He mustered up a playful smile, though it felt forced. "Oh? And where would that be?" He teased. Just pretend everything's okay. Pretend hard enough and maybe it'll be true.

She rolled her eyes. "Obviously you'll be living in the library," she chuckled.

He grinned. "Oh good. Plenty of books there to keep me entertained." He replied, trying to keep up the banter. Just smile and nod and pretend and she'll believe it and be happy.

She turned to glimpse at him and smiled. "You still like to read, right?"

He nodded. "Of course." He replied with a small smile. Though i haven't had the chance since I left, so i dont really know.

"You'll be pleased to know we've upgraded, then!" Kana said, trying a bit too hard to seem excited. He probably doesn't care…

He smiled. "Oh? That's good." He said. That's not what I want to hear about. I want to hear about you. I-I want to hug you and hold you the way I never did before I left, but I can't, because you're engaged.

Kana was unsure about what to say. He doesn't care. Talk about something interesting for once! "Oh! Um, I scared an assassin away while you were gone!" She smiled, clearly proud of herself.

He gave a real smile this time. "Oh? All by yourself? Without me?" He asked, looking at her.

She nodded, a smug grin plastered on her face. "Yep! And I only had a butter knife for a weapon, so that makes it even better!"

He chuckled. "What exactly happened?" He asked. She fought off an assassin with a butter knife while you did…what? Killed child soldiers? Was captured? He bit his lip slightly.

Kana shrugged. "I told them I would give them some gold if they left me alone. And if they didn't I would kill their family." She grinned mischievously at him. "I don't know how that worked, but it did"

Jair laughed softly. "Well. Money is certainly a good motivator." He commented with a small smile.

She smiled back. Well. That's it. Your only cool story. "So, um, did you want to do anything fun? Or…" She trailed off, not sure what to say or do.

Jair shrugged. "It's up to you." He replied softly. "I don't mind either way."

Kana had led the way to the library, wanting to show it off to Jair. Hopefully he'll be happy about it…
They entered the room, and it was twice as large as it usually was. Books were everywhere to be seen. It still seemed like they didn't have enough room. "Apparently a lot of authors have been publishing their works recently." She chuckled.

Jair chuckled softly. "Oh good." He replied. "Plenty of new reading material then." He looked around. "Wow. It really is a lot bigger." He ssid with a soft laugh.

Her eyes roamed the library and she spotted a book she had just finished reading. "Ooh-" she grabbed it and shoved it into his hands. "You'll like that one!" She smiled sweetly at him. "Trust me, it's soo good."

He took it. "Uhm, alright." He said softly. "I'll read it later. What's it about?" He asked, looking down at her.

She grinned, a twinkle suddenly appearing in her eyes. "You'll have to find out, won't you?"

He rolled his eyes, chuckling softly as he put it in his pocket. "Alright then."
