(Erin and Nora are sorting through the their library - a job that has been put off for several months.)
Erin: You know, I bought some of these books a month and a half ago and I still haven't read them.
Nora: I know the feeling. Should the Saiyuki books have their own shelf or do they go with the other manga?
Erin: Try to wedge them in with Peacemaker and Fruits Basket and the others. Is the Lost World still out and about?
Nora: Yeah, Scooter borrowed it - and Beige's aunt wants to borrow a few of the Ladies' Detective Agency books.
Scooter: (entering) Boy, Challenger's a real nutcase. (hands book back) Need help?
Erin: Yeah, we're putting all the mysteries up on the third shelf - if you can go through that box there.
Scooter: Right. (starts sorting through books) Maybe you guys ought to build an addition on to the shelf - it looks like it's starting to teeter a bit.
Erin: I know - one more paperback and the entire left side's going to fall over.
Beige: (entering) Evening, ladies and genglefengs. (brings in large book) My aunt's all done with the 500 More Ludicrous Legends from Fraggle Cave. (parks book rather heavily on shelf, which starts to creak dangerously)
Storyteller: (emerging from hut) I have those manuscripts of old Gorg legends you wanted to look at...
Nora: No, Storyteller, don't put them on that...
(shelf promptly collapses, spilling books all over room)
Nora: ...shelf.
