[BZZT--!]  Ow!  [Pause as Oz is presumably jerking his fingers away and inspecting them for damage.  His voice is... a little more careful, a little more distracted than usual, but it'd take someone who knew him well to recognize this.]

Whoops, I didn't mean to [...] leave it alone for so long...

Say, I have a lot of books here from the library

/pets Oz :<

[forged_anew]

I can help you carry the books back, if you want.

[guess who noticed Gil's frequency disappeared. But he's... learning not to be quite so blunt and you made no mention of it so--]

He needs petting :<

[acreepybrat]

[At first he almost turns the other boy down... but it's also lonely in the empty apartment and he desperately desperately does not want to be alone. Still, Zuko shouldn't get involved in Oz's problems, and he thinks less of himself for it.]

Heh, thanks Zuko! [Rustling, and the sound of something possibly being knocked over.] Wow, there sure are a lot Even with the two of us, it might take more than one trip. I guess I'll try to get them all back to Miss Patchouli when I can...

[Yeah well Oz sure as hell isn't going to say anything about it. And before you ask, he'll be fine. These things tend to stick when you lie to yourself long enough. x)]

Pets foreverrrrr ;A;

[forged_anew]

That's fine. I'm not busy.

I'll be over in a minute.

[and since he lives just down the hall, a minute seriously means like... a minute. So here, have a knock at your door and a Zuko at your doorstep~]

[The door opens to Oz, smiling... maybe not quite as cheerfully as before, but nonetheless, the smile's still plastered on there. I don't even know if Zuzu picks up on these sorts of nuances. =/ Maybe I'm just. WASTING MY TIME. describing them to you.

♥♥]

Hey!

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR] LOL XDDD <3

[forged_anew]

[Pfft, it might take him a second, but he's expecting you to be sad so... Ah, here. Have a wave and an attempt at a smile as he peers inside]

Hi, Oz.

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR] XDD

[acreepybrat]

[Pulling the door open fully, so Zuko can come in. The living room part of the apartment is strewn with books, most of them in neat stacks, and a few scattered here and there.]

Heh, I didn't mean to get so many, but there're so many new books here, I couldn't really help it~

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[forged_anew]

[comin' in now, thx. He looks around, then starts picking up the books not piled up and getting them into a stack too.]

Don't worry about it. You really like to read, huh?

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[acreepybrat]

[Stackity stack stack. Thar's a few neat piles sitting around the room now.]

Well... I guess. Back in my world, I used to do a lot of studying at home.

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[forged_anew]

I had to do a lot of studying when I was a kid too.

[pickin' up stacks now?]

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[acreepybrat]

Really? What kind?

[Picking up a stack of his own, let's go to the library!]

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[forged_anew]

[okie. Followin' you to the library. ...he's never been. lol]

Oh. Uh... history, politics, strategic reasoning, martial arts, stuff like that.

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[acreepybrat]

Heh, me too! Well, maybe not so much martial arts. I guess I learned a little bit about how to use a sword, but it's probably nothing very practical.

[Heaves the last of the stacks onto the table, and glances over at Zuko.] I know how to get to the library, but you have to be careful, okay? Because of the monsters and all... [He's concerned for you, Zuzu. :< Not overly much for himself, but whatever.]

[Commentlog of HONOOOOR]

[forged_anew]

A lot of it was specifically 'Crown Prince' stuff, things about the country and all that.

I have my swords on me. Don't worry.
