[Video Post 1] It would be so nice if something made sense for a change

[Despite the Head Librarian's warnings, Steve had been exploring alone. Not the wisest decision but he didn't want anyone to get hurt while he was trying to get a general idea of the layout of the Library. As he moves deeper into the Fiction area, he notices something that seems a little strange. Telling himself that it's just trick of the light, he continues to move deeper into the stacks. Then the strange motion resolved itself into... Okay, that was weird even by 'aliens' and 'killer robot' standards.

Sliding his bookmark out of his pocket, he sets it to broadcast.]

Does anyone know if there's any wildlife that's native to the Library? I keep seeing weird insects.

[Something strange swoops by and Steve blinks in surprise.]

Or birds? It looked like a bird.

[Kind of.]

And there's a garden somewhere in the stacks.

Not that I know but I only wish that no one underestimates them.

The best way is beheading them but they will die in the same manner Men do. They are not difficult creatures to kill but they come in great numbers with only a single purpose.

I was hoping that they couldn't actually talk but it sounds possible in a place like this.

[Pausing, Steve gives Glorfindel a wry smile.]

Having things trying to kill me is something I'm used to. I never was able to run away when people thought I should. From the sounds of it, I'm going to need more than just my shield to deal with the things from your reality.

You and me both, I have never been able to run away. [And he's paid dearly for that but he has no regrets.]

I believe you should be fine then. I am planning on doing patrols as much as possible but let me know if you or anyone else needs assistance, anytime. Day or night.

[Really, he doesn't sleep, it gives him lots of idle time.]

If you don't mind teaching someone that doesn't know about the kinds of monsters that are in your world, I'd like to learn. I get the feeling I'm going to need a crash course in how to deal with things like trolls.

[It still sounded like something out of those fantasy novels that one of the SHIELD agents had given him.]

If you need help on those patrols or if you run into something you need some help with, let me know.

I would be happy to teach you what I know. Perhaps we could get together and exchange information on our worlds?

Thank you, I will do that!

That'd be a good idea. We may want to have others in on the discussion. There's probably others here who haven't dealt with trolls or -

[He almost says aliens but in a world that has trolls what counted as an alien?]

Other things that we'd thought were in stories.

And I am sure there are many things from other worlds I haven't encountered before. The more prepared all of us are, the better. I am not sure what the Library will expect us to deal with to protect the collection here.
