From the Movies in My Head Dept.
Apr. 15th, 2011 12:29 pmOUR HERO and his LIBRARIAN GIRLFIREND are dodging wildly as the BIG BAD is chasing them with a sword through a basement archives. Then things go really south when they're chased into a corner.
BIG BAD: I have you now!
He raises his sword to strike. OUR HERO grabs the first thing at hand to use as a shield, a very large leatherbound book.
LIBRARIAN: Wait! That's our Gutenberg!
The BIG BAD and HERO both freeze.
HERO: Ha! You won't hit me while I've got this!
BIG BAD (conflicted. He's evil, but it is a Gutenberg Bible): Pick another one, or I'll go after your girlfriend.
HERO: If I put it down, what am I supposed to block you with?
GIRLFRIEND: Here, take this '82 Atlas of the World. It's been weeded.
She tosses him the atlas, he tosses her the Gutenberg. The fight continues...
