You are in The Central Library… anything can happen here. In fact, the possible can become actuality while you stay here. Things are always changing. Some for the better, some for the worst… it really all depends on one thing. You.
Take a look around, visit the worlds through the book portals, and slowly bring it back to life. The more you do, the better life will get. But be wary, not everything is a fun story and not everything is harmless. Sometimes you will have your life at stake and others you will simply have to enjoy your stay.
You can use RNG to pick a scenario below… or you can pick your own! Whatever delights your fancy and makes you feel at home within the walls of The Central Library.
1 1
1. Arrival – You wake up in the main hall. The reception desk is behind you and you know you heard someone whispering “Save us” in your ear… but where are you? The hall gleams and there are many doors amongst the shelves of books. It is rather huge and a walkway circles a second floor… where are you? Well… you might want to ask.
2. 2. Market Place – The Central Library has turned the large conference room into an open gateway to a market place. It shifts and changes along with the Library, but food is always available to those living there as long as the portal is open. But for the rest….
Did someone count three bricks up and two across, and then tap them three times? Someone in the Library must have stumbled on that combination since the portal has opened up to Diagon Alley. Enjoy your visit to a truly magical shopping destination but remember not to be too obvious if you’re a Muggle!
3. Gotta Catch'em All! In... Space? - Pokemon are wonderful pets and companions used to help around the house or in battling competitions. Their uses are endless! But... it seems they have managed to escape from their world and end up in the most unlikely of places. In space. The Enterprise is over run and the crew is trying really hard to round them up. Not to mention the mass infestation on the Deathstar. But their hosts are not so kind. As guests of the Library, you are armed with a fully detailed Pokedex and multiple pokeballs guaranteed to catch what you aim for. But be careful. Don't get caught yourself!
4. Non-Fiction Immersion – Under the sea… well, not quite. Notice the strange puddles and ponds that ‘decorate’ the Library floors. They’re now habitats for the Library’s new aquatic unwelcome guests. Octopi, alligators, kraken, seals and many other water-loving creatures can be found in and near these water hazards. Watch out for random flying fish; they hurt if they hit you.
5. Fiction Invasion – Sometimes things slip through. Little things or big things. After all, monsters do hide in the dark corners and in some sections of the grand structure. But this time… the problem is small, small size that is. Pixies have invaded. They are troublesome things… they love to cause problems and make life a little miserable. You need to catch them before they steal you blind… and possibly cause you too much mischief. You may need a net… but please, try not to kill them.
6. Cleaning is Necessary – You are stuck here, you might want to make it home. Being in such disrepair, it needs a little love and care. I’m sure the janitor’s closets have some tools… Ones that have a life of their own they are rather testy about where they go and the cleaning supplies have a life of their own. (Think The Sorcerer’s Apprentice and the servants in Beauty and the Beast).
7. A posse ad esse – Anything is possible. This is your Wild Card. Have fun with it!
Sunset Shimmer | Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree
[Considering Sunset's luck, waking up in a giant library that would give Twilight some kind of massive overload of any sort was beyond lucky. This place was AMAZING, with all caps.
Whistling, Sunset moved through the library, eagerly moving to pick up books and stuff for all kinds of reading, before turning to the nearest person and asking,] Is there a reading spot for these?
3. Gotta Catch Em All In Space!
Come back here, Pikachu!
[Okay, this was nothing like Pokemon Go, and yet, Sunset was having a ball. She was running around armed with her Pokeballs as she charged around with a bright, sunny smile on her face.
This was amazing, and she was having so much fun. When told each book was a world, she was blown away. And yet, it made sense. Books were windows to other worlds in her opinion, and being a transplant from another world made it all the better.]
Got you! [Tossing the ball, the Pikachu in a Santa Hat was sucked into it.]

Re: 4
Nope, I'm going to let it out in a moment, but in a place where I won't get yelled at by guys who look like they need more color in their life. They're super cute though. Maybe I can release it in its world but I'm tempted to have a pet...
no subject
[Impish grin.] Sounds familiar actually. [She may or may not have a knack for also getting into trouble, oops.]
no subject
[Sunset grinned a little.] I know what you mean. I get into trouble all the time.
no subject
[But at the last part she just giggles.] You too, huh? [Bites a finger in amusement.] Maybe our... Pokemon did you say? Can help keep us out of trouble. [There's an obvious glint to her eyes and lilt to her voice that says Rose rather doubts it.]
no subject
[Sunset knows the look of a fellow troublemaker and it makes her old tendencies flare, with a wide grin.] It's possible. They're so much smarter than people sometimes.
no subject
[Grins and bounces on her feet.] Well, a lot of species are. Sometimes learning more just means getting more distracted with things that aren't obvious.
[Offers her hand to Sunset so they won't get lost.] Rose Tyler, by the way. We should probably get moving in case those idiot jerks find us on patrol.
no subject
[Sunset had to agree, considering that she was actually a pony.] Gotta agree with that. Considering I want to see my own world in here.
[Taking Rose's hand, Sunset smiled.] Sunset Shimmer. And yeah, lets go. We were told not to run into too many patrols.
no subject
Love the name. It fits.
Yup. Had to do a couple runners already, hopefully they just think I'm a pokemon too.
no subject
[Sunset grinned. People were so accepting of her name, even if a couple looked at her in surprise for her bright colors.]
At least they gave us these weirdly ugly outfits though.
no subject
I s'pose, but the soldiers are kind of... tall. And all identical heights, yanno?
no subject
That's true. They said I'm much too short for a stormtrooper I think they called it. Which is kinda rude since I'm not six feet, only five-nine.
no subject
[Rose bounces on her feet.] Still better'n me. 5'5" with heels. [Wry grin.]
no subject
[Celestia and her incredibly long legs for one.]
no subject
no subject
The adults in my world are pretty tall though. Principal Celestia is almost 7 feet tall.
no subject
7 feet is definitely tall though! My friend's only about six feet tall, a little over, but I still feel short tryin' to get him to dance with me. [Laughs quietly.] So is everyone in your planet also so bright? 'Cuz he always said I look bright yellow and pink but... [She bites her bottom lip, hoping that's not too rude.]
no subject
[Sunset laughed a little at Rose's question and nodded.] Everyone's multicolored in my world. My best friends range between pink to pure white and rainbow colored.
