Oh, good! *Maggie laughs a little* Mayhap next time we'd better try te find a ladder, though.
Let's see now . . . *She looks down at the book then, curious, and furrows her brow in concetration as she works to put the letters together in her mind to read the cover*

*Maggie lifts her gaze back to him, and explains* Aye, 'tis only that I'm still learning how te read. I know all the letters now, but I'm na very good yet at figuring out which words they make, together.

*Maggie nods, climbing the rest of the way to her feet, and lets him lead her by the hand, telling him* There are some tables and chairs on the other side of these shelves here.

You'll see...
*drawing her through the aisles, he leads her further into the library until he stops in front of a self-contained enclosure. Sitting on its own in the middle of the high ceilinged library, it does look a bit like a fortress*
It's my castle... *Kyle beams* Come inside, I'll show you...

*Still letting him lead, she follows him inside*

*Kyle leads her inside the isolation room* It's great cause... see? *he shows her the door latch* The lock's on the inside... so no one can come in and find you when you... when you want to hide.
*he walks into the study room. It isn't very large, but there's a little study desk and a comfy looking futon. There's a stash of books and comics peeking precariously out from under the furon*
What do you think?
