Welome to the Intergalatic Library of All Information!
This is the library where you can find anything you want, and know everything! I am the Librarian of the Intergalatic Library of All Information, more commonly known as simply, the Library.
This library has exactly 9713 floors, including an attic with antiques in it. Very rare antiques, I might add, so do be careful with them. There are obviously elevators, but they are at risk of collapsing, as they are very seldom used. I prefer the stairs. If the cables break, I'm sorry, but it's most certainly not my fault!
Oh, and be sure to avoid the 13th floor, as there are many dangers there, and the Exit, a door that leads to outer space, where the is no oxygen. I'm sure you humans need oxygen? Provided in the library, of course. Just don't go outside.
And for the books! There are grand bookshelves that spiral up and up beyond anyone's sight. Wonderful... wonderful. Plenty of books to read at your pleasure, plenty, plenty. Use proper language here, though. Improper grammer and the such will result in you being kicked out the Exit.
There are fictional books, as well as nonfiction. The floors 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, and 139 are dedicated to Encyclopedias and Dictionarys of all languages. Books in foreign languages will be found on floors 398, 399, 400, 401, 402, 403, 405, 406, and 407. And books in glass cases are not to be touched, for they are very fragile and might crumble to ashes on contact.
I will be behind the front desk whenever you need me, or organizing books on whichever floor I find most suitable. When you read, you can sit on the floor, on our provided armchairs, regular wooden chairs, or on hammocks. There are 3 hammocks on every third floor. Don't fight over them, or you will be severly punished. There are things worse than the Exit, you know. You can read about them in books with red, gold, and black covers. I advise you not to, as they can give you vivid nightmares for years to come.
~~~
So, as you see, this is a ski lodge that I hope will NOT die. This is my first ski lodge, so it may be different than others you have been in. Because the library has many fragile things in it, not too many people will be allowed here. Only 5 CBers and their Æs. Not those dreadful CAPTCHAs! Oh, no! Their language will most certainly NOT be tolerated here!
If more than five decide to come, I will chose some of the others to come, I guess. Don't pack much, because most of it will be thrown out the Exit and drift away, anyways. So! Come and enjoy the Intergalatic Library of All Information!

(August 24, 2016 - 4:49 pm)
Yeah....? Did you not know that?
(August 25, 2016 - 10:51 am)
I was the one who asked "HAB is a boy?"
She is? I mean, he is? Wow. I didn't know that. I thought Gared and Jarvis were the only guys on here. Any other guys out there?
(August 25, 2016 - 1:54 pm)
Jarvis is a girl as well.
(August 26, 2016 - 10:47 am)
Jarvis is a girl?! Oh my! Is the world coming to an end?
(August 26, 2016 - 1:09 pm)
Silvery is female :)
(August 24, 2016 - 9:57 pm)
Hellooo! Yes, I'm a boy, and so is Spyro. I can't wait for this to start!

Day 1
A spaceship was speeding toward a giangantic building known as the Intergalatic Library of All Information. Owlgirl had her face pressed against the window, "Wow! Look, guys, we're here!"
The spaceship flew into the building and disappeared into thin air, leaving everyone standing on the first level of the building. For a while, everyone was silent, then Torstyn walked over to the front desk, where a woman was sitting, "Hey. Are there books on how to get a girlfriend?"
The Librarian ignored him, instead turning to the crowd of CBers staring at her, "Welcome! I'm sure you have all heard of the Library, but be sure to avoid floor thirteen. The Exit is something you do not want to go into. And yes, you can learn how to get a girlfriend here. Floor 882. Everything is here!" Then she disappeared into a puff of smoke, and the CBers scattered.
Shadow Dragon flew up to floor 679, leaving the others who could not fly eyeing the stairs warily, "Are we supposed to climb up there?" Puck moaned.
"I guess," Mellie shrugged and walked up the stairs, settling down on the second floor, "It's not too bad."
"Easy to say for you. You're only going to the second floor," Torstyn said, "I have to get up to floor 882 to find my book! Are there any elevators here?" But he was already starting up the stairs.
Bolton, not wanting to climb, decided to explore the first floor. He walked around a corner, and around another, and another, and another, until he came to two wooden elevators. He smiled and pressed the up button. The elevator doors of the left elevator creaked open, revealing Athena and Ice Cream Queen already inside, sitting there reading a book about lollipops.
"Hello, Bolton. Want a lollipop?" Athena reached inside the book and magically produced a grape flavored lollipop.
Bolton nodded and popped it into his mouth, "How did you get this?"
"Floor 97, 98, 99, and 100. Books that can produce stuff," Ice Cream Queen said.
Bolton nodded, and pressed to button for floor 99. The elevator lurched up, then something malfunctioned and it began free falling down. Athena screamed. Bolton choked on his lollipop and his face turned purple. Then the elevator began to work again, going up. The doors opened, and apparently it was a malfunctioning day, so the lights on that floor, floor 87, flickered off. A shadowy figure reached inside the elevator and stuffed another lollipop into Bolton's mouth, choking him even more. He fell to the ground, unable to breathe.
A minute later, the lights turned on again, and the shadowy figure was gone. Bolton was on the ground, choked to death. Two lollipop sticks stuck out of his mouth.
Just then, Brookeira saw him and gasped, "Oh, no!" The elevator was going up again, so she didn't see Ice Cream Queen or Athena.
She went over and examined him. He was dead. Just then, the Librarian appeared in another puff of smokey smoke, and took him to floor thirteen, where he was promptly thrown out the Exit. Daisy and Beth were walking up the stairs, and saw him.
"BOLTON!" Daisy shrieked, "What happened?" The Librarian just shrugged, "He died."
Beth began to cry softly. The Librarian disappeared again.
Meanwhile, HAB was reading a very fascinating book about hot air balloons. It was the first in a series of books. The hot air balloon was called Ruddy, and he was red, "How interesting!"
Spyro saw him and rolled his eyes, a book in his hand, "Hot air balloons are nowhere as interesting as my book!" He waved the blue book around.
"How dare you say that?" HAB cried, lunging at him. Spyro ducked, and tackled HAB. Just then, the Librarian appeared again, "Now, now. No fighting! Don't want to get kicked out the exit, do we?" Then she disappeared.
HAB growled at Spyro and stalked off, pouting, with his book. Spyro rolled his eyes again and walked up to floor 91, where he found Kate-the-Great and Diovald searching the shelves, "Hi."
They didn't answer. Kate-the-Great found a good book and raced to the nearest open hammock, causing Diovald to cry out in protest, as it was the last open hammock on that floor or the floors above and below. Kate-the-Great smiled and started reading about a girl named Diane who liked horses.
~~~
Ariel was on floor 550, observing an antique cookbook that was off limits. It was open to page 21, where Ariel was learning how to make chocolate blueberry muffins dipped in apple coconut cream. Arwen saw the cookbook and made a gagging noise, "Ew! Apple coconut cream? Ariel, you are disgusting!"
Ariel stuck his tongue out at her, and she walked away, an apple in hand from her apple producing book. Ariel frowned. He could use some apples and coconuts, not to mention chocolate and blueberries and an oven! He rode the elevator down to floor 100, where Athena was still eating lollipops with a terrible toothache.
He reached for an oven producing book and took two ovens, before getting the other necissary materials. The smell attracted Leafpool and Jarnen, who were book talking, "What's that smell?" Leafpool asked.
"Smells like a blueberry muffin!" Jarnen replied, "Mixed with chocolate."
"Wait. Is that Granny's famous apple coconut cream? Yummy!" Leafpool cried, rushing toward a very proud Ariel.
"Apple coconut? A strange mix," Jarnen commented, walked toward Ariel.
They had a grand feast of muffins and cream.

Ellak smiled at his success. He had finally made an origami crane, learning from an origami book on floor 821. He made many more, then took his treasures to show off. The first person he met was Silvery Ink, and he gave her a red crane, "Isn't it wonderful? I just learned! The books are on floor 821, if you were wondering. I also made some pinwheels. Don't you just love them?"
Silvery Ink smiled, "They are very wonderful. Thank you for this red one!"
Ellak nodded and went on to find Owlgirl, who was alreayd 3/4 done with a book about a witch who had cast a spell on a poor, innocent girl named Ellen.
"Owlgirl! Would you like one of my cranes? A yellow one would suit you perfectly!"
Owlgirl nodded absently, "Sure. If only Ellen had someone! Poor girl... cursed... oh, the poor girl!" She took the crane and ignored Ellak. Ellak, feeling he had not gotten enough admiration, frowned and moved on to someone else.

C-cool! But Bolton's dead already? Yikes. *shivers*
(August 27, 2016 - 1:18 pm)
That was awesome! Bolton was the first too die... Serves him right. Grape lollipops are disgusting. Beth's crying. Lesson learned, AE's. Never eat lollipops while in a library. Isn't there a no food rule?
(August 27, 2016 - 7:41 pm)
No, there is no no-food rule, but if the books are ever stained with food, you will be thrown out the Exit. Immediately.
(August 28, 2016 - 10:16 am)
A shadowy figure? My, l wonder whom that could ever be hinting too....
Ahahaha! A red crane! You know what red's also the color of? BLOOD!!
(August 27, 2016 - 9:27 pm)
NOOO!!!! WAIT! CAN I STILL JOIN?! Feisty will be good, (and talk to PSXtreme *wink wink*) and all I ask is that I can bring him and hot chocolate. I promise not to spill. Anything to add, Feisty?
... I'll smuggle something unallowed in.
Feisty!
Sheesh! I'm just kidding! *whispers* Maybe.
Hrmph.

Rise to the top, grand Library. Your Librarian is too busy to manage her customers for now, but she will tell their stories later. Coconut, you may join, although you will need your own spaceship. I believe you have one?
