Aurora moved out of the cave and to the edge of the city, there she found a building where she was able to buy an two floor building. The bottom floor, she opened a small book shop, she ordered many books on different subjects and filled the shelves. Upstairs, there was a very small apartment, one bedroom, bathroom, and tiny kitchen. It was enough for Aurora for now, it wasn't like she had found that special someone yet to start a family with.

Legato walked from the little bobba tea shop he frequented and walked down the sidewalk looking at the different stores. The one looked new... A small book store. The shop hadn't been here the last time he'd come this way.. Had it? Shaking his head some, he decided to walk in and check out their selection on music. If nothing else, he could bring his mother a new piece to learn.

Aurora smiled as she heard someone enter the book shop, she popped her head up from behind a pile of dusty old books she hadn't put on the shelf yet and said "Hello there, if you need any help let me know" The shop had both old and new books, some old and dusty and others new with fresh clean covers. The shop was fairly well organized except for the rare treasure book that was miss shelved that Aurora had forgotten she had even bought to sell.

With a smile and a nod, he walked further into the store. "Where's your selection on music?" Already his eyes were scanning the tops of shelves looking for some indication of where things might be. Finally stopping, his eyes rested on the woman peeking out from behind the stack of books. "I'm looking for books on music theory and other such useful things."

Aurora stopped a thought a moment as she looked at the male noodle before her, and then she said "Depends are you looking for a modern book or a classic out of print book??" She said gesturing to the clean shelf with the modern up to date music theory books in hard back and then to the large old books some leather bound sitting on another shelf.

He looked to the wall of books and a smile crawled across his face. Music.. this was his drive.. "I think I'd like to peruse them both." He gave a nod of his head as he made his way over to the books she'd pointed out. "Thank you for your help." He flashed her yet another smile before reaching out and gently lifting a book from the shelf. Thumbing through it a bit, he tucked it under his arm before making his way to some of the older books repeating the process with a few other books. He lingered as he looked over one one the older books. This one would definitely help him with something. Closing the book, he tucked it under his arm with a few of the others he'd been looking at. Looking around, he looked to see if the woman was still around. "Excuse me.. Miss?"

Aurora smiled back at him then she went back to cleaning up the old books, then she popped back up and dusted herself off when she heard him speak. "Oh I'm sorry you can call me Aurora" she said in a friendly tone "Did you find everything you need??"

"Miss Aurora it is then..." He smiled before nodding. "I found everything so far very well. Do you perhaps happen to have a section for Music books? Like sheet music just.. a mass collection combined? I know most book stores don't, saving that sort of thing for a music shop.. but.. I figure it's worth a shot in the dark."

Aurora laughed softly and shook her head this fellow was so sweet and polite, she bet he held open door as well. She smiled and then went back to the matter at hand "Again wonder or old fashion?? I have this section with modern books of sheet music and another in the back with older rare collections of sheet music that must be carefully handled so they aren't damaged, the pages are delicate, I also have some of a mid range of old sheet music but less risk of falling apart" She said nodding "If there is anything you can't find let me know and I can try to find it for you" She said warmly

He looked in the direction she spoke. "Ah... I see" He offered her another smile. "I'm Legato. If you wouldn't mind.. I'd like to see the rares collections.. It's a gift for some one.. And if you could suggest some more classical or modern leaning classical pieces like you'd find in a musical?"

Aurora smiled and nodded "Welcome to my shop Legato, I'm Aurora, please follow me" she lead him to the back of the shop to a special room, that was made for housing old paper. She handed him a pair of gloves. "Some of these are delicate so please be gentle" Then she pulled out a classical ballet book of music to show him, then a more modern old broad way musical book of music. "Can you describe better what you might be looking for??"

Putting the gloves on, he delicately scanned through the ballet's sheet music. This one wasn't quite what his mother would like. The music was nice, had a good flow. As he looked it over he could hear each and every note in his mind. "This one's quite lovely.. but I don't think it is quite what I'm looking for. Maybe something with lyrics? Although I suppose my sister might like this one.. perhaps to play..." He seemed to think about it a moment. "If not her than maybe some one else.." Setting the book aside carefully, he looked over the second. "I think this one might do well for my other sister." Carefully he closed the collection of music and nodded. "Classical music would be another genera.. though the old Broadway would likely be a good gift for my mother. I think, I'll take both of these.. and this one too." He reached out and gently pulled an old book from the shelf.

Aurora smiled "Good choices you certainly have good taste in music and books" she said warmly, "Alright if you'll follow me out front I'll get you ringed up, unless you were looking for something else??" She put the books in special cases for travel and protection, with a sheet on protection and care, to avoid damage.

"I think these five books should be enough." He paused a moment. "Is there any way you could possibly wrap the collectors books up separately? They're gifts for my sisters and mother. So I'd like them to be... a surprise." He smiled broadly. Following her to the front, he laid the music theory books on the counter and waited to see the total. "Thank you for your help today miss Aurora."

Aurora smiled and took the books to the front and went to wrap the special books carefully. The paper was simple clean parchment type paper, with little flowers all over it. "Your welcome Mr. Legato" she said politely since he called her miss again, she figured it was only right to be polite in turn. ((Humm not sure where else to go with this right now >.> ))
