[nothingventured]

Ow, ow... this is just not my day.

[intellectum]

[unsure if I can move]

[nothingventured]

[well I sure can. getting off him.]

You should watch where you're going, you know.

[intellectum]

[pushing his glasses up, getting up]

My apologies.

[nothingventured]

Oh, it's fine. It's just the second time today I've ended up on the floor.

[intellectum]

Oh, you're new then.

[nothingventured]

You can tell just from how many times I've fallen over?

[intellectum]

Most people fall over when they come here.

[nothingventured]

Did you?

[intellectum]

I believe so.

[nothingventured]

Maybe they really do need pillows.

[intellectum]

Most likely.

[nothingventured]

You could use one. For when you bang into people.

[intellectum]

I said sorry.

[nothingventured]

And I said it's fine.

[intellectum]

... All right. Thank you.

[nothingventured]

It must be a really good book.

[intellectum]

I'm enjoying it.

[nothingventured]

[straight-up trying to peer in and read it in your hands.]

[intellectum]

[it's untitled, but it has Heron's signature]

[nothingventured]

...well, it looks special.

[intellectum]

It is.

[nothingventured]

I don't suppose there's anything in there about this place?

[intellectum]

I'm afraid not. Becca has the books on those.

[nothingventured]

Becca?
