[This was...strange. But that was par for the course...usually.]

Well, it seems that Paradisa is acting up moreso than usual, but-

[...]

...Good lord, what on earth happened to the library?! Bookshelves are not supposed to be placed like that! Neither are the books themselves!

[THIS IS AN OUTRAGE

and he can be found floating around the library quickly after finding out about the book T-Rex stomping around. Say what you want about a moving book fleeing from moving books, but it's actually kind of threatening in his view.]

Comments

[whitecovered]

[Attention get! He notices the shaking quickly, and will start to float away slowly, urging Dextera to follow.]

This doesn't look good...

[twisted_baroque]

[he'll follow and, just incase, slips a hand into his coat's pocket. he didn't have any weapons other than this, but it was better safe than sorry.]

[whitecovered]

[The book-saur stomps nearby, causing even more shaking shortly after. Weiss picks up the speed on his floating, and he's sure Dextera knows what to do after.]

[twisted_baroque]

[yup! same thing everytime the flesh-eating Meta-Being shows up back home. run. but it's thanks to that thing that he's pretty fast.

hopefully faster than the book-saur because he doesn't want to be eaten again.]

[whitecovered]

[Indeed, they are faster than the book-saur, thankfully. It's just...lumbering around at this point anyway.]

[twisted_baroque]

[yay! Dextera slows down just a little bit so he could write.]

Do you know what that is?

[whitecovered]

Some sort of creature, I suppose. Its odd form does not distinguish exactly what it is though.

[twisted_baroque]

I don't think I can fight it. [not without accidently setting everything on fire. maybe.] What should we do?

[whitecovered]

Flee, if it does not give chase too quickly.

[He's able to take it down but...no point in messing up this library and the surroundings even more, and the book-saur seems to have calmed down a bit anyway.]

[twisted_baroque]

Okay. I can do that. [because if there ws one thing the mute knew he could do, it was run away.]

[whitecovered]

Good.

[Now let's see how stealthy you can be, Dextera, while Weiss is slowly edging/floating away.]

[twisted_baroque]

[he's actually not too bad at it, keeping an eye out for anything he could trip on accidently and bring trouble. his breathing seems to be controlled too. some Meta-Beings had sharp hearing, after all, and getting around them was sometimes better than fighting.]

[whitecovered]

[He's better at it than Weiss thought he'd be. Floating away even more...hopefully they pass without the book-saur detecting them.]

[twisted_baroque]

[the coast looks clear for now but the book shelves are still shaking. better get a move on…]

[whitecovered]

[Indeedy. Floating away faster now, while occasionally glancing back to see how Dextera is holding up.]

[twisted_baroque]

[he looks fine but he's trying not to get worked up. they'll be fine, they'll be okay, you don't have to worry about dying again....

Dextera takes a deep breath and continues on his way. is the door out of here coming up?]

[whitecovered]

[He's not actually sure which way they're going...to the exit or even further back of the library, so he turns around, spinning a bit, to figure that out.]

[twisted_baroque]

[Dextera tilts his head, watching Weiss. what's wrong?]

[whitecovered]

...This library has transformed more than I had thought.

[At least he's whispering this.]

[twisted_baroque]

[he looks around before pulling out the journal again.]

Maybe I can climb on the shelves so we can see where we're going?

[whitecovered]

There is no need for you to do that.

[In response, Weiss himself floats upwards, above several shelves, to scout the place.]

[twisted_baroque]

[oh right. guess who forgot about the floating magical book thing again?

he's just going to watch and wait for Weiss to come back down.]

[whitecovered]

[Doop dee doop, and he floats back down.]

We should continue in this direction.

[Going back means book-saur and well...yeah.]

[twisted_baroque]

[yeah, let's not meet the book-suar any more than needed.

he'll start walking again slowly. this place was finally starting to weird him out and he'd like an exit soon.]

[whitecovered]

[Luckily, there seems to be an exit coming up soon...and by soon, we mean a few yards away.]
