Remus is surrounded in books. Nobody knows where he got them, there's a suspicion that he's been raiding Nexus bookshelves.

Clair visits him! Because that's the thing to do, really. She is at fault for his recent troubles, anyway. So she's checking on him. Knock knock!

[ironicname]

"Hullo? Yes?" Came a distracted voice from the other side.

[littlepotions]

"Mr. Lupin?" At least he was awake today! So she slips in, and follows the voice.

[ironicname]

He's there! Behind the books. Somewhere. A hand waves.

[littlepotions]

So she follows the hand, and finds him! "Hullo. Feeling better today?"

[ironicname]

"Somewhat, yes. Thank you," he smiled when she found him. Surrounded by notes and reading materials, a pair of spectacles on his nose, he looked much more the professor he once was.

[littlepotions]

She leaned against a pile of books. "I'm really, really sorry about the mistake...."

[ironicname]

"It's all right," he said, putting the quill into the inkwell for the moment. "I'm none the worse for it."

[littlepotions]

She nodded, smiling. "You have my address, if you notice anything?"

That said, she wasn't leaving.

[ironicname]

"Oh, definitely. In fact, I'm also sure I have an owl in here. Somewhere."

The books have taken over.

[littlepotions]

Well, she doesn't know that feeling. No, not at ALL.

"Somewhere... Are you looking for something?"

[ironicname]

"Looking... oh, the books?"

He held one up, a dusty tome with the title Apparition Anomalies. "I'm trying to find out how I got here and how to get home.

[littlepotions]

"I come by a portal...." *gestures vaguely back towards the main Nexus* "You came somehow different?"

[ironicname]

"A misdirected Apparition. I was trying to reach the Ministry offices and instead ended up in this Nexus."

Flip flip flip flip. Another book that hasn't got anything useful in. He closes it, drops it on a stak to his right, and picks the next one.

"Oh. Terribly sorry. Rude of me." He put the book aside, looking up at her again.

[littlepotions]

"No, I'm sorry, I'm distracting you. I don't know much about apparation beyond the basics, or I'd help."

[ironicname]

"It's not pressing that I find this out straightaway. And ... I rather like having someone about to talk to." He leaned back in the chair, pulling off the spectacles and rubbing his eyes.
