Hello Grant! I hear you like books, and I don't know what kind of books you like! If I'm going to help assemble a library I need to fix that lack of knowledge straight away. So let's talk books as soon as possible!
At your earliest convenience, of course.
[Grant may or may not have any prior context for this sudden message, because Annette surely did not successfully provide any]
Oh wow, I didn't even think about the fact that your world probably has even different genres than the ones I'm learning about in this one, huh! Yeah, we probably want to have this chat in person, it might be a while. Or a lot of little whiles, whatever works better.
Oh yeah, sorry! I didn't really explain that, oops. I mentioned to Dimitri that I know I and a few others would love to have a little library in the new house, and he mentioned you would too, and I just got super excited about the possibilities and I guess I forgot you can't read minds, sorry!
So when do you want to talk texts? There's no rush, of course, I'm just getting carried away is all. 😄📚📖
text; do we wanna go to action from here or do a new thread elsewhere? :Ic
That sounds great, thank you! I was about to go right to you, but I just realized you may not be in your room right now. At least I didn't find myself outside your door with my hand inches away from knocking before realizing that I didn't actually respond to you to see if you were around or available. That would've been ridiculous, and a little rude! I'm currently on the couch where I have certainly been this entire time.
let's go to action(unless you want to handwave since this one took me a month, wheezes)!
Oh, you're fine - I am here right now, actually! I'll meet you in the living room, just a sec.
[Sure enough, there's a the click-and-creak of a door opening, and Grant heads to the living room... carrying one of his several Woopers in one arm.] Hey! Sorry, he, uh... did not want to let me leave.
[Sometimes, if your pet has you trapped, all you can do is take it with you.]
So, uh-- where did you wanna start, as far as talking books?
Re: let's go to action(unless you want to handwave since this one took ME nearly a month, wheezeba)!
[Annette smiles excitedly at Grant's entrance, and of course has a grin to spare for the Wooper in tow.]
Hi Grant, and thank you, kind Wooper, for sharing him. Where to begin...
Hm, what sort of books do you usually read, I guess? I mostly read texts and nonfiction of all kinds, though I'm trying to expand into fiction a little. Like historical fiction, which is both weird and interesting in a world with so many different histories that I don't know anything about!
[The Wooper gives a little woop of appreciation. Thank you for acknowledging his sacrifice.]
Well, let's see... I do like a lot of nonfiction, too! I'd definitely be interested in seeing what kinds of sociology books this place has... oh, and archaeology, too, given their different histories, like you said!
I used to read a lot of historical fiction, too, though less these days... oh, and romance novels. ...Those can be kinda hit or miss, back home, but... I actually wonder if I might have better luck with them, here. [Y'know, given this world's... vastly more accepting apparent social norms.]

Hey! I... like a pretty broad range, actually, it might take a bit to talk about, haha.
You're putting together a library? That's really cool; what brought this on?

Oh, no worries - that's a really great idea, yeah!
I'd be happy to talk any time, honestly; I don't have much of a strict schedule these days.
text; to action or a new thread, up to you!
