Turning Pages | Nine + Lily
For someone with as little experience in people as Nine have, books were a treasure trove of knowledge. Lifetimes passes in his eyes, with each turn of a page, they expose him to things he had never even imagined.
His morning wandering led him into this room, a small treasure trove of books. Shelves that looked to be slowly filling up, a library forming on a ship filled with heathens and misfits.
It has been some time since then, his own additions now sitting on once empty shelves. It is far from becoming one of the larger libraries on the core planets, yet it has it’s own charm. He sat on the ground, legs crossed, his eyes moving with the words on the page.
His companion, the one who started this all, laid on the bed across him, lost in her own book. There was a comfortable silence lingering in the small room, the only sound breaking the silence; the turning of pages.
He froze, finger lingering on the page.
“How did the redhead end up with the smart one? Are you supportive of this?”
