First Firefly - [Action]

[presumablyalone]

[Seto's eyes are slightly dead as he stumbles into the Golden Entranceway, falling to his knees and his head down.  He clutches the black feather thats in his hand as he lets out a weak cry.  Not from pain, but from sorrow.  He rubs his eyes with his wrist and looks up]

....Where...am I?  ....Sai?  [He sniffles and stands up, obviously shivering.

[Ruca timidly walks up to the crying boy.]

...A-are you okay?

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

So you like reading books too? [He smiles.] Well then, follow me.

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

Uh huh! Though I didn't get to read much since a lot of the books my grandfather kept were too hard for me to understand.

[He nods and does so]

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

Oh, I see. [He smiles.] The library here is really big, so I'm sure you’ll find something for yourself. But if you'll have some troubles you can always ask me and I'll see what I can do.

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

Okay! I'll be sure to ask you then if I need help. [He smiles too] What do you like to read?

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

[He's smiles grows bigger.]

Pretty much everything what's interesting enough it read.

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

You're like my grandfather. [He chuckles] Have you ever read 'Pirate Isle'? I'm not sure if it would be here since it was from my world though...

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

Am I really? [He chuckles too.]

"Pirate Isle"? [thinking] No, I don't think I did. But, if it's a book from your world it might actually be somewhere in Splendor's library.

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

Uh huh. He loved to read all sorts of books.

The books from our worlds show up here too? [He blinks] Oh right! I brought a few of my own too. They're in my fish tin.

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

That really does sound a bit like me.

Yes. [He looks curious now.] You did? Um, in your... fish tin?

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

Uh huh!

I wonder if that means my grandfather's books were brought here too...though they're difficult to understand sometimes. [He nods and opens the fish tin to pull out a worn out and old book] See?

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

Well, we can always go to the library and see. And even if they're not there you can probably wish to bring them here if you want. [He smiles.] ...I wonder if they really are so difficult.

[He looks curiously at the book.] It looks really old...

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

Okay! [He smiles and thinks for a moment] I always thought they were difficult because he liked reading things about science so I never understood them.

[He dusts it off then hands it to Ruca] Well in my world it probably was pretty old. I found it in some rubble.

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

Was he some kind of scientist?

[Ruca nods and takes the book.] I see...

[Action]

[presumablyalone]

I'm not sure to be honest. My memories only go back so far so I don't remember anything about his job. [He rubs the back of his head a little]

I only read a little, but it has something to do with bells and a cat.

[Action]

[demonicbookworm]

...Bells and a cat?

[But since they walked for some time now, the library came into a view.]

Oh. It's the library. [He says, gesturing towards the building.]
