[If you're in the library today, you might notice a young boy trying to reach a book on a very high shelf. Standing on his tippy toes and stretching doesn't seem to be working.]

...can I borrow a step stool, please?

*browsing idly and, hey. kiddie*

There's one over there.

[drink_this]

Thank you! [looks over there]

[toiletseat_girl]

No problem. Those shelves are kinda high, aren't they?

[drink_this]

They're not too high for grown-ups.

[height_rule]

*grabs book for you?*

[drink_this]

...you're really tall!

[height_rule]

*offering you the book*

And you're really short. You want the damn thing or not?

[drink_this]

[pausing...then taking the book] Thank you.

I'm supposed to be short.

... Counselor Watari?

[drink_this]

Watari is my dad's name. I'm Yutaka!

[cloakanddaikon]

Have we met before, Yutaka?

[drink_this]

[considering you] I don't think so...

[hot4shoes]

I always just ask the librarian to get books off the high shelves for me.

[drink_this]

I don't know who the librarians are.

[hot4shoes]

I can see how that would be a problem.

[drink_this]

It's a problem?

[esp_not_pms]

[...so I'm taller than you, but probably not tall enough to reach either. :/]

Which book do you want?

[drink_this]

[Bon's life is pain~]

That one right there! [pointing to something on the highest shelf]

[esp_not_pms]

[:/]

...ah. I believe there are stools in the library, if you'd like me to find one.

[drink_this]

Let's look together!
