The tall, slender man moved away from the books and towards the girl with an easy, ambling gait, pausing and poised on battered, red Converses. He watched her with vague curiosity in his dark eyes, awaiting an answer.

"I'd brought of few of the books I'd requistioned here so that a few other people could read and I figured if no one was going to read them, I'd just be an Indian-giver." Willow said then rolled her eyes. "And here I am, rambling away.

"Came back then? I'm sorry for you, really I am."
A moment's pause, and then his demeanor changed abruptly. "Naaaaw, don't worry about that!" replied the young man cheerfully, swinging himself around and half-sitting on the back of a chair. That gesture stripped years off of his face, let his dark eyes sparkle congenially. "Like reading then, do you?" Tipping his fluffy head to one side, the man attempted to spot a book the girl might have been carrying. "What about?"
"Ohright, I'm the Doctor, by the way. What did you say your name was?"

"Oh, I love reading. About all sorts of stuff," Willow replied with a bright smile. "Really. The sky's the limit." The small stack in her arms consisted of witchcraft from her own world and several other dimensions.
"I didn't. At least, not yet," Willow giggled. "I'm Willow. It's nice to meet you."

"Love reading, too," the Doctor skimmed his fingers along the spines of a few books, and then brightened visibly. "Ohhh, no way! They've got this here? A History of Modern Paranormal Studies? I thought this was out of print!"

Willow giggled softly as his eyes lit up. "From what I gather, if it's been in your world up to the point you were last there, you can requisition it," Willow said, nodding slowly.
