*The one good thing about being a ghost is that you are largely no longer tied to earthly possessions. As a result, she didn't really lose anything in the great Monkey Caper. She's been stumbling across peoples' lost possessions all over the place, though. Today seems to be no exception; there's a book she's just found on top of one of the buildings.*

Hmm, I wonder if this will be yet more confusing erotica.

*She opens it. And reads.

Careful observers might make out the sound of someone giggling like crazy from the top of one of the buildings. Is it worth investigating?*

Well, the first two lines weren't...that bad, were they? I don't really know anything about poetry, but they sounded nice.

[departed_child_of_gods]

That's just it, though. He starts off romantic and sappy and then totally loses the plot about halfway through on every poem. If he wished to gift this to this, ah, Titania, it is probably better that he lost it this way.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

Sounds like he might just have a short attention span. I know...a couple of guys like that.

Anyway, it's not really fair to just keep it and read it, is it? It does belong to someone else.

[departed_child_of_gods]

What do I care? I'm dead. It's not like he could kill me for it.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

That doesn't make it any more or less fair, though.

[departed_child_of_gods]

*She shrugs.*

What's fair in this world? Is it fair for a single city to be forced to remain the last bastion of hope for the multiverse? Is it fair for the best laid plans to go awry because of a technical detail or two? Fairness isn't innate. You have to make things fair for yourself. Otherwise, everything is -- and pardon me for putting it like this -- fair game.

[Latooni pauses for a moment, clearly considering this idea deeply.]

[She then reaches out to take the book and see if this person, as a ghost, would be able to physically hold onto it.]

[departed_child_of_gods]

*Apparently, yes.*

Hey, knock it off! Just ask for it if you want it! Geez, I don't want it that bad.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

Sorry. I just thought about what you said, and it kind of made sense.

[departed_child_of_gods]

*She blinks. Then smirks.*

All right, you got me. Here, take the book. Don't think it does a lotta good unless we know where the guy is though.

***YOU HAVE OBTAINED ONE (1) EMBARRASSING BOOK OF BAD POETRY***

I'm sure I can find him. Even in a city like this, there's plenty of information to find someone.
