"Another alchemist?"

"Sure, how advanced a book are you needing?"

Will turned off the water and dried off and got dressed. He put the food in the oven so it didn't get really cold, then headed back down

"Ummm, no idea, I just need something to cure my boredom. Hehe!" Emi had now stopped jumping and began to make her way closer to the shelves. "So I don't mind, each book tells a different method, story or reason so they are all good, yays!"

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 10:43 pm

Rei watched the girl wander the store. "That's true," she said absentmindedly. "If you want something to cure boredom, there's fiction novels right here." She waved her hand at a set of shelves near the girl.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she turned, then winked. "Hey, Zergio. Good shower?"

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 10:45 pm

Will stuck his tongue out in slight embarasement, his hair still wet. He then looked at Emi, and grinned.

"To cure bordum you say? Rei is right in looking at the fiction. While sets of books that will keep you occupied for weeks~"

by **Shadowed Glass** Mon Jan 17, 2011 10:50 pm

"Good point, yays! I can still have an alchemy book though right? They are always good fun, hehe!" Emi now skipped her way over to the nearby shelves that contained the fiction. "Hmm.."

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 10:58 pm

Rei playfully stuck her tongue out at Will.

"You can have whatever books you like as long as you have money to pay for them," Rei said. "I'll see what books I have on ice alchemy." She went to the back of the store where the alchemy books were. Finding a few about ice alchemy, she returned to find the girl.

Will was leaning agenst a bookcase, but fell over when he accidently pushed back a bookcase by leaning on it.

"I thought it was agenst a wall. Shesh"

by **SamSeven** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:00 pm

The people that had come pouring out of everywhere in the shop were over in the bookshelves now. There goes the quiet

by **Shadowed Glass** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:02 pm

"Yays, thank yous kind person!" Emi had just pulled a book from the shelves when Zergio fell. "Awws nos! Is yous alright?! You can still breath right?!"

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:07 pm

Rei watched Will a moment to make sure he was alright, then went back to the front of the store. She spotted the customer that had entered earlier. "They're noisy, but harmless," she said, more to herself than to the woman. "Have you found everything alright?"

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:09 pm

"Im alright. Just a lil fall, nothing serious"

Will got back up and placed it back in place.

by **SamSeven** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:14 pm

"Harmless, huh?? Maybe not for your store," she said looking around.

"I did find most of the things I was looking for, although I guess I was just browsing. Can you recommend something??

by **Shadowed Glass** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:18 pm

"Ohhh, thats good. I though you were injured, yays for no injuries!" Emi began to dance as she keep hold of a book tightly in her hand.

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:23 pm

"My store seems to be the gathering place of insane people," Rei muttered as she leafed through one of the books she had gotten for the strange girl in the shelves. "I always have recommendations. What kind of books do you like? Fiction, nonfiction?"

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:25 pm

Will was starting to feel a bit crowded with everyone there, so he snuck over to the stairwell.

"Im gonna head out and do some business Rei! I'll be back later"

He walked down the stairs and exited the building.

[[Gio is out for now]]

by **SamSeven** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:31 pm

She looked around the store again, watching one of the people head for the stairs, giving the saleswoman a chance to say goodbye.

"Actually, I was hoping you had something on automail. Sort of advanced...And maybe a book or two on alchemic tattoos and their properties"

"And some fiction to keep me entertained," she added as an afterthought.

by **Shadowed Glass** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:36 pm

Emi continued dancing until she remembered what she came for, she skipped over to Rei and then began to look through the book she had picked up while she waited.

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:46 pm

Rei waved at Will as she handed the girl her book.

"Automail, huh? I definitely have some of that," she said, repeatedly clenching her left hand. "I'll go back and see what I have anything on alchemic tattoos. Not many people ask for that so I'm not sure what I have." She turned to go to the back of the store, stopping at the first bookcase and pointing at one of the middle shelves. "The fiction books I prefer are on this shelf. It's hard for me to recommendation just one or two books, so feel free to browse these while I look for your other books."

by **admin** Mon Jan 17, 2011 11:49 pm

Ace walks into the store, heads up the stairs, and drops the book costume on the ground.

"I'm done advertising for your store," Ace whined. "I haven't eaten in days I was so dedicated."

The shelf the girl had indicated was stacked with volume upon volume of thick, brightly colored books. She ran her finger over the bindings, absently reading titles.

The clerk had seemed uncomfortable at the mention of automail, and it tugged at her curiosity, but it wasn't really the sort of thing you just asked about, was it??

Just then a man appered at the head of the stairs and dropped a bundle unceremoniously on the ground, drawing her attention away from the racks.

by **Shadowed Glass** Tue Jan 18, 2011 12:02 am

Emi was still reading the book and poked the pages at times but glanced up when a man entered the store. She held out the book facing away from her and pointed at a paragraph on the page. "This is so awesomes! Awesomes! Yays!"

by **Yoyo** Tue Jan 18, 2011 12:09 am

Rei heard the newcomer and groaned. She grabbed a book off the shelf and returned to the front. The girl with the ice alchemy book was excited about something and the newcomer seemed more interested in books than in Ace.

"I only had a couple on alchemic tattoos, so hopefully they're what you were looking for. My beginner automail books are over there on the counter. You may look for them yourself or I will get them as soon as I help this poor lost soul." She handed the woman the books and went to Ace.

"Ace, there's food downstairs, you know," she said, picking up the costume unceremoniously dumped on the floor. "It's a bakery, but they have enough variety to be supper as well as a snack."

by **admin** Tue Jan 18, 2011 12:11 am

Ace smiled and nodded towards the woman. "Well fellow book readers, I will be downstairs."

Ace unceremoniously collapsed down the stairs from hunger and sleptwalked towards the bakery.

by **SamSeven** Tue Jan 18, 2011 12:26 am

"Or I might be willing to share some of the things I have," she called after the man, hefting the sack of pastries, "I bought too many." He ignored her and went - more like fell - down the stairs.
"Is he alright?!?" she ran to the top of the stairs and looked down to where the man - His name is Ace - Ace, should have been lying in a heap. But he was walking away like nothing happened.
"Should we follow him??" she asked dubiously.
