[Alex? He's got a few notebooks on hand, a pencil tucked behind an ear and it appears that he's stalking down the halls, purpose on mind. It's as if there's something he needs to study, but that doesn't make sense

[You said a magic word just now.]

History of which place, may I ask?

video.

[faultlesscon]

The old continent, preferably. [Religion, mainly. Maybe.]

Though any piece of history, I would be willing to read.

[toris_lietuvos]

I only know the history of my world. Eastern Europe, and some places near there.

[He holds up what was once a blank book.] I can't guarantee its quality, but, I wrote down everything I could remember on the topic long ago.

[faultlesscon]

Eastern-- I would take that to read over anything. [He raises a brow, quiet for a moment while looking at the book.]

How long have you been doing such a thing?

[toris_lietuvos]

[For reasons you will not understand, that statement makes him happy.]

Months really. I honestly make no claims to professionalism with this. Writing is a hobby of mine. So, I've taken to acquiring blank books and just ... picking a topic. I've got some on history, mythology, even poetry. But it's all rather limited by what I can remember.

[Listening to the other, he nods.]

Still, it's something. Authentic more than most history books I can remember, from what you are saying. It would be fine if I read it?

video.

[toris_lietuvos]

Certainly. Books are meant to be read, after all.

[It's authentic alright, his own personal history and that of his brothers, lover, friends, and enemies. He tried to keep from making it too personal, but 'tried' is the key word. At least he kept from using personal pronouns.]

[faultlesscon]

Alright. Where would you want to meet, then? [Inwardly? He's terribly excited to be able to read some new material. If the other's written it himself, then Alex is definitely anxious.]

--You have my appreciation.

[toris_lietuvos]

Wherever you'd like. I'm not exactly busy at the moment.

[Don't mind the awkwardness, he's just easily embarrassed.]

Think nothing of it. Just, please don't loose this, I only made the one copy.

video.

[faultlesscon]

Hm-- are you by the rec room? I can stop by there. If not, I'm already on the move so a room number would suffice.

I wouldn't - there are things I would lose here, but intentionally. This would not be one of them.

[toris_lietuvos]

I can be there. I'm not all that far away.

[He grins. Though there's not been much demand for it, acting as the local book lender has been a rather satisfying thing. That is partially why he's working on another history book, but given the ominous state of things he's not even sure if he'll be able to finish it.]

Re: video.

[faultlesscon]

I'll be there, then. [A nod and Alex will be there--merely waiting against the wall by the doors inside.]
