[ NERDS IN THE LIBRARY. sqq is tucked in a corner muttering angrily at whatever he's reading. if one could have the emotion of taking a red pen to a book... well, here he is ]
[NERDS IN THE LIBRARY!!!! Honestly the only reason Kaveh isn't scribbling in the books is because he started and then got in trouble... tch. But he overhears SQQ as he's swapping out books; he peers around the shelves, staying far enough away to spare him from his Feelings.]
[ the immediate internal !!!!!!!!!!!! and casual flop over the table sure is a thing that's happening, help him. pay no attention to the collection of traditional bound books by his elbow ]
[ kaveh he appreciates you for not pushing the issue. the strained smile says as much and while he does his best to return to cool aloof shizun it's sure a challenge when he's been seen with his hair down. time to hastily change the subject!!!! ]
Have you managed to find anything interesting to note?
In a sense. Our world is full of beasts and creatures all deadlier than the next. This one has studied them all to varying success and comparing those to other universes has been quite interesting.
Fascinating... I wonder if I could find one of Teyvat's? [Hmmm. He'll have to look... for now, though, he peers over at SQQ's books.] Do you have one now?

Well, Kaveh, at least, is very gracious about this kind of thing--he nods slowly, though he doesn't really look convinced.]
Alright, if you're sure.

Have you managed to find anything interesting to note?
[ other than his nonsense that is ]
no subject
But he perks up.]
Oh, yes. I've found several books on architectural styles I'm not familiar with, they're fascinating.
no subject
Truly! This one has found many bestiaries as such, all vastly different than what he is used to as well.
