Who: John and Badri
What: Library shenanigans. Libnanigans.
When: NOW
Where: A library, where else
Warnings: DOUBTFUL
Libraries are, as everyone knows, supposed to be silent places. Places of quiet introspection. Places to leave the turmoil of the real world and escape into a book.
That's not the case in this particular library today. One of the visitors seems to be making an awful racket - an assortment of noises coming from the children's section are echoing throughout the building. Giggles, gasps, the occasional anxious noise... And then:
"SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE?"
The voice should be familiar to anyone with even the slightest familiarity with Locke's aliens, since it belongs to resident oddball Badri Barkley. He's sitting alone amidst a pile of Harry Potter books and empty Happy Meal boxes, and looks rather like he's about to explode from the shock of this particular plot revelation.
Someone should. Probably prevent that.
Probably.

Yes, he is a little flatulent, perhaps. But libraries are important to him. It's serious business.
no subject
He cuts himself off as if he's said too much, and his facial expression is simply thoughtful as he gazes down at his Happy Meal before holding it out towards John.
"Err. McNugget?"
no subject
"No, thank you," he said, holding up a hand, and then went to grab one of the books from the pile. "I'm not a big fan of McNuggets." Pause. "You know, that makes it seem as though you're trying to bribe me."
His tone was light. Joking.
no subject
Badri bursts into a fit of giggles entirely disproportionate to the level of humour present here. After a few seconds of breathless handflapping, he tosses a McNugget into the air and catches it in his mouth.
"Do not worry about that, friend! I am not the bribing type! It is not really in our nature. Me or Geoffles or Merry or any of the others." He pauses to swallow his mouthful of food, picking at his teeth reflectively. "We usually get what we want without having to resort to those things. High five!"
And yes, he totters towards John and holds out a slightly-greasy salty hand for high fiving purposes. Yeah.
no subject
He cocks an eyebrow. "What exactly am I high fiving, here?"
