When: May 21st
Time: 5 P.M.

Snake had done something kind of stupid. He had told Samus that the one thing he wanted to do, that he never got to do on off days, is go bungee jumping. Not long after telling her this, he realized he knew nothing about it. Instead of simply looking it up online, he had decided to go check out the library, noting he had never been there for long. He was looking for another book to read anyways.
Snake wandered in, looking at the stack of books set up on a shelf near the entrance.

When Snake walked into the library, EVA just so happened to have glanced up from tidying up. It was just before closing time, and she was only minutes from leaving and locking up. As soon as Snake showed up, though, EVA decided that it could wait just a little longer.

She approached Snake slowly. "Hey," she said, waving. "Are you looking for something?"

Snake looked up and the blonde woman, and grinned.
"Hey, Ms. EVA. I am sort of looking for something, but I'm almost afraid to say it, it's a little absurd. Do you have anything at all on bungee jumping?"
He let out a short chuckle, scratching the back of his head.
"Other than that, I'm looking for anything good, I haven't read a book for pleasure in quite a while."

EVA had seen Snake in the halls before and even during the war- seeing him at the library wasn't particularly surprising- but she had never really gotten a good look at him her entire stay at the school. For a few slightly awkward moments after Snake was finished talking, EVA zoned out and stared at him.

"Oh, uh..." He looked so much like his father. "Bungee jumping?" The eyepatch was just too weird. "I'm sure we do." They even sounded alike. "I've never seen any, but I'm pretty sure it was just because I've never looked for them before." The way he said her name. "It'll probably be around sports books." EVA inhaled sharply and smiled.

Her heart was beating irregularly fast. She was disappointed in herself.

Unfortunately for EVA, although Snake could certainly be dense at times, anything that could possibly involve someone studying his eyepatch was not one of them. He instinctively reached up and touched it, before whipping his hand down when he realized he was doing so.

"Sorry, does the eyepatch weird you out?"

temptedbysnake May 23 2009, 03:33:24 UTC

EVA frowned. "Not really," she started, then paused before correcting herself. "Well, yes, but not in the way you're probably thinking. It makes you look like someone I used to know." She bit her tongue and turned around.

"The sports non-fiction is on the second level with the rest of the non-fiction. If you follow me, I'll show you."

Snake opened his mouth and closed it again quickly. I remind her of someone with this eyepatch...?
He wasn't sure who that someone would be, but she didn't seem like she wanted to talk about it. He followed her up the stairs into the nonfiction section.

"So... how have you been since the war?" Way to be awkward, Snake. But he realized he didn't know much about the librarian, and she seemed nice enough. There certainly was something about her... some kind of draw, but it was far different from the kind of attraction he had to Samus. It was much more... innocent. In a distant cousin or sister sense. A kindred spirit. It was a shame she kept to herself, he was sure they could become friends. But that was really the pot calling the kettle black, as keeping to themselves was a thing they had in common.

EVA took her time replying to Snake's question. She poked her head down an aisle and spoke, "Since the war? I've been... alright." She moved out of the aisle and kept walking. "A good friend of mine left recently," she admitted; A lot of students and faculty had been leaving so she figured that was vague enough. "But other than that, I can't complain."

Another aisle, EVA glanced into. "Here we are," she said with fake cheer. "I'm not quite sure where to start looking..." she continued, pressing a finger to her lips.

"Hm."
Snake looked around the shelves, scanning the titles, quickly.

"I would imagine it would be with recreational sport type things..."
He chuckled, turning to EVA.
"You know, if there's nothing here, it'll be fine. I'm also looking for a book to read for fun. I haven't read for the sake of read in forever..."
He let his voice trail off.
"You know, I'm sorry. I didn't realize how late this was. I can try and come back tomorrow morning or something. You're probably looking to close..."

After hearing 'recreational sports', EVA spun around to face the bookcase opposite the one she was looking at. "Oh, pff. This is about closing time, yes," she admitted, plucking a book from the shelf, "but I'm not going to throw you out. Yet, anyways." She smirked, grabbing another book and handing them to Snake. "These might be helpful."

By then, EVA had warmed up to talking to Snake. There was still that nagging in the back of her mind to tell him everything she wanted to say, but she was able to hold back.

"Something fun to read? Well, that all depends on what kind of book you like," she said, smiling a little more warmly.
