There’s a little book display right at the entrance of the library that Mike set up a few years after he took over as librarian in Derry.
There’s a topic of the week that changes every Thursday and it’s a big hit with the regulars.
Every once in a while Mike gets asked how he comes up with the different topics and he always answers the same thing, that the themes just come to him while working.
In truth, every topic is linked to the Losers.
Sometimes it’s inspired by a memory, like the time Mike put all of the books he could find about canaries on display after he remembered the time Stan had tried to help him get over his fear of birds by taking him to the pet store when they had been 15 years old.
Other times Mike catches an article or news story about one of the Losers that inspires him for the following week, like the fist time he found one of Ben’s projects in a magazine and put together an architecture display.
Over the years there had been weeks about poetry, cars, fashion, comedy, friendship. Family.
After Derry 2.0 there’s one last display before Mike plans to leave Derry with all 6 of his old friends.
The Losers call him silly when they walk in and see the turtles but Mike just laughs.
Looking through your Ao3 bookmarks and seeing that little “This has been deleted, sorry!” is like finding a gravestone, but the writing’s too worn down to read what it was standing for anymore.
What were you, Bookmark #336… What stories did you tell? Which words were it that once left a mark on my soul?
