The people around him all seemed to be sulking or on edge about something, and while he didn't know the full extent of things a lot of it seemed to involve someone new showing up. Admittedly, he was feeling some disappointment since they hadn't moved yet. Then he had been cautioned about going out by himself. Fai was tired of sitting at home since he'd grown comfortable venturing around the bubble by himself. It had been a slow process and he wasn't about to halt his progress even more by remaining in their apartment.

And so it happened that he managed to slip out the building and return to a place that was quickly becoming his favorite- the library. Those who found him there would likely see him climbing shelves to reach for books he probably should have asked for help with, or sitting amidst his new book fort that consisted mostly of basic books on magic from several worlds.

That sounds like fun but I don't read very fast. Maybe if I was better...

[Fai receives a clueless blink at his question.]

What's a dictionary?

Reading out loud will help you get faster.

It's a book that tells you what words mean. It makes reading when you're by yourself a lot easier.

Will it?

[Sola's eyes get a big bigger in amazement as they approach the library steps.]

Really!? That's so cool! I'll definitely have to get a dictionary while we're here!

[He lets go of Fai's hand and all but leaps up the steps, waiting for the small blond at the top.]

You understand more of what you hear than what you can read, right? That's how it works.

[Fai grins wide and watches Sola bound up the stairs before he takes his time climbing them himself. At the top he glances to the doors before looking back to the Hylian.]

I'm sure one of the librarians can show you how to use it. I can too. Do you, um... should we meet back here when we're done?

That sounds good! We shouldn't be too long or Johnny and big Fai will worry though.

[Apparently putting a time limit on their fun doesn't dampen Sola's spirits any; after all, the sooner they get home, the sooner he can show off his books!]

I'll ask the librarians for help so you can find your magic animal talking books, okay? Good luck!

[His own grin remains wide as he holds the door open for bitty!Fai.]
