Library [10/05]

Rory bustled into the library a bit sleepily, and took her place behind the desk with her massive cup of coffee and her reading for Literature for the week.

Walter wandered in and went to look up this mysterious thing Nadia had not particularly clearly told him about the night before.

Anyone paying any attention when he found an appropriate reference book might wonder why he acted like he was doing something... prurient.

"Hi Walter. Find everything okay?" Rory asked, not quite looking up from her notes.

Walter glanced up guiltily from the book and turned his body to better block her view of what he was looking at.

"I have, thank you."

"Okie, just shout - well, figuratively, library, you know - if you need anything," Rory said, going back to her work in earnest.

She'd learned awhile ago that when people were acting like Walter was, it was really just better not to ask what they were looking at.

"Thank you."

Walter went back to his reading. Given he'd started with something more along the lines of a medical textbook after looking up the more technical sounding term Nadia had given him, his impression was a somewhat confused one. What was "Not Talked About" in his time was apparently considered to be normal and healthy and not a cause for any sort of alarm in this one.

Then again, so was homosexuality in his time, and with that as a comparison and reference, he decided he'd have to go the caffeine, chocolate, painkiller, and support for insanity route Nadia had suggested the night before.

Which meant a quick trip into town for more chocolate.

He snapped the book closed and put it away.

"Thanks Rory."
