Welcome to Gaia! ::

Krait stared up at the massive gothic spires and stood still, his mouth agape. He didn't even dart his tongue out to taste... He just stood, immobile and terrified...
I am so small.... The little sea snake thought to himself.
After a long and quiet time of standing and staring at the Library doors, Krait finally pushed himself forward and made to enter the building.
He reached the door handle after a few tries, and found he could only get a grip on it if he stood on the very toe-tips of his boots. Up there on the ends on his boot toes, Krait had no strength at all and pulled uselessly at the door.
He pouted and frown. What if he couldn't get in? There'd be no new books to read!
A sad thought entered Krait's head. What if he wasn't allowed in the library? All he wanted was to read! Wasn't he allowed?
Krait's throat made a small whine of sadness. While he pondered and wondered, he forgot to pay attention to his extremities, and his hands were wringing each other, and his toes scuffing the stone of the top step. His tail on the other hand snaked forward and the rudder-blade on the end of it wrapped itself around the handle of the great doors and pulled.
With an awesome sound and a click, the great door eased open.
Krait peered in, in awe and in wonder.

You're lost, just admit it.. Pterois turned the corner of another long, high bookshelf, trying to peer between books as she walked. She remembered there had been like a desk thing at the entrance with a construct behind it but she had left that behind about 1/2 hour ago. Letting out another little sigh she moved faster, becoming a little afraid. And then; she turned another corner and let out a bigger sigh, of relief this time.
'Damn, its like a maze..' she twisted, looking again at the shelves and that was when she noticed the boy.
'Hey!' she called, going over to him.

Pterois tilted her head, watching the way the boy was clung to the bookshelf.
'If you let go, I don't believe that the shelf will go anywhere,' she teased a little, grinning at Krait.
'I'm Pterois. It's nice to meet you...?'

Pterois blinked, tilting her head a little as the end of her name gained a few letters. He seemed shy enough, and he certainly was blushing well, so she thought she wouldnt mention it and embarrass him further.
'Hello Krait. I am glad I've run into you! I've only been lucky enough to meet one other of our kind, and I was worried I wouldnt see anyone else.' she smiled encouragingly at the boy.
'You been here before then, like the books? I got lost in here before I saw you, all these shelves! Like a maze.' she fell quiet, wondering if Krait would speak again.

It was really difficult not to comment on the boys lisp. She wouldnt do it because it was mean, but because it sounded funny.
'I don't have any books. Well that's not completely true, I have the book that my diary is in, but well that's not so much a story type book.' she grinned.
'Well I think we all feel small aroud this place.' Pterois commented.
'It's almost like. Like it was built for much larger people. Have you met any one else besides me then?' she suddenly asked.

Keshi meets up with the Library Construct and asks" May I look at the books?" The construct looks down on her and nods it's head and points to Keshi's shoes.

Keshi blushes and steps out of her shoes. "So sorry..I'm so very sorry." Keshi says as she turns a bright shade of pink.

The construct again nods it head and then turns to it's work in the library.

Still bright pink in the cheeks Keshi picks up her shoes and decides to look around. "Hmmm I wonder how long it will take to look at all these books giggle." she says to herself as she tiptoes on the cold stone floor.

'I met a spider boy called Kyle,' Pterois said.
'Olivia huh? At least now I know there are other girls here.' she chuckled.
'I havent really thought about it, I guess I only came here because I was bored back in my room, and I've already been swimming this morning so I thought I'd go exploring some more.'
She smiled at Krait.
'But, I mean if you wanna show me some good books maybe I'll like them as much as you,' and she turned another winning smile on the boy.
