A Little Patience Its All I Ask

"So?" The shorties had lead us to the door. I say door, but it was more like a gigantic arch scribed into the side of a mountain. It was weird that this huge construction was on a seemingly uninhabited island in the middle of the sea, which also of course lead to the sense of foreboding I felt. Clearly whoever had constructed this, did not want anyone opening it ever.

"So what?" I was reading six different languages, most of them dead, and most of them just insane gibberish, Siara was of course getting bothered by how long it was taking. I tell you people don't understand ancient languages are not exactly written with modern cadence, let alone written to be easily interpreted later. On top of that an object sits for however long it'll aquire a bunch of stupid additions that are written over the important ones (dumb crap like "Bill was here," and "Damn this is a big door" only in ancient languages instead of their modern equivelent). So I was sorting through a lot of garbage and trying to read languages I was using someone elses memories to decipher (don't think about that too hard you'll hurt yourself), which takes time.

"Well open the door."

"Oh that's what I'm trying to do, let me just turn the handle and we'll be in." Sarcasm apparently did not work since Siara seemingly expected me to do just that. "I can't just turn the handle and let us in." I went back to reading, it was rather fascinating stuff (which also slowed me down, because when I'm reading something I like to read I get all involved and forget why I was reading it in the first place, like instead of seeing where one thread about opening goes, I was more interested in why a person wrote an entire paragraph about a farming village from somewhere else, riveting to explain I know).\

"I'm going back to the village to get some torches, I forsee this will be a long evening."

"It's night time?" I hadn't even noticed, but Siara was gone and probably didn't like my question to begin with. Everytime I work with other people I'm reminded why I don't like doing that. Sure you get extra security and saftey, but then you also have to deal with their constant nattering annoyance and complete stupidity while you do all the damn work! Which is something I want someone else to deal with that isn't me!
