It takes a good hour, but you manage to find the most relevant books. Books on engines, materials, sowing, and even one on physiology and combat arts- though nothing will beat those violent videos you have from Cheryl's Dad's collection. These are going to be useful! You'll take these back to the garage and take notes from them before you bring them back. The library is pretty strict on getting books back- and you certainly don't want to pay a fee with your limited UBI- so you'll need to be coming here often to check out books and return them. They also have a strict limit on how many books you can take out at once- so you'll need to really pick what you need.
Once you find the books, you go looking for the librarian to help check you out- before she finds you. She is holding a thick purple book in her hands, smiling.
“Oh heyyy! Glad I caught you before you left.”
<span class="mu-r">”Can you guide me to the checkout counter?”</span>
“Oh yeah! You just scan them at the kiosk but... hold on. I really think you should check out this one.”
<span class="mu-r">”Hmm?”</span>
“It's a fantasy book. It's my <span class="mu-i">favorite</span>- and it's got everything. Magic, adventure, romance- I'm schure you'll love it!”
You breathe deep. She's just trying to be nice- though you regret more and more sharing your more “nerd” hobbies with a “fellow nerd”. You glance down at the rather intimidating novel before reading... Written by <span class="mu-i">Nancy</span> Redhurn. Oh God. She wrote this, didn't she? She's looking at you with doe like eyes- hoping to finally find someone else who reads these dusty old novels like her...
Truthfully, if you had balls, you would have just brushed her off already. But you don't want to hurt her feelings. She seems really nice- and enthusiastic to help you. That could be big- the library has some restricted books on really important topics- things like air-filtration systems, environmental sustainability, historical documents- things that you can't check out or access without special permissions. Plus, you figure you're going to be coming back here a lot for research- and she works here- it's going to be awkward to deny her. But you really can't spare any of your limited time- or more importantly- your booklimit- to these shenanigans. Plus- you don't <span class="mu-i">actually</span> want to read this shit. You've got more <span class="mu-i">important</span> things to do with your time now.
What are you going to do?
>Put her down gently
>Be nice and accept
