Date & Time: 5th May, afternoon
Location: Initiative Library
Characters: Zidane Tribal and you!
Summary: Zidane has discovered comic books. And Wonder Woman.
Warnings: None yet. Zidane hits on girls, though.

[Zidane was in the Initiative library today, trying to research for any information on United Earth. It was not the first time he had been to the library and he had found various things - even books from Gaia. For a while, Zidane had even wondered if he should set up a theatre troupe in Exsilium. The city was such a depressing place and even though people had hope, giving them a little more cheer would not hurt.

Something else caught the thief's eye, however, when he was rummaging through the bookshelves and he found a particularly famous comic book series. Overcome with curiosity, he grabbed a bunch of the comics and found a seat in a quiet corner of the library to read them.

No, the comic did not pique the boy's interest because there was a hot woman on the cover. What rubbish are you talking about?

Come up to him? Bother him? Zidane is pretty engrossed in one of the stories at the moment and you might need to tap him on the shoulder to get his attention.]

[Elliot had come to check out the next Holy Knight book, but he still browses out of habit if only to decide what to read next. So the sight of this...person seeming so engrossed in something that does not look like a book to him at all catches his attention.

He strides up to the table, crossing his arms and remember to not speak at full volume. Not that he's really quiet, but if you know him it is an improvement.]

Why do you have that garbage in the library?

[Zidane glances up from his book and WOW, WHO ARE YOU? RUDE.]

Hey, it was in the library already. Maybe you should try reading it? It's actually not that bad! [Okay, the main reason Zidane picked it up because of the chick heroine but the story's good too!]

[The rudest nice guy ever, yep.]

I'm not going to read that! It looks like it has more pictures than words!

Hey, there's no harm in reading something like this once in a while! [EMBRACE YOUR INNER GEEK, ELLIOT]

[He is. It's just his inner snobby geek.]

Of course there is! Reading anything with a total lack of substance is a complete waste of time!

How do you know it lacks substance? Have you even tried it?

I can tell just by looking at it! More time was spent on the pictures than on the actual story!
