"Buy it or move on!" the bookseller grumped from the counter at the back of the little structure, and Jigano pasted an apologetic smile on his face.
"Of course, here," he traded a bit of food for the little book, tucking it distractedly into his pack as he headed out into the street. There was much to do and no time in which to do it, and Rory would be wondering where he'd gotten off to. Maybe a pineapple would sweeten his lover's disposition?
