Research!

After finding her way to Milliways again, Iris finally learned about the rooms upstairs.

And there is a library!









A copy of Aesop's Fables gets produced for Iris, and is read several times over with great interest and confusion (at times), before really thinking about the opportunities.

"...Where could I find a scroll on...genetics?"

The book provided by the library engrosses Iris for quite some time - she gives up the attention required to hide her wings from view after the first hour.

"Well, if you ever see me studying or working too much then I give you permission to make me stop. Not quite perfect but close to it."
balancingminds: (pained listen)

"I hope in time that won't have to be true. Here I don't have to hide as much,"

That is a step forward.

"No, I don't. I've never done what we just did with anyone before,"

He's done smaller versions, sharing a moment or a projection but not that scale before.

He reaches his hand up to touch her hair,

"You took me upon a rainbow and have shown me how you see the world. More than that I can't imagine."
balancingminds: (not laughing)

"I do, but have I answered yours properly?"

His can wait because he likes her perspective on his world.

"Good. Then tell me what you've been doing since we last spoke. As I don't know what your day to day world looks like."
balancingminds: (half face listening)

"Was it a nice visit?"

He's curious about the relationships between the gods as opposed to just the stories about them.
balancingminds: (intent listening close up)

[personal profile] balancingminds 2012-04-26 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
The movement makes him smile as he leans his face towards her so her fingers rest on his temple.

Then he focuses and he finds the image and feeling she presents to him, "Oh yes."
balancingminds: (side glance)

"Is there any reason he wouldn't be able to?"

He knows that while he knows most of his limits, there are still things he can always learn. Gods abilities seem slightly more set but its hard to tell. Nothing in Iris' world is quite the same as what the stories say.
balancingminds: (Listening and confused)

"Yet it sounds like he does look for you,"

Charles' loved his parents but they were apart in their own ways.

[personal profile] balancingminds 2012-04-26 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
"No, of course not. Do you know what each new day will hold as I do or does it depend on where you're called?"

He has schedules that he has to follow and deadlines to meet.
balancingminds: (worn out)

When she fidgets, he gently strokes her hair, "I imagine those are rarely pleasant messages."
balancingminds: (half face listening)

[personal profile] balancingminds 2012-04-27 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
He leans across the small distance between them to kiss her cheek,

"No, I imagine they couldn't find anyone as trustworthy or loyal as you."
