Samuel
Amalia's admission changed the mood somewhat, suddenly this was less of a passing meeting and more of an actual conversation. He understood the desire to wander to somewhere familiar just for the comfort of memories, gave her a sympathetic smile. After all, they were trying to be more understanding with each other at the moment, weren't they?
"We've been moving things around recently. Some of the books were getting mouldy on the top shelves so I've been working to rewrite them and replace them lower down." It was a huge project, one he'd only been able to attempt in chunks, so the Atheneum was in a constant state of jumbled genres at the moment. "That, and people don't put things back in the right places." His frown at this spoke deeply of his frustrated librarian soul.
As for what he was doing there, Sam looked up to the bat...but that wasn't all. "Well, I was going to work on the project I've been writing. A history of um...the time in the barrier." This was a lie, but he didn't want to tell Amalia about his Voice book; it seemed like it would cause more problems than good. "I could...stay to talk for a while though?" A cautious, hopeful offer to his newfound sister.
