Nina's wandering through the hallways with nothing to do.
Once you get past the vampires and the acid rain, this place is pretty boring.
Nick slept in her room a few days back and she hasn't seen him since.
Feel free to snap her out of her wandering trance and chat for a bit.

And he does!
He's wandering the halls as well, although unlike Nina, he has a destination. He's on his way to the roof, since it's not that cold out today, and really, he needs something to wake him up.
... although, Nina's face kind of does that. He brightens immediately and stops in his tracks to flash a smile her way.
Yes, that smile.

Today, she's in a happy mood! She's still got a bit of a rush from the fight.
She turns, sees Nick's toothy grin, and returns the smile.
"Where'd you disappear to?"

Nina smiled! Whaaaaat.
"Um. My room?"
To sleep on something that's not a floor?

"For three days?"
(Yay random number).

He shrugs.

Her eyes wander a bit before she says: "I'm bored."

"... well, I'm not taking you outside the wall, that's for sure."

"Did I say that? I'm not that suicidal. There's gotta be something to do around here that doesn't involve near-death experiences, doesn't there?"

Think, think, think.
Then, a lightbulb! Nick's face lights up.
"There's a library that Beckett opened up," he says. "It's outside the wall, but I'm pretty sure it's safe. Haven't had a chance to go there, yet, but I've seen the sign from the roof."
It's kind of hard to miss a neon sign when lit up in complete darkness.

"Lead on."

Nick, as much as he wants to, resists squeaking.
Instead, he takes Nina by the hand and drags her down the stairs, outside, past the wall, and stops only once they've reached the front steps of the library.
Ooh, shiny.

When they finally stop, she grabs her arm.
"Well, I think it's still attached, at least..."
She walks up a few of the steps, then stops.
"Where do they get the books in this place, anyway?"
Reply
"I have no idea," he admits, then hops up the steps to open the door for her.
"After you."

She walks in and begins browsing the numerous volumes of literature.

-- Nick kind of just stands there and looks around for a few minutes.
There's a sudden lump in his throat that he just can't seem to swallow, so he decides to distract himself.
Look, poetry!
