#archival assistant riaan?
Text
i just got a letter – yes, a handwritten letter – telling me i'm being transferred to the archives tomorrow. from elias.
bouchard couldve emailed me, but noo, he wanted to be over the bloody top.
he said it was "following the unforseen and sudden departure of one of the previous archival assistants, tim stoker". unforseen? yeah, right.
i'm going to fucking kill this man if i ever see him.

riaan walks into the library, two takeaway cups of tea in his hands. he spends a while wandering around looking for amelie before finally finding them in one of the more well-lit reading areas. the area looks as if it has just been thoroughly dusted.
"hey, i brought you tea. figured you might need it... my gut said something was going on up here in the library, and now it surely seems so. i dont know when last this place was this clean," he says, looking around at the near spotless room.
"how have you been lately?"
- @archivalassistantriaan
When Riian spots Amelie,they appear to be reading, looking rather normal.But upon closer inspection it's obvious how wrong their appearance is- they're much taller and lankier, arms much,much longer. Looking at them hurts, it's like looking at a strong fluorescent light. The edges of their form are fuzzy and distorted in color.

They greet him, voice doubled and overlapping, with an undertone of strange static.

riaan approaches the door that shouldnt be there very slowly... aand knocks. he knows he might regret it, but he has to ask.
eris? are you there?
- @archivalassistantriaan
The knocking sounds strangely hollow and slightly delayed. A moment of eerie silence passes… before the door creaks open, revealing Eris.

It smiles with rows upon rows of teeth, standing expectantly in the doorway. It’s unclear if it expected this visit, but it has a strange, knowing look in its piercing stare.

A door is on the wall. It’s visibly worn, covered in sporadic paint splatters.
You do not remember this door. Was it always here?
A distorted laugh echoes from somewhere just past it.
@3ris-d1st0rtionnn
i'm sure that door wasn't there when i was in here yesterday...
i'm not going to open it. i've been at this institute long enough to know you shouldn't open strange doors.
bloody hell, second day in the archives and i see this?

Hey... H𖦹w have y𖦹u been feeling lately¿? Especially during the days up t𖦹 the Eclipse... I think it's messing with the Eye , it's been feeling... Hazy f𖦹r me
hey. i've been feeling quite fatigued lately, but im not sure if that is because of the eclipse or not.
there was a bit of a development though, with the whole eye thing. i... i dont know, maybe its nothing, but reading people has become a lot easier. ive always been good at it, but now its almost like i can take one look at somebody and know what their insecurities are.
how have you been, though? its easier to... i dont know, look at you? its not as difficult to make out some of your features when i look at your face. are you okay? its almost as if your spirals are... less. no, not less. just less confusing

Riaan notices that there is a small blue box tied shut with opalescent ribbons on his desk. He's uncertain on how long it's been there, but it's there nonetheless. It has a tag on it with his full name on it in the 'To:' line.
riaan approaches his desk with caution, and inspects the box slowly.
"i wonder who this is from..."
nothing happens when he unties the ribbons, and decides to chance opening the box itself. inside, was something he didnt expect...

Amelie sneaks up to Riian's desk and places several neon worms on strings.
well, this sure is something. i might need to pay a visit to my favourite librarian a bit later :)

hey everybody. guess i should do an intro...
i'm riaan (he/him). i'm 26 years old, and i've been working at the magnus institute as a researcher for a bit over a year now, but have recently been transferred to the archives after the death of one of the archival assistants.
don't let my bosses know i'm on here, please. i don't plan on running into elias any more than i need to.
((ooc: hey people!! this blog is run by @not-a-vampirepoet . lets see what shit i get up to here))
