The thin slanting light of a winter midafternoon is sifting in through the high windows as two figures step into the main room of the Library of the New Watchers' Council: a vast round vaulted space lined with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves.

Andrew's seen it before; he's looking at Nita, grinning in anticipation of her reaction.

"Yeah."

She looks around at the stacks, her grin softening, and then down at him.

"Andrew -- this is fantastic. Really. Thank you."

He beams back. "Anytime. And hey, I owe you for that other trip, so ... yeah."

[nita_callahan]

"What, the Moon? Nah, you didn't owe me anything for that. But I'll accept this as not-a-repayment-because-you-don't-owe-me-anything."

That gets a laugh, as Andrew pushes back his chair and stands up.

(A low laugh. They are still in the library.)

"That'll work," he says, turning to lead her towards the door.
