Adventures had always taken people to exotic locations, all over the world and through portals to new worlds and so on and so forth. A library? That sounds like that would be fun, being able to find texts so old that the dust has become a relic after the book has.
"Libraries and aliens... that sounds like it was a blast! You never made it to the library then? That is unfortunate! Almost an end game c**k block if you ask me."

"So never married? Well I will say, it is admirable that you are raising two kids and running a business on the side. That is amazing and something you never see these days. Don't let life get you down, look at what you have accomplished and realize that at the end of the day, you are still doing better than most Gaians."
It was the truth and 100% of it.

"Fighting lessons, you could come join us down at the Club some day if you have time. We do offer a babysitting service which is free for Club members. I would just file you as a 'date' and you would avoid the steep fee we charge, plus your training would be free as well. Have you ever seen a bear in real life? Have you ever seen a bear in real life with a top hat? Well, if you go, you will see that, it is a thing we have on staff."
And there he went, his drink had finally taken him, all bets are off. The Dapper Way is starting to look a bit like a wet noodle snaking across an open table. This is going to be a hard path to keep walking.
