[ i don't know what you expect out of taair because he is, of course, in the library. more accurately, he's standing in the library's massive history section, hand to his heart. though... it's a little hard to tell it's immediately him from behind, if only because there's a pair of blue wings coming out of his back, and they are puffed up to maximum capacity.
the library is very quiet. but claude who wandered in might hear something. ]
[ the tiny bird peep turns to a startled bird noise instead, and he coughs, surprised, hand to his chest, wings all poofed up. ]
Claude! [ but once the initial surprise wears off, his face goes to full delight. ] I think that may be an understatement. Isn't this wonderful? There are books from more places and times than I think any of us could have ever begun to fathom - I almost don't know where to start.
Irian history. [ he doesn't even hesitate - there's almost a soft trill to the way he says it, like birdsong. ] By far.
But, I know for a fact there won't be much of it here. I'll find what I can, of course! That certainly will not stop me from looking. [ a bit of determination when he says that too, a little roguishness to his own smile. if there are sources for his book here, he's going to find them. ]
Any sort of history would bring me great joy, of course. And political theory - particularly the different sorts other places have, particularly democratic government. And... travelogues have a special place in my heart, as well. And...well, I could go on forever!
If you're feeling overwhelmed then, maybe write down everything you want to read, rank, prioritize, and come up with a plan. I always find myself more relaxed with a plan of attack.

[ fond. ]
But, a wise plan all the same. What about you, my friend? Do you plan to do some light reading, today? I wouldn't mind the company.

I don't know what the day holds, to be honest.

[ it's affectionate though, and he sets his hands on his hips. ]
I suppose I could bore you to sleep with a story, for the best of both worlds.
no subject
You don't think I'd be absolutely riveted?
no subject
Oh, well. I'm sure you will be. I just didn't think it very prudent to say so if you would prefer the opposite.
