It better not be obvious, or Rita will be horrified. Nobody needs to know what they're walking around with!] I tried once or twice, but it was a total pain. I don't need them, anyway. [Sooo frustrating, and so Rita ended up making a deity trade for all her materials from home.]
[Yep, Estelle has a sort of magical power over Rita. derederedere]
I see, that does sound like nothing short of frustrating. [Hopefully Estelle won't get to the point that she absolutely has to read a certain genre of book - though with her ADD something else will catch her attention and she will be fine.]
It's so annoying! [Uuugh. But she sighs and shrugs, because Estelle always seems to find books without looking for them, anyway.] But it's probably perfect for you. You read just about everything, don't you?
Well, anything that catches my interest I will read. [And that apparently includes books about battle techniques and how skills are transferred from inside the weapon to Blastia. This girl reads everything...aside from naughty material.
And she smiles, continuing to walk, that slowly turns into a skip, though she catches herself and goes back into a walk.]
[It might just figure that the City could leave books like that around for Estelle to find, too...
Rita blinks in a bit of surprise. Of course Estelle's optimistic, but the way she's so cheerful despite being in the City...It's pretty amazing.] You're really that excited for a library?
Of course I am. There are books! [Even if it were a simple book store, she would be this excited! However, libraries mean there is a check out system and therefore won't have to pay to read a book!]
Is there a library card system here? Is it easy to get said card if there is one?
[Yes, a used bookstore would be good. Cheaper too...]
So, can we just take books from the library, then return them? [Though that hardly made sense since it would defeat the purpose of what a library is, at least a public library.] How do they keep organized then? [Confused Estelle is confused.]
[The house is going to become a library of its own before long...
It's easy to find things when they're all out where they can be seen. Like on the floor.] Hmmm...I don't really know. [The books she took are still buried somewhere...]
♥♥♥; oh my god, I used the wrong 'they're' /grammar nazi's only herself
[It probably will, especially if people have bad habits of not return books to the library…
But then you can’t walk on the floor and then step on items and that hurts.] You don’t know? Then…you just take them and return them? [An honor system?]
[The study is already a mess of tomes and equipment. Their bedroom might be next...
If it keeps people out, she has more peace and quiet! Theoretically, at least.] I guess you can return them if you want, but that seems like a pain to me.
[Yes, the bedroom may become Estelle’s personal library. At least her side of it. She’ll keep it organized though.
But peace and quiet is always nice when trying to read a book. Perhaps they could both keep their room a quiet zone, or set times for quiet time for reading and researching.] You don’t return books to the library? [And a bit of a disapproving look appears on Estelle’s face as she lightly scolds her friend.] Rita, you need to return them, or else others won’t get to read what you took! It’s also stealing, since those books technically belong to them – in fact they belong to everyone!
[One organized roommate and one messy one--but at least they both like books.
Rita is more than okay with letting Estelle read whenever she wants to, though she doesn't keep any kind of schedule herself. At the scolding, she blinks, and waves it off.] It's not like anyone else around here is gonna read those ones, Estelle. Besides, I need them as reference material sometimes.
[And smiling Rita always makes Estelle's smile even wider!
And upon being told the which building was the library, she immediately ran off to go inside it, only to start looking through the books. Though the first one she grabbed and opened kept her attention well enough. The genre being 'science-fiction' and about being able to travel in to space.]
Estelle- [She really should've expected her friend to run off, but it's still half a second before Rita dashes after her. At least the library's not dangerous...
Taking note of the book Estelle's reading as she follows, Rita glances around at the other, similar shelves surrounding them.]

Rita doesn't give it any thought. Organization is overrated.] This is the City. It probably organizes itself no matter where you put them.
♥♥♥
Organization is wonderful and makes finding things easier!] So, do the books magically return to the library once their due?

Maybe someone else is interested in researching the same things that you are! It would be unfair to them that you are keeping those books.
♥♥♥
Well--yeah, but...It's not like the library isn't full of other books just like them.
♥♥♥
[When it comes to books and libraries, Estelle has a bit of an opinion that she openly expresses.]
♥♥♥
[That she does, and Rita finally gives in. Sort of.]
♥♥♥
[In other words, Rita is not getting out of returning her long overdue books.]
♥♥♥
[Whoops...D-distraction?!]
A-anyway, we're almost there!
♥♥♥
Oh, are we?
[And scolding Estelle turns into excited Estelle.]
♥♥♥
Yeah, it's right over there.
[And she points to the large building ahead of them, a huge place that must be holding hundreds of thousands of books.]
