"Oops, I'm so sorry...Genevieve," she said with an apologetic smile and gave her a handshake. "Regina...or just Reg...or Gina. Whichever you prefer." Genevieve was the right way to address her, yes? Or should she call her YATI Genevieve? No, that would be awkward. Uhm, Miss Branxton? Too formal.

Aish! Regina, please settle with Genevieve. There's nothing wrong with that. Now go make yourself useful and stop thinking about petty things.

She turned back and said,"If you're afraid of anything that goes bump in the night. Don't come down here." as she lowered herself, lean and lithe down unto her haunches. Taking out her wand she muttered,"Lumos."

Taking a quick look around, she could still see where Dorian had fallen. She stood up and looked down at the hole. Raising her voice a bit, she said,"Anybody else coming?"

He was curious as to what was written on the letter Simon mentioned, but a man spoke and that caught Kennedy's attention. His eyes wandered around the shop looking for the book with the red spine.

Turning to see newcomers, Kennedy sent them an acknowledging nod. Things seem to speed up from there. He was on everyone's toes, especially on the woman (Dacs) who seemed to be running the show. After she went down the hole, Kennedy slipped some gloves on and turned to Simon. "What do you think?" His eyebrows lifted toward the hole, signaling if they should go in as well. Besides the boss, Simon was becoming a sort of a leader role to Kennedy. Someone he could go to if he had questions.

She did however make up his mind about going down into the hole to investigate further. So with Genevieve attentive to the books helping Saul and the other woman, he looked back at Kennedy who was looking to him for guidance.

"We go down..." he mused, reaching into his pocket for his own pair of gloves. The older YATI slipping them on before taking up his wand. Then with a flick and a "Lumos," Simon lit his wand and moved closer to the edge before heading down. The former captain managing to land with at least some former grace.

Eep. "I'm sorry." Ohh, gloves. Right, right. Almost forgot that. Oh you, it's the basics, how could she have forgotten. Quickly, she grabbed the pair of gloves from her bag, putting aside her pen and logbook on the floor for a while. Nope, she sure was not coming. Inventory had to be done.

As she put on her gloves on each hand, Regina gave a small smile at a young man in the room (Kennedy) who she assumed was one of the YATIs probably.

Moving on...

Okay, check for hidden spells. Hidden spells, hidden spells. Erm. None for this row of books in the leftmost bookshelf. She took out the first book from the top row carefully. Carefully, because Reg was truly in love with books. She couldn't take, however, that these ones were in poor condition. Dusty, but not torn apart. They've been sitting on these shelves for too long. Needs immediate cleaning with some cloth. But now's really not the time to worry about that either, Reg. Inventory, remember?

While she was at it, Regina watched as some of the MLErs were getting down to business as they lit their wands and emerged down into that disturbing hole on the floor. It made her curious, but she'll have to wait until later to find out what on Merlin's beard is going on down there. Now, focus.

One by one she checked out each book, categorized them, organized into groups, and wrote them down on the logbook. It was a relief, however, that the books were already arranged alphabetically. The process went on of checking for spells, identifying the author, title, publisher, and category, and writing them all down.

No greetings for them here, instead he gave a dissatisfied sigh at the large hole in the shop. "I hope this hole is the worst you've done to my poor client's shop." He let off a yawn, and turned his attention to the three who were sticking their fingers and poking their wands around the place.

Her head however looked up as another one joined them again. She wasn't so sure if he was from MLE as well. In fact, Regina wasn't sure if everyone present in that shop was from MLE, but oh well. That didn't matter as long as everyone had their job to finish.

"Uhm, yes sir!" She had been very very very extra careful not to do any damage to the books. They weren't hers to toy with. Besides, even if they were hers, Regina wouldn't let them be destroyed at all. "I'm handling them with the best care I can manage." Like super duper ultra mega to the highest maximum level of care. If it were a game she'd be Level 10000000x10^1000000. Speaking of which, he was a creepy man.

Poor client's shop...

So he wasn't her co-worker? The little lady couldn't help but frown at his statements. They were simply awful and inconsiderate. But he could have a reason behind those mean words. It wasn't her business anyway. She continued to inventory the books.

'Let's see here, what was next again? Oh yes. A Spelunker's Guide to Dungeoneering. Check!'

Casting a quick apologetic look at Aubrie, she levitated herself back up, making a fairly graceful reappearance. Emily managed to get off a few nods of acknowledgement and an approving grunt or two. Her YATI flock were pretty alright, and the Genevieve chick had spunk. Emily liked spunk. "Sabel and I conducted a thorough search of them the first time round.. it was interesting enough, but we didn't find anything useful." The girl was free to peruse them at her leisure, perhaps there was something to find that they didn't consider earlier.

And then De Talone's representative turned up... great.

"Can we help you?" .. to stop interfering and get out of the way?

Regina looked up. Ohh, yippee. Help is on the way. "Erm," she began while playing with her pen. Sigh, who knew doing inventory was too much of a job? It probably wouldn't be if there had been less books around. But who was she to complain? "Can you help inventory those books over by that shelf?" She asked with an enthusiastic smile as she pointed to the bookshelf on her right.
