindest thing to do was let them fly.
I had to put them in the Isolation Ward; it's the safest place really. Nothing in there can hurt them. I just wish you wouldn't have done that damaged to the door because I've had to restrain all eight of them in there.
It was no easy task...look, one even bit me.
So it's you and me now, until the next shift anyway.
The rest? They're all tucked away safely, the students, the Ghost Hunters (sorry, no I'm okay I was trying not to laugh and I choked a bit there) the curious and the very, very stupid. Tucked away and waiting for... well, you know, help.
Ignore the yelling, I do. It's good practice; it's only going to get worse later.
Yes, it's a good thing the Midnight Shift kept the place up all these years.
They better have, the lazy brutes.
So now let me see here, the beds are ready, the treatment rooms and the equipment are in perfect working order.
Why even the Plague Church is ready.
Now there's a happy surprise.
Everything is ready and I think it's time to begin our rounds. Shall we start with the Isolation Ward? No, you first Jonathan. And do quit calling me by that silly name. How long exactly have you been in that room? It's me; it's your wife...
It's Delphine.
Come Darling, you first...
I insist.

Shhh, Shiloh, be really careful about that. Anita told me the one thing that immediately alerts Delphine to someone's presence is laughter. She won't tolerate it.
Guys! Wait till you see the next installment that's when the fun will really start.
And I could use some fresh stories here...hint hint...
