Say a guy I know needs a teeny-tiny favor, and would be willin' to do a favor in return.

How's that sound so far?

((Winding down for the night! Will definitely pick up, but as I will be out of town for the rest of the week, be alerted for epic slowness.))

... Well, I don't have to be owed anything, but what kind of help is needed?

[soooo awkwardddd. shoves his hands in his pockets and looks like he's afraid he's going to break something]

[meanwhile, this girl looks like she's right in her element]

Now let's see, the nonfiction is over here, so...

[trailing off, she heads in the direction of some other area]

[follows quietly, like a timid puppy]

Don't I need a library card of some sort...?

[skirtindanger]

-- Hm? Oh, as long as you bring it back, it should be fine.

[nosenolimits]

I can try to remember that.

[skirtindanger]

[nod!] I don't think there's a lot of others here looking to be making jewelry anyway, but it's better to do it anyway.

[nosenolimits]

Guess I wouldn't wanna get into trouble.

How 'bout this one?

[skirtindanger]

[stops short]

-- Oh, right here? I almost walked right past it... Take a look at it and see if you think it helps.

[nosenolimits]

[picking it up gingerly and flipping through it just as cautiously]

I guess so?

[skirtindanger]

... You know, you don't have to be afraid of the book. It's not going to hurt you! ... That is, if it hasn't already tried to bite you yet, then it probably won't.

[nosenolimits]

... [drops it]

That can happen?!

[skirtindanger]

-- Awp!

[CATCHES IT]

... Erm, yeah, some of them do. But I don't think any of them do it hard enough to rip off your finger or anything.

[nosenolimits]

...... maybe you could read it to me.

[skirtindanger]

Hey, I told you it was fine, right?

[holding the book up and flips through some of the pages, as if demonstrating]

See? This one won't do anything to you. There's only some of them around you have to worry about.

[nosenolimits]

[taking it back and giving it a thorough look over]

... 'nd how am I supposed to figure out which ones those are?
