The Magic Box [Tuesday]
Celia came in today with three extra little plastic IKEA screws in her pocket.
She still had no idea where they went, considering she had assembled that bookcase in class perfectly (on the third try.) The directions didn't call for three more screws anywhere, so...clearly they were just extra, right?
Of course, it worried her that it was an odd number. That seemed strange.
In any case, she was spending her day today straightening the magic texts and setting aside the scant few that had held helpful information for her -- given how her abilities worked, she didn't have much call for spells or incantations, but everything reference she'd found on spell-breaking was getting bookmarked. It couldn't hurt.
(She never did figure out where those three screws came from. Hopefully someone else's bookcase wouldn't fall apart because they were missing.)
[open post, no OCD, and I'm getting IKEA furniture-assembly PTSD just thinking about those little plastic pieces. WHY DO YOU SOMETIMES GIVE US EXTRA, IKEA, IT'S JUST CONFUSING.)
