Okay, people! Apparently the whole idea of a fic prompting writing type thing circle was a success. Now each person ask (some of you have done so already) a question of the person one down from you, and the last one goes back to the top.

We got some of the flatpack bookshelves done, but apparently the boy doesn't trust their stability. Which I think is silly, because they're about as stable as your usual of that kind of bookshelf, which might not be suitable for earthquake territory but once you get the books on them they pretty much stay where you tell them to. Also because maintenance is going to apparently be in and out of here all damn week and I'd really like to get some of this done before they start glaring at us. Idiot maintenance.
