JOSH
Josh didn't expect Loren to continue with his offer, not after he was clearly surprised by the list; when he was asked to sit down he paused for a beat of silence, watching Loren carefully. Could there be any ulterior motive here? He wasn't used to helpfulness after many years of being an outcast, having to provide for himself and only himself; he found himself inherently suspicious.
Yet he couldn't pass up the chance to learn more on all the topics he'd collected so far. Sitting down, he took a deep breath before placing a finger on the top item of his list, starting to read as he slid his finger down to keep his place. "I need to know more about...The Gods. What proof is there that they are real beyond personal accounts? Why does there only appear to be one religion accepted despite the huge numbers of people here from different worlds? The Ascended. What is the chemical composition of their 'fluid'? The Outlanders. Has there been any kind of research into the worlds they come from? Any correlation between them?"
There were clearly more questions on the paper, but Josh stopped there, giving Loren a chance to answer. His eyes stared intensely at the librarian with hardly any blinks, his body eerily still.
