4th shopping trip [Voice] Backdated to August 13th

[Though she typically prefers video communication, Bulla deliberately selects voice. It's difficult to tell whether she sounds a little off because she's tired, depressed, or sick, but she's definitely not her usual upbeat and sociable self.]

Hi, everyone. I could use some suggestions for a distraction or three. Preferably something where you don't have to move around much.

[Truthfully, she's tired, depressed, and not feeling well, though it's due to an injury rather than illness. Her mother has vanished from Luceti, and she's recovering from the worst injury she's ever had in her life courtesy of a cultist.]

...and if you're suggesting reading, please suggest a specific book, because I've already read everything I have here in the house.

I work in the library. I would be happy to hold a copy for you if you'd like. You'll have to let me know how you liked it once you've finished.

Oh, okay. I'd appreciate that. I think I'm going to have to take it easy for another week at least.

[Which is distressingly boring for a sociable girl, although with the mood she's been in lately, having something quiet to immerse herself in is welcome. She still craves socialization, but less so than normal.]

Alright. May I have your name so I know who to hold it for?

My name is Bulla. Bulla Brief. Who should I ask for at the library?

voice;

[funnygirl]

Alright, Bulla. That's a lovely name. You may ask for Belle. I work most days so finding me shouldn't be difficult.

Thank you, Belle. If I don't stop by today, I probably will tomorrow.

There's no rush. I can hold the book for at least a week. But I'll let the others know I'm expecting you in case I'm not around when you come by.

I appreciate it, Belle.

[She's still feeling a little self-conscious about her injury, not to mention it's still very sore. She's hoping she'll be able to cover it up better soon.]
