[The Oldacon is out and about, a rare occurrence for the reclusive, eldest Dr. Emmerich. He's been... adjusting to the Nexus, to being in close contact with people again, and to being with David again (or one of them, anyway).
But keeping in close quarters with his(?) David, while strange and a little wonderful in the way that it is not at all like riding a bike, can be suffocating at times. So he's headed for the library again. As usual.]
[Just outside the library, right in the hallway, is a small-ish cardboard box marked FREE BOOK INSIDE on a pedestal. It looks incredibly out of place.]
Hm. [Hal tries to move the box. It's stuck. Relenting, he opens the top and pulls out the single book inside.]
A comic... [peers at it thoughtfully] Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere. A man getting caught in an impossible place that changes his life. How very fitting...
[[OOC: Feel free to just bother Old!Hal, but if your character would like, the box will give them a book that's remarkably well-suited to them.]]
