[Hope you like strange doctors crashing at the library, because that's what you're going to get. Now, it's true that the status of literature Out West wasn't particularly endangered. If you made friends with the right people, namely the Followers of the Apocalypse, you could even get a nice collection of hardly burned Classics going. Still, finding this many books in one place -- enough for there to be copies -- well, that's something else entirely.
Besides, maybe if he spends an afternoon (or two or three or four--) reading, he won't have time to focus on the quiet in the streets of... wherever this is. It's familiar enough, really. The lights are on, and whoever's at home, well, they're keeping them lit for a reason.
So it's not as distracting as he hoped. There are worse things, he supposes. Most of them, you don't have to read a book to find.
Well. At least he doesn't.
There's a small pile of books on the table. Classics, mainly. You could call it filling in the gaps. Ovid, Livy, Virgil, Cicero, and Horace. He takes his time with them, and if he looks up, it's probably because of someone walking in.
Admittedly, they may have to speak up to get his attention.]
