[There's someone who hasn't been around in a while, still on her exploring kick it seems. She's found a room that appears piled high with shelves upon shelves of comic books, and is indeed reading though a few with an interested expression. Upon closer inspection, all the comics are about different versions of people in here, some before the dressing room and some taking place in it.]

[well now, that is interesting. he doesn't say anything right away when he spots her, just pulling a book from a shelf and looking the cover over.]

...how'd you find this place?

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

[Looks up when he speaks, offering a polite smile.]

Exploring. I've been doing that for a while now.

[seasides]

[nods, returning the smile and slipping the comic back on the shelf.]

This is the first I've seen of it. Wonder how new it is.

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

Well, I haven't been down this hallway before, so I can't say. Still...

[Flips through one of the comic books.]

I wonder if people might be upset by something like this.

[seasides]

[the smile dies a bit and he nods.]

It's likely. I know I wouldn't want someone reading my life. There are some things in every person's past that are better left secret.

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

That's what I was thinking. It almost makes me feel bad for reading any of these, like I don't really have the right, you know?

[Frowns a little and places the book back on the shelf.]

[seasides]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I wonder if the room should be closed off or something.

[...he also wonders where his book is.]

*is wandering by, carrying some schoolbooks meant for young children; he pauses to look in the room when he spots the comics though*

Hey, comic books. Cool. I wonder if they have my favorite series.

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

Unless your favorite series is all about your life, no.

[Puts the comic she was reading back on the shelf.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*blinks and looks at you questioningly*

... what?

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

All the comics in the room are... rather unique.

[Gestures to one of the shelves. Help yourself, by all means.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he picks up a random comic book and flips through it, his expression darkening as he reads*

What the fuck kind of trick is this?

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

It seems there's a book for everyone in here.

[She seems a bit on edge at his reaction though.]

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Another library?

[Ping! Now he'll wander closer...]

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

[Looks up briefly.]

A very... unique library.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Really?

[glancing around, he does notice quite a few comics...]

Graphic novels, I presume.

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

Something like that. It's what they're about that's so strange though.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

If you don't mind me asking, then, what are they about?

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

The people in here.

[Holds up the comic she's been reading. She herself is on the cover, saying something or other in speech bubbles.]

[fading-song.livejournal.com]

[Just walking into the room with a curious look on her face.]

...Huh.

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

[Glances at her, but continues reading.]

[fading-song.livejournal.com]

...That's a lot of comic books...

[Never really read them that much back home though. They weren't very interesting to her.]

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

One for everyone who's been in here, I think.

[fading-song.livejournal.com]

[Blinks at that.]

...

[Picks a book from the shelf next to her...]

This is...

[Puts that book back before looking for the L's now.]

[esthimir.livejournal.com]

[Goes back to skimming before putting that book back, just browsing now.]
