[Once she had gotten word that there was a library at the school, Ami had made a habit of having regular visits there. She had already gotten through a few of her old favorites, but she was finding herself hesitant to try anything new...

...that, and she didn't even know where to start.

Once she'd found a quiet, secluded little corner in the library, away from any students or easily-annoyed librarians, she opened communication on her device to send out a broadcast for the first time since her return arrival.]

So...

[Eep! Was she too loud?! She hunches her shoulders slightly and keeps her voice at a stage-whisper.]

So I would like to see if there's any interest in starting a book club, here? With such a lovely library, it would be a shame to see the opportunity go to waste!

[She smiles momentarily, but her brow quickly furrows in concern.] Unless there already is one? I'm sorry, I hadn't thought to look into that. If there is a book club, then...please accept my apologies, I don't mean to impose with my own, I'd happily join one if there's already one in existence.

Oh! I mean, if there's open membership, I mean.

[Aaagh, she should've thought out what she was going to say before opening her mouth. Great job, Ami. Now you're blushing, no doubt. Next time write down what you wish to say, and don't stray from it.]

...any interest? Any at all?

[Wait, wasn't that the girl who did those...'comics'?]

...alright.

[Grain of salt. Grain of salt.]

[She also reads books...romance books.]

Great. I know of some old time classic romance novels that people might enjoy.

[Ami nervously smiles.]

I'm not sure if a romance novel would be something that would appeal to a broad audience. [She doubts any boys would want to read it, unless it was a classic of some sort.]

[She sighed, shrugging her shoulders.]

Then some people just don't get what's so great about romance novels.

Which ones did you have in mind? [Something like Wuthering Heights might have cross-appeal, for example...]

There are just too many to list and to see if they actually have in the library.

[She could name one, but if she did and it wasn't there would be embarrassing.]

Perhaps we could look together? Maybe you could spot a few to recommend to me, at least, for personal consumption.

[After all, in order to be creative...and she's seen your creativity...you have to have seen both the good and the bad, right?]

That sounds like a good idea. Two heads are always better than one after all.

Do you know where the library is located, then?

[ukidokiotaku]

I do, it's where I sold my books.

Oh. [Would you call them 'books', exactly? Weren't they comics?

Though the mere mention of them...well...]
