Library, Sunday

[gavegoodface]

Having recovered from the oh-so-strenuous welcome picnic, Face was hard at work behind the library desk.

If by hard at work you meant looking over his class schedule between watching some of the new holos that he'd 'acquired' through the holonet.

Cassandra parsed his answer thoughtfully. "I... did not think of it that way," she said. Clearly. "I suppose morale and inspiration does have some honor. They are not fields of which I know much."

Face would never have guessed.

Instead of saying as much, he put on his most endearing expression instead. "Well, if you'd like to know more, we also have an extensive fiction section."

Maker, that was endearing. Enough to make her flush just a little bit.

She turned her attention to adjusting her glove. "No, I should return to studying the magic books," she said. "...Though knowing where this fiction is might help expedite my search."

Not one bit.

Face knew exactly how endearing it was, even more so when he added puppy eyes, which he now did.

"They're kept over there," he said, nodding in the relevant direction. "Oh, I'm Face, by the way."

Because introducing yourself at some point was generally a good idea.

If she wound up leaving here with a Young Adult romance novel tucked between the magic books, it would be all your fault, Face.

She gave him a curt nod. "I am Cassandra Pentaghast," she said. "Thank you for your assistance."

This might have been the most polite she'd been all weekend.

Face would take his victories where he could find them. "The pleasure was mine."

Cassandra nodded one more time, and then strode past him, vanishing into the stacks of books.

She came back one last time, some time later, wielding a stack of magical tomes in one hand and a single volume of something else in the other.

She slapped the YA book - something about knights and princesses - down on the desk first. "You will tell no one."

Face didn't actually have a death wish regardless of any impressions otherwise he might give now and in the future.


Also he didn't know the author and couldn't engage in approval related personal quests. "My lips are sealed," he said, one hand over his heart.
