She would sit with him, but she's worried that once she got down she was never getting up again. Instead he leaned over, hands on her knees and sucked in a breath to hold. Let it out and sighed, trying to slow her heart rate and breathing.
"Books. From books, I think. Outer edges of the library. They tell us to be careful out there. Creatures from books, I think. I've only heard it in passing. I kind of showed up here and ended up on an outing before I got to settle in." She huffed again, backing up into a wall and leaning on it, head down a bit. Oh gosh.
"Never... seen them in so close. They don't come that close in. Something must be attracting them or scaring them in. Or... invading. I don't know. Someone else mentioned it. That things were weird. the library was wrong. Maybe that's it."
