there’s a strange sort of air from the guy, adam finds himself thinking, a sort of false stillness. is that it? he finds it difficult to put his finger on. like trying to fish a shell fragment out of a raw egg. [break][break] “i wouldn’t have guessed that, but it’s a lot quieter in here than i would’ve thought, so who knows?” he’s watching, faint confusion drawing his brows together, eyes following each movement. the easy economy of the other man’s movement is something that definitely does not echo in adam’s own body language, his constantly shifting weight and his fingertips tapping and plucking at the leather strap of his satchel. [break][break] there’s a palpable pause, an intensified moment of confusion, as he processes the not-really-a-request and weighs it for a fraction of a second. on one hand, what, and on the other, they can get someone to take a closer look. he’s looking at the pile of books growing on the floor, scanning the titles with quick eyes, and - [break][break] “the fact you have a whole section for this,” he begins, pulling the bag off his shoulder and starting to shed the damp coat, “is sort of wild, i’m not gonna lie, but i guess i get it.” the coat is folded once and dropped on the floor, away from the shelves, and he sinks to his knees in the indicated spot. “i have a friend who is super into this sort of thing, he’d go nuts in here.” [break][break] it takes a few seconds of looking at the remaining organisation of the shelf, one fingertip trailing over the tops of the out-turned spines, before he parts a couple of them with a deft movement to slide one of the removed titles into the new gap. “this must take forever if you don’t stay on it.” [newclass=.APwrapper]width:350px;border:1px solid #222;background-color:#151515;[/newclass][newclass=.APtop]height:80px;background-color:#191919;[/newclass][newclass=.APtri]position:absolute;height: 0px;width: 0px;border-top: solid 40px #191919;border-left: solid 175px transparent;border-right: solid 175px transparent;z-index: 0;margin-top:-100px;[/newclass][newclass=.APicon]height:100px;width:100px;[/newclass][newclass=.APicon img]height:90px;width:90px;border-radius:100%;position:relative;z-index:999;margin:-5px 0px 0px 0px;filter: grayscale(100%) contrast(100%);[/newclass][newclass=.APtext]font:500 11px/12px 'Roboto';text-align:justify;padding:50px;color:#aaa;margin-top:-25px;margin-bottom:20px;[/newclass][newclass=.APtag]display: inline-block;margin: -60px 0px 0px 50px;background-color: #181818;border:1px solid #222;padding: 8px 15px;font: 600 8px/10px 'Roboto';color: #aaa;border-radius: 5px;text-align:center;float:left;[/newclass][newclass=.APpulse1]margin-top:-120px;display: block;width: 120px;height: 120px;border-radius: 50%;background: #111;cursor: pointer;box-shadow: 0 0 0 rgba(0,0,0,0);position:relative;z-index;999;[/newclass][newclass=.APpulse:hover]animation: none;[/newclass]

[nospaces] [attr="class","APwrapper"] [attr="class","APtop"] [attr="class","APicon"] [attr="class","APtri"] [attr="class","APpulse1"] [attr="class","APtext"] he is, in a word, lost. [break][break] not in any sort of bullshit metaphorical way, obviously, but it’s pretty much his luck that he’s ducked into the only building in orario that seems exempt from the laws of the material plane. he’s pretty sure he’s managed to go in circles three times now. [break][break] the sound of the rain is a faraway sort of sound in the oppressive hush of the library, a soft sibilant thrum beyond the walls, and it’s doing a lot to ratchet the tension higher and higher in adam’s narrow shoulders. while he’s fairly certain the cloaked figure that has been tailing him for the past hour hasn’t come inside, he’s not exactly keen to go out and check if she’s still there. [break][break] that being said, the weight in his bag seems to be getting heavier and heavier for every moment it’s not safely hidden under the floorboards at home. still, to do said check for lurking maybe-murderers or find someone who might be able to help him, he’d have to first find the exit. right now, it’s just books, books, and more books. [break][break] is this a dead end? from the ceiling it looks nowhere near a wall. what is even- [break][break] he visibly starts at the voice, turning rapidly in a flap of damp canvas coat. a curl of wet hair flops down into his eyes, leaving water droplets on the inside of his glasses. “you could say that, yeah,” he replies quickly, one hand loose-fingered on the strap of the satchel strung across his body. [break][break] “do you work here?” the guy’s general vibe kind of implies it, but most librarians don’t look like they’ve lost fights with the world’s buffest minotaur. “i was told there’s someone around here that can, uh. appraise an antique book i have, but the directions were pretty trash. i haven’t seen any bookstores here, mostly just... whorehouses.” [newclass=.APwrapper]width:350px;border:1px solid #222;background-color:#151515;[/newclass][newclass=.APtop]height:80px;background-color:#191919;[/newclass][newclass=.APtri]position:absolute;height: 0px;width: 0px;border-top: solid 40px #191919;border-left: solid 175px transparent;border-right: solid 175px transparent;z-index: 0;margin-top:-100px;[/newclass][newclass=.APicon]height:100px;width:100px;[/newclass][newclass=.APicon img]height:90px;width:90px;border-radius:100%;position:relative;z-index:999;margin:-5px 0px 0px 0px;filter: grayscale(100%) contrast(100%);[/newclass][newclass=.APtext]font:500 11px/12px 'Roboto';text-align:justify;padding:50px;color:#aaa;margin-top:-25px;margin-bottom:20px;[/newclass][newclass=.APtag]display: inline-block;margin: -60px 0px 0px 50px;background-color: #181818;border:1px solid #222;padding: 8px 15px;font: 600 8px/10px 'Roboto';color: #aaa;border-radius: 5px;text-align:center;float:left;[/newclass][newclass=.APpulse1]margin-top:-120px;display: block;width: 120px;height: 120px;border-radius: 50%;background: #111;cursor: pointer;box-shadow: 0 0 0 rgba(0,0,0,0);position:relative;z-index;999;[/newclass][newclass=.APpulse:hover]animation: none;[/newclass]

nyarlathotep TRULY A QUESTION FOR THE AGES. adam is mostly okay with it just now but at this point he isn't being gently coerced into extra eyes or becoming part mollusc so that could change
legit tho he would be so mad. SO MAD. and turns out the master thief who ran off with it is...... not such a master. he tries, tho, he tries rly hard. nya appreciates a trier right also god adam would kill for a supervisor like that in the settings where he's an actual student where has nya been all his life
I LIKE THE FLASHBACK IDEA A LOT HONESTLY i'm not sure how the meeting itself would happen unless adam just kind of arrives in the house of knowledge w/o realising it's a familia thing? like someone is just like. 'ah yeah if you need help with some forbidden knowledge......' and it 100% fails to set off adam's sus detector until he's just like. trapped between two shelves like. wow i'm a dumb bitch aren't i
BUT YA LIKE. i love the idea of him being like. a lil trapped in the whole god-servant relationship given the whole deadly poison assassins if unprotected thing, and believe me he will probably get rly bratty about it at some point, but at the same time... nya is basically the most chill god he could have stumbled into a relationship with, and he knows it.
the library is fuckin sweet tho i feel like he probably has to be chased out with a broom by molly on several occasions

adam has lived in orario for two years at this point, but he’s only just getting to the point where he feels comfortable in the city. he hasn’t been in his current familia all that long, he certainly hasn’t been doing much in the way of frontline work, and more than anything supports himself through alchemy and the appraisal of magical objects and relics.[break][break] fortunately, he can start working on that now that he’s fairly sure nobody’s going to murder him in the middle of the street.[break][break] confident and outgoing, adam is the sort of person who can be a little difficult to shut up when you get him going, and one should always assume a solid half of the words that come out of his mouth are lies, but his quick mind and inquisitive nature are an asset to everyone who works with him. [break][break] just make sure you don’t leave him in charge of anything valuable. [/PTab={margin-top:-30px;margin-left:-10px;width:314px;height:452px;background-color:#111;}] [PTab= [attr="class","MYPleftbutton"][attr="class","far fa-star"] ] [attr="class","MYPrighttxtbox"] [attr="class","MYPrighttop"] friends [attr="class","MYPrighttxt"]
he’s a pretty easy person to strike up a superficial friendly relationship with - adam is chatty, almost impossible to offend, and enjoys the company of others. he has a lazy, irreverent sort of charm to him, and cultivates useful connections whenever he can. he could even be termed generous, at least from the outside - he thinks of it as more bribery without a set goal in mind. [/PTab={margin-top:-30px;margin-left:-10px;width:314px;height:452px;background-color:#111; }] [PTab= [attr="class","MYPleftbutton"][attr="class","fas fa-bolt"] ] [attr="class","MYPrighttxtbox"] [attr="class","MYPrighttop"] enemies [attr="class","MYPrighttxt"]
adam is deeply untrustworthy - he’s fickle, prone to ignoring things he doesn’t want to hear, and twisting even written contracts as far as he can. [break][break] no surprise that he betrayed even his own parents, then. [break][break] adam may, kind of, sort of have a standing order out for his death by the god kanghui, based in the far east, given the whole ‘theft of a sacred text’ thing, and while his running into any of the familia in orario is (hopefully) unlikely there may be those who look down on him for his lack of loyalty. he can also be pretty shockingly disrespectful to those who might expect it - gods, members of the long-lived higher races, et cetera, but he’s very much of the opinion respect is hard-earned. [/PTab={margin-top:-30px;margin-left:-10px;width:314px;height:452px;background-color:#111;}] [PTab= [attr="class","MYPleftbutton"][attr="class","far fa-heart"] ] [attr="class","MYPrighttxtbox"] [attr="class","MYPrighttop"] lovers [attr="class","MYPrighttxt"]
he’s currently unattached, and given that his first, last and only notable sexual experience was at seventeen and not particularly pleasant at all he finds dating a terrifying concept. he certainly shows none of it on the surface, and a lot of his banter does tend to come off as shamelessly flirtatious, but actually being hit on makes him clam up tight and pull back sharply. infatuations make him clingy and jealous, and he kind of hates it, but what can you do? [/PTab={margin-top:-30px;margin-left:-10px;width:314px;height:452px;background-color:#111; }] [/PTabbedContent={height:452px;background-color:#111;}] |
