Nord: holding up a dusty, leather-bound book Look what I found at Nordstrom Rack! Can you believe it?!
Holy crap, that's amazing! What is it?
grinning It's a first edition of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley! Can you believe it? I stumbled upon it tucked away in a corner of the bookstore!
Wow, that's incredible! You've got quite the eye for rare finds, Nord.
jumps up and down excitedly Thanks! I've always had a knack for finding hidden gems. But this one takes the cake!
I bet it does. So, what's next? Do you have any plans for this vintage treasure?
holds the book closer to their chest Oh, you bet I do!
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Alright, I'm curious. What's the plan then, book wizard?
puts on a pair of glasses and starts flipping through the pages First things first, I'm gonna have to give this baby a good ol' cleaning.
chuckles A good cleaning, huh? Any special techniques or just a trip to the sink?
grins mischievously Oh no, my friend! This book needs a full-on spa day!
laughs A spa day? For a book? That's a new one.
starts gathering supplies: soft cloths, gentle soaps, and a hair dryer Trust me, this book has earned the royal treatment!
Ah, alright then. Give it the works, book doctor!
begins carefully washing the pages with a soft soap, gently scrubbing away any dirt or stains
Looks like you're really invested in this spa day, huh?
laughs You have no idea! Watching this book come back to life is like giving it a second chance at happiness!
smiles That's... oddly charming. So, after the spa day, what's next?
dries the book with a soft cloth, carefully examining each page Next, I'm gonna add some protective sleeves to keep these delicate pages safe.
nods Protective sleeves, got it. And after that?
pauses dramatically Well, after that... it's time to find the perfect display case!
grins A display case, huh? Where are we gonna put this bad boy?
stands up and surveys the room Why, right here, of course! points to a large, ornate display case in the corner
chuckles Perfect spot, Nord. Now, let's see this masterpiece displayed properly.
rushes over to the display case and begins arranging the cleaned and protected book There we go!
smiling It looks great, Nord. You really turned that book into a star.

smirks A crown, huh? You're really getting into character, Nord. So, what's next?
claps their hands together Next, we celebrate! Let's throw a book-themed party and invite all our friends!
laughs A book-themed party? That sounds unique. What's the plan?
pulls out a notebook and starts jotting down ideas We'll have different stations set up, each one representing a different genre: mystery, sci-fi, romance, and more!
raising an eyebrow Mystery, sci-fi, romance... You planning on covering all bases, Nord?
laughs Oh, you bet! I want this party to be the ultimate literary adventure!
smirks An ultimate literary adventure, huh? Sounds like one hell of a party. Alright, Nord, let's get this show on the road.
grabs a stack of colorful decorations and starts scattering them around the room Balloons, streamers, and maybe even some cardboard cutouts of famous authors! We'll transform this place into a literary wonderland!
laughs A literary wonderland, huh? You're really going all out. And what about food? Any book-inspired dishes on the menu?
holding up a tray of tea cups Of course! We'll have "The Great Gatsby's Gilded Age Punch" and "Alice in Wonderland's Mad Hatter Muffins"!

laughs Well, I aim to please! But wait, there's more! We'll also have a "Sherlock Holmes' Detective Scavenger Hunt" and a "Harry Potter's Magic Trivia Contest"!
grinning A magic trivia contest, huh? Alright, Nord, you've got me hooked. What's the grand prize for the winner?
pulls out a small golden envelope Why, it's a secret treasure map that leads to a hidden stash of rare books, of course!
chuckles A treasure map, huh? Now you're speaking my language, Nord. This party's gonna be epic.
claps their hands together That's the spirit, Watson! Let's get this party started and make it a night to remember!
smirks Let's do this, Nord. Time to unleash your inner Sherlock and Harry Potter.
grabs a megaphone and starts blasting out announcements Attention all detectives and wizards!
laughs Alright, everyone! Listen up! The ultimate literary adventure starts now!
runs over to the scavenger hunt station and sets up various challenges Alright, detectives, your first clue is hidden in plain sight. Find the Sherlock Holmes bust and uncover the next clue!
