Someone finally tries to handle Imi's pron!trauma...

[justanimitator]

[Soooo, this one time, Imitator!Len actually did make it to the library [though he doesn't know who the 'librarian' is yet...] ...mostly because it was a combination of rainy and snowy out, and he didn't like what it did to his clothing or running back to the bus to change (again).

As he is standing by the shelves, trying to figure out how everything is sorted and what to look for, he notices a familiar face...]

[defender]

I'd imagine so.

Here we are. Tea. Take your pick.

[justanimitator]

[shakes himself out of it]

O-- Oh. These look good...!

[defender]

I take it with plenty of milk and sugar, myself.

[justanimitator]

[have a surprised smile]

Me too! Um... I like it very sweet. Honey and cinnamon sticks are good too...

[defender]

[Smirks, teasingly.]

Chubby bunny, aren't we?

[justanimitator]

[heeeeeeey-- He's not sure about the 'bunny' part, but he's getting the gist here]

Sweet things are good! Likes cakes, candies, pie, bread pudding, chocolate... and bananas!

I can't get 'chubby' either.

[defender]

[Undeterred.]

Chubby bunny.

[justanimitator]

[Moooouuuuuu!]

Even-- even if I am-- I still like them!

[he might be pouting a little]

[defender]

[SNICKERS.]

You really make this too easy, don't you?

[justanimitator]

...


[teased again? *slump*]

I'm... starting to think so.

[defender]

[Shoulder pat.]

It happens to everyone.

[justanimitator]

[no real reaction-- congrats, Miku, you are on Len's short list of people who don't startle him by touching him]

...Being um, teased?

[defender]

No real harm is meant by it.

[justanimitator]

That's what someone told me... that it's funny and not supposed to be mean. Um-- Miku-san was just laughing too. Never saw that before... it was nice.

So! Um! I'm going to try and learn what to do if there is 'teasing'. Like everyone else!

There isn't a book on it, is there?

[defender]

I don't think there is, Len, but your reaction to teasing is just fine the way it is.

[As in: MOST ENTERTAINING THING EVER.]

[justanimitator]

...it is?!

[SO USED]

[defender]

Absolutely.

[justanimitator]

Then that's good, I'm glad. I mean-- I want to do things 'fine'!


...still want to figure out 'jokes' sometime, though.

[defender]

[Continues walking, switching to a different section of shelves entirely before selecting a small paperback and handing it to him.]

I doubt there will be too many books on the topic, but there's a picture book on the four seasons. You might find more advanced information in an encyclopedia.

[justanimitator]

I like pictures a lot, so, um, that's fine. [idly starts flipping through it as he speaks]

Oh, this looks fun. I can't wait!

[defender]

And let's see, instruments...

[Makes a gesture towards the other side of the library.] This way.

[justanimitator]

[reluctantly closes the book, but eagerly follows]

[defender]

[Stifles a yawn as she pads quietly through the library.]

Have you met everyone yet, Len?

[justanimitator]

Um, in the Dressing Room? Noooo... I mean, there's a lot of people here even if it's less than 'Earth', right? I've only been around for uh... not much more than a month, I think.

I've met a lot of people, though.

[defender]

Well, I certainly haven't met everyone, but I meant more along the lines of what sort of people you have.
