"What is it?" Bella asks Bar.

A certain variety of elf blood.

"Some places get elves and some places are all humans and we get demons. Lucky us."
Permalink

"I approve of these elves, wherever they come from."

Permalink

"Can you tell a lot about how good their company would be from their flavor?"

Permalink

"No, but I approve of their flavour very much."

Permalink

"Should I be jealous?"

Permalink

"You have many other qualities to recommend you."

Permalink

"Gosh, this multiversal hub business is just setting out to assault my self-esteem, isn't it. Mark took fifteen seconds to get a potentially deadly hit in, elves are yummier than me, the less said about Linyabel the better..."

Permalink

"There, there. You're still my favourite living creature, how's that?"

Permalink

"That's good."

Bella flips through the material Bar supplied on Linyabel. She finds the article with the photograph. "Apparently," she says, "this is what I'd look like if I was heavily genetically engineered. And didn't need to dress for practicality and was a Space Noblewoman."

Permalink

"Yes," says Sherlock, "seems about right."

Permalink

"The hair is really something. It looks so heavy."

Permalink

"Apparently her husband is in the habit of braiding it elaborately. Mark's creators stole a length of appropriately engineered hair from a collector and made him practice. He says it's very soothing."

Permalink


"That's hilarious. I mean, the context is lousy, but that's still hilarious."
Permalink

"Isn't it just," Sherlock agrees.

Permalink

"But given that my extremely intimidating mirror universe twin is inaccessible I'm trying to think of other useful things to do with access to this bar while I'm here. Notions?"

Permalink

"Appropriately futuristic textbooks in whatever areas you please. Small useful items such as laser pointers. Drag Giles in here and get him to buy any book he wants and doesn't have."

Permalink
"I suppose unless Giles does something unwise like ask where Mark has gotten to it's probably about time to summon him back, isn't it."

She goes to the door and opens it.

"Hey, Giles, did you know Bar does books?"
Permalink
"I did not know that," he says.

He looks at Sherlock. He declines to comment.
Permalink

"She does! Do you have your wallet on you? She does charge for the books. But 'out of print' is not a thing here."

Permalink
...

He proceeds Barward.

"Any book?" he asks.
Permalink

Published books. I cannot get you your neighbor's diary, or books that are from your own future as opposed to a later calendar year in someone else's world.

Permalink
"I can certainly work with that."

He pulls out paper and pen and starts scribbling down a list of titles.

"What're you getting?"
