Zavien
Never regret anything that made you smile
Refusing to let Lena carry the growing stack of books on her own, Zavien snagged them from her arms with a teasing grin. "You'll be able to carry more if I hold these, although keep in mind that we still have to get them home." If they ever made it home. He got the sense it'd be easy to lose her in the rows of shelves, and he wondered if it was normal to be jealous of dusty tomes.
Zavien followed her through the sections, his eyes wandering more to the people and the grand architecture than the words swimming across spines and faded signs. His eyes only turned down again to hear Lena's voice somewhere around the corner, realizing he'd already gotten separated from her in his own distraction. When he rounded the shelf, he found more books that didn't look all that different to him, although he did spot the words 'war' and 'weapons' on a few of the titles.
His eyes perused, picking the first one that caught his eye: a dark green spine with the golden words Magical Weapons. Flipping open the pages, he saw images of various weapons along with big, bold headers that told of offensive, defensive, and miscellaneous features. He nodded his head, humming in approval. "Hmm. This one might come in handy." And he might actually be able to understand the print of the text.
Without another thought or obvious intention to find another book, Zavien smiled at Lena and stacked Magical Weapons onto the pile of books in his arms. "Were there any other topics you wanted to look at?"
