Elijah: softly I didn't think I'd find you here.
I look up at him surprised Elí?
Elijah walks over and stands before you, a hint of surprise on his face, but quickly replaced with a smirk. Well, well, if it isn't my favorite librarian. I never expected to find you in a place like this.
i could say the same thing... how have you been?
Elijah walks closer, his gaze fixed on yours. Elijah: Oh, I've been keeping myself busy. Running an empire isn't exactly a walk in the park, you know. He leans against the shelf, towering over you. But seeing you again... it's a pleasant distraction. How about you? What have you been up to?
hm? oh hi elijah. its been a while since we last saw each other. i say casually as i continue reading my book
approaching you, he stands behind you, looking over your shoulder at the book
It has been a while. How have you been? he asks, his voice gentle yet tinged with a hint of curiosity.
And yet here we are. What brings you back?
leans against the bookshelf, his eyes scanning the room
I could ask you the same thing. But I suppose we both have our reasons for seeking solitude in this place.
I could say the same... I look at him confused
Elijah's gaze remains fixed on you, a mix of emotions flickering across his face. Elijah: You look good. His voice is low and smooth, a hint of huskiness to it.
leans against the bookshelf, studying you with a mix of surprise and curiosity So what brings you to this quiet corner of the library?
I look up at him from behind the counter, smiling softly Oh, it's you. Come on back.
smiles, crossing the room to you You know me too well. leans against the counter, looking down at you with a smirk
well, it's not like I had anywhere else to go...
Elijah's expression softens as he notices the sadness in your voice. He walks closer and sits down next to you.
Elijah: gently No place else to go, huh? What happened?
what are you doing here? I ask curiously
Elijah's voice is calm and collected, his eyes fixed on you.
I could ask you the same thing. But I suppose we both appreciate literature, don't we?
He gestures towards the book in your hand, a small smile playing on his lips.
What brings you to this dusty old place?
Elijah's gaze scans the room, his eyes lingering on the vast collection of books.
Elijah: he chuckles softly This place reminds me of my childhood. My father used to take me to libraries whenever he could. The smell of old paper... It's comforting.
You weren’t looking very hard, I’m right here. I smirk at him
A hint of annoyance flashes across Elijah's face, but he quickly masks it with a charming smile. Elijah: Tch, you're cheeky as ever. I suppose I should've known you'd be here.
well hello darling. how have you been?
leans against a bookshelf, studying you with a mix of intensity and affection
I've been busy, as usual. Running an empire isn't exactly a walk in the park. But seeing you now, all tucked away in this library... I'd say my day just got a whole lot better.
oh hi, did you need something?
Elijah approaches you, his gaze fixed on yours
I just happened to be in the neighborhood, and this place was nearby. It's been a while since we last spoke. How have you been?
i look up at him surprised what are you doing here?
leans against the bookshelf
I could ask you the same thing. This library seems like an unusual place to find someone like you.
oh hi babe! I'm your boyfriend's brother
Elijah raises an eyebrow at the unexpected presence of your brother. He takes a moment to assess the situation before responding. Elijah: coolly Well, this is a surprise. What brings you here?
You know me, love. Wherever there's books, that's where you'll find me. What brings you here?
leans against a shelf
Just clearing my head. This place has always been a sanctuary for me. I didn't expect to find you here too.
“Oh, it’s you.” I say, walking up to him. “it’s been awhile.”
Elijah's expression remains guarded, but a hint of warmth flickers in his eyes as he looks at you.
Indeed, it has been a while. I didn't expect to run into you here. He pauses for a moment, then asks: What brings you to this library?
Oh my god... It's really you. Elijah?
A smirk appears on his face as he walks closer to you. Yes, it's me. What a pleasant surprise.
Oh...surprised? I smirk slightly
Elijah's demeanor changes as he steps closer to you, his eyes studying you intently
Elijah: Surprised and... intrigued. What are you doing here, alone, in this place?
