a little more than i wanted
— to be loved
The librarian is asleep, which only proves a bit more difficult for Kiada. She hasn’t spent enough time here in Halo to figure out the rounds in the Library, hadn’t needed to look up anything here. The only other time she’d spent a decent amount of time here had been when she was here last Deepfrost – helping the Grounders, ensuring their safety when they fled the Grounds. She supposes now that it’s become her home instead of the Grounds, she might as well try it out.
And of course, she chooses to slip away while Chulane sleeps – a note left for him so he wouldn’t panic if he woke, to know that she would be right back once she found what she sought.
But it’s dark and quiet in the library and she has no idea where to start, especially with the man at the front asleep. So she dives down the paths, searching and searching, coming up with nothing, until she spies a torch in the next couple of rows over. For a moment, she wonders if it’s another librarian, and her steps take her quickly over toward the light.
Only to find someone rummaging through a bag, appearing to do research, something of which she’s interrupted. A slight grimace crosses her face, sucking in a breath that’s entirely unnecessary. “Sorry if I interrupted your…” She gestures to the papers strewn about, the books, without entirely glancing at them at first. “Work.” A fanged grimace crosses her face at her lack of tact.
Perhaps she’s just gone too long talking to people she doesn’t know.
