Library; Wednesday [ 11/07 ]

Adah came in a bit early so that she had plenty of time to limp around the library to choose her choice reading materials for the day. By the time things were set for the day, she had set aside an eclectic pile of medical journals and comic books, as well as a carefully balanced tower waiting to be sorted, although perhaps she'd leave that. She felt that the way some of the books jutted out and it curved and threatened to wobble over like trees too tall in the wind, creaking, moaning, dizzying to look up at.

One more nudge to ensure the bag was at a good angle before Adah turned over her hand so that her fingers could brush up against River's and she smiled lightly, glad River approved although she felt that plan lacked a little bit of solidity to it, but she was terribly careless in general dead pet maintenance as a whole, so it wasn't too much of a concern.

"Might solidify with time," River replied, gently tickling Adah's palm with her fingertips. "And one advantage of having dead pets is that maintenance when necessary can be kept to a minimum." With a quick movement, one that she almost regretted immediately for fear it might be too fast, she leaned forward to place a kiss on Adah's cheek.

The kiss on the cheek was sudden and unexpected, but it was certainly was appreciated. Besides, Adah's slow blinking and the placid creeping of a light blush at the surprise made up for River's quickness. Sluggishness balancing out the quicksilver.

Appreciated surprise was a good result and River chuckled against Adah's cheek before pulling back. "Nothing like dancing in a library with you and dead pets," she said.

Adah's grin was almost a laugh; she was glad she could be on the same level as dead pets.

Sharing an understanding of the importance of animal skeletons and their maintenance - even if periodical - made River join in the almost laughter, and she leaned forward again, this time to place a light kiss on Adah's lips. "Shouldn't keep you from your work," she added.

A soft sound, a soft grin, as Adah responded simply by craning her neck to reach River's lips and give her a kiss back, letting it linger. What work? She'd been reading comic books; she was potentially the worst library aide employed at this place, and it didn't bother her a bit.

Not the worst, definitely not the worst. "Making me rediscover my interest in libraries," River whispered, before pressing another kiss against her lips. She had been wary of knowledge and the search for it for a long time, associating it with an innocence of childhood. Of course, when she went to the library in search of Adah, her thoughts were anything but innocent.

An interest in libraries and an interest in those who worked at them were two completely different things, and Adah would not be convinced otherwise unless River planned on leaving here with a armful of books potentially taller than she was.

After another quick kiss, River protested with a grin: "I've read what you recommended me!" And enjoyed it too, she had to admit. Perhaps poetry, or at least fiction, was easier to deal with.

What Adah had recommended so far wasn't nearly enough, she decided, grinning happily and a mite evilly. She'd have to work on a list.

...A very, very long list.

"Emily could voice things," River replied, hoping that whatever Adah recommended would add to their language. "Talking through stories. Then the stories begin to talk."

Adah's head bobbed lopsidedly in a nod of agreement. The Lime had served them well so far, that was true. She'd have to make sure she poured through her resources well to find some equally effective.

"Make a list." It almost sounded like she dared Adah to do it, River thought, but she knew she didn't need to.
