Aranel had brought in her own small desk and set it up near Alila's room. She was now starting the long task of filing and reorganising.
"I'm surprised you didn't get help sooner, Alila." she said, putting a wobbling pile of paperwork to the side of her chair. "This is absolutely appalling. Not saying that's your fault!" she added hurriedly.
"Nell, relax." Abe said, bringing over another stack of in-out logs. "I'm sure she gets it."
"Oh no. There's more? If I get carpal tunnel I'm going to sue." Aranel said, joking.
"And face undead lawyers?"
"Good point. By the way, anything else you need me to do, Alila?"

" No Aranel, just the In and out logs from you, ill handle the Checked in list", Alila said as she pulled out a stack of papers that dwarfed both the stacks she had put together, " But Abe could you go to the Necromancy Section, oh and bring some steak the books could use a good feeding, and probably a reorganizing, they do tend to shuffle, Be sure to mind your fingers too", She then said as she began reading through the checked in log at blistering speed.

Abe nodded. He went out back for a while then came back with a pile of raw steaks in his arms, and one in his mouth. He trotted off with it to the hungry books.
"Anyways, I think this could take a while to get in anything resembling order. About two weeks, but if I take some home with me every night then it'll get done in about ten, twelve days." Aranel said, making her way through the Out logs.

Alila finished reading rather quickly," Sorry dear but i have a strict take no work home policy, Also why would you want to, You do live with Abe, and Death knows you like they guy", She said leaning back a little and stretching.

Aranel went red "Look, it's... It's really not like that. He's my best friend, and it'd just be awkward for our friends and there's a lot of societal things.... It's a conflict of interest. Judges can't do that, and certainly not Watchers.

Alila laughed maliciously," What society, your the only ones here, there is no rule saying you and abe can't be together whilst your hear, and beyond that dear, I've read talon's thesis on the inter dimensional links to this one, they are one way almost 99% of the time, so even if He was to use all his power to try to send ya back you'd just get a lot of fizzle and nothing really getting done.", She said in a happy yet dark tone.

"But... But we have to get home. We can't stay here forever." Aranel said, her voice shaking. "Our families, everyone... We can't just..." She started to cry.

Alila went over and hugged the girl, she began stroking her hair offhandedly," It's okay, there is still the chance you can get home, And if not, well life here isn't so bad is it?, you have a nice home, a good place to live, a fairly nice job, and beyond that your free to be with someone you love that you couldn't be with there, and if you do go back, well its not like anyone from here will tell on ya for it now will we?" She said in a soothing tone as she nuzzled her head against Aranel's.

"But what about my dad? And Abe's got his family. He has to help Rakesha take care of his little brothers and sister, I mean, there's six of them. And Jakyl and Ivine..." Aranel burst into tears proper. Her shoulders shook. and her sleeve was soon wet with tears.
"I... I am grateful though. If there's any place to be stranded I'm glad it was here." she mumbled, hugging Alila.

Alila smiled," Well then , as your boss, i think I'm your boss at least, I order you to go out to lunch with Abe have a proper date and for Deaths sake tell the guy you two are on a date, Cause if you don't ill have to take him out myself dear", She then said in a happy tone as she hugged the girl a little tighter and lifted her to her feet.

"If you did that I'd chase you wih a newspaper, Alila." Aranel sniffled, trying to smile. "Or a relaly big can of bugspray."
Abe came back. "Aw, I missed the hugs?" he said, mock sad.

"Godammit, again? I thought her and Nix were the last ones I was gonna miss."
Aranel laughed a little,standing up and punching his shoulder.
"What? Hey, have you been crying?" he said, putting an arm around her.
"I'll tell you later. We have to go."
"Go where? "
"On a date, otherwise I have to chase Alila around the library with a newspaper and she's got more legs than me."

Alila smiled and watched the two leave, after she was sure they where gone she started sniffling a little,.... She wasn't happy crying though, she just wished someone would be right for her the way those two where for each other. She broke down into sobs rather soon, and thus went back to bed, trying to make her self calmer.
