[ If Leo wasn't such an avid lover of music and a piano player himself, there's a big chance he would have been annoyed by the humming. But as it stands, Simmaeri's in luck. The melody slowly pulls him away from his book and back to reality where he finds himself closing his eyes and listening intently.
Leo's never slept much and in Exsilium he sleeps even less after everything that's happened leaving not only his waking moments troubled, but his sleeping ones as well. His bed is practically a home to his books, just like it'd been back in Lutwidge Academy, and Leo gets by with short naps whenever he falls asleep reading. The librarian is nice enough to occasionally just let him stay the night so finding Leo in the library at late hours is nothing unusual.
Only when the humming comes closer and seems to stop right behind him does Leo open his eyes and look up. Or well, more accurately put he tilts his head back and—
Suddenly finds himself staring right at a smiling face. There's an owlish blink before Leo catches himself. ]
