One would think working in the library, as she did, that it would be a common event in seeing someone’s reaction like this when they found the information they needed, but alas it seemed to often be the opposite. It made her smile inside, made her feel important, to see someone who was so passionate about their work and the research of it.
“You are welcome,” she responded easily to the females comment. “As for the books feel free to keep them for a few days longer, I will mark it in our records that they are to be kept out as such. As long as you return them we have no problem with it.
“Is there anything else I can do for you at the moment?” She asked. She could spare a few more minutes for the female before she would need to go and see to the other patrons that had begun to wander in.

She nodded her head a few times, noticing a few other creatures milling about, some looking shyly confused and obviously in need of the librarian's help. "Go ahead, I'll just read over these again while you're busy. However, when things die down, would you mind helping me find any others by this author or just other books related to these? I never did get around to finishing that big pile so I'm sure I missed some good ones." She was thinking out loud, but she knew the mouse would help her if she had the time. So far this seemed to be a small rush of people, so it shouldn't take more than 30 minutes she imagined.
As she opened the female author's book, her eyes kept drifting to the map. 'No, it's better to wait a while. Wouldn't want to wake her up and get a nasty kick out the door. Besides, there are still things to be done.' She decided to herself, flipping the piece of paper over to avoid temptation. The few diagrams in the book were helpful, but the ink was worn and smudged, the book had probably gotten wet once or twice. It would be so much more helpful when she could actually get a step-by-step up to date guide. Though, this was assuming the author was willing to spend the time of day on her. Besaba had this funny feeling that she would, however...
Smiling to herself, she pawed through her pack for a flourescent red phial which moved oddly like molten lava. Glancing under the top, she made sure her modified stopper was still doing it's work, keeping the entire thing from shattering and consuming every living tissue in sight. This one was the bully of the playground, a sharp contrat to the blue-green murky patch which sat in a covered disk, it shimmered eerily rather than glowing, and it would have worked well except the stupid thing just wouldn't properly attach to the tissues she'd tried it on. The red substance made a protective shell that moved with the organs she tried it on... but it brutally melted them after a while or exploded them, both had happened twice. The blue-green substance turned into a jewel-like shell... except it had no flexibility, and though it didn't seem to cause fatalities, it always ended up shattering.
Ah well, with any luck, maybe the author was a fellow Corvistowne...

“That I can do,” she responded to the female’s request with a nod. “As soon as I have a free moment I would be more then glad to help you out. Good luck in your research until then.” She said in parting.
Heading over to the other patrons who stood about needing various help, some just needing know where a section was located and others a little more advanced into a specific book or subject. It took her a little longer then she had first expected to make her way through the patrons and close to an hour later, her other co-worker having shown up as well, she made her way back over to the female.
“Sorry for having to make you wait so long. I have a few free moments, what can I do to help?” She asked as she took a seat in the chair from before, having forgotten what exactly the female needed help with over the time she had been busy.

She waited until the mouse came back and visibly perked. "Ah, I was hoping you could find some books by this author, or similar to these, from the pile I was unable to go to?" She'd successfully re-read through all of the important parts and was now hungry to get anything else she could before heading to the author's house. She mentally stabbed a lost looking feline with her eyes, noticing how the feline decided to go try and find the book on her own with satisfaction. Besaba's competitive spirit could not be stilled, even for those who were really not worth her time.
"You seem busy today, I should be leaving very soon anyway, people are best bothered when they're just waking up, you know." She smirked dryly, humour? How very unusual for Besaba, she must have been in good spirits indeed. And she was. Today was the mark of a new start... or an old continuation, you know, either way you looked at it, really. If she took off in 25 minutes, she could be there for 8:00 or maybe 8:30, anyone who slept in past then was crazy, and wasting a perfect day. Authors were known for running on little sleep, so she figured she'd have no problem.

“If you are needing to leave soon, you can leave a list or description of what exactly it is that you are trying to find and I can look up the books that would most likely be useful to you, to save you time. The next time you come back, by lunch for sure, I can have a list of them ready for you so all you would have to do is pull them off the shelf.”
She was not sure if she would agree with the female on the option of it being better to bug someone when they were fist waking up or not. While it was true she was a morning person, she had learnt, quite painfully, that a majority of people were not.
“It does seem a little busy in here, I apologize. I am sorry that I can not help you much at the current moment.”

Nodding her head, she took a piece of paper out of her bag and began to write down what she was looking for. Just a basic description of the medical procedures, and the names of the authors who were confirmed as being alive. That was important, the ability to go harass them in person about their knowledge.
"That is just perfect, thank you for all your help. I'll be out of your hair now, it looks like some people need to practice a little patience..." She harrumphed at this, looking out across a hallway of books where a few confused souls began to mill about, looking impatient.
"Indeed. Don't apologise, you appear to be very understaffed for a day like today." That wasn't meant as an insult, but the female should probably consider hiring an assistant sometime in the future if days like this one happened often. She handed the mouse her piece of paper and quickly stuffed everything back in her bag before standing up.
"See you in a few hours, then." She purred merrily, and headed off towards the door.
-----
Once outside, it took her several minutes to get her bearings on where she would be going according to the map. Once she figured it out, she drew a mental line across a particular route which looked a bit long for her liking, but she knew some of the area, so it would probably take less time than the shorter route, as she would probably get lost. Trotting down the stairs, she began to head straight onto a wide path through a lot of tall buildings pressed together to conserve space.
Well, at least she was getting her daily exercise.

((Actually, do you want to end the thread here? My replies seem have been coming slow recently T _ T and that seems like a perfect place to finish the thread. I am not sure that Idril has much more to say < < )
