ITP: Astrology for Dummies
Who: Arturia and Atsuro
Where: Aquila Library; Aquarius Ward
Summary: Arturia and Atsuro hit the books to find out more about astrology and the history of Hinoto-Ri.
Warnings: Too many books?
Arturia stood outside the Aquila Library, waiting for Atsuro. The day was young and the pair had a lot of research to do. True, she'd heard the girls at school back home speak of astrology quite often, but with it looking like the star signs held some significance here, there had to be some merit to it, right? Why would their star signs be on their ID cards if there wasn't some kind of basis for it? Or the wards being named for the Star Signs? Or any number of things.
Not to mention the history of the city itself. True, it might not give them much information on the actual situation, but having an idea about the city and possibly the state the world was in before it became cut off might help in some way. If nothing else they might find out which star signs might become affected if another beast like the one her Uncle had spoken of arose again.
She waved when she spotted Atsuro's hat in the crowd passing her by. Good. She'd been worried he'd decide looking this up would be a waste of time and not show. Now they can begin conducting their research.
(ooc: If you'd prefer action spam, just post with action spam and I'll follow along. o7)

"There must be more to it than just a physical barrier - think about the 13th Hour. The demons and monsters just... pop up out of nowhere; there wouldn't be any way to prevent them from popping into the city even if we did have a big glass dome surrounding us."

"As for the 13th Hour, it's possible it's a point in time the barrier is weaker? We'll have to return another day to research it more in depth. Possibly ask a few residents who would know about the dome's construction and how it relates to the 13th Hour. For all we know it's simply collapsing on some mystical level during that time."
Which needs some mod input at a later date.She pulled over a book on the zodiac. They still had some time before the library closed and as much as her hand was cramping, it couldn't hurt to look up what the original purpose was. Besides, it just occurred to her to double check:
"Yes, Aquarius is January twentieth through the eighteenth of February."

"...You know, I actually think the symbol of Aquarius is a goldfish. A very small, easily stepped-on goldfish." Atsuro is too bushed to be more amusing beyond this cursory attempt, though he leans forward as she pulls open the astrology book.
"Right. ...Can you take a look in that book and see if it has anything about compatibility? For Scorpios, especially."
