Book Haven, Monday

Seregil came into the shop and set out the tea and pastries for any customers who might want some.

Then he settled down himself with a few books on computers. He wanted to know more by the next lesson he had with Andrew.

Even though Zabuza would have hated it, since coming to fandom Haku had become a complete book worm, especially with those mystery novels that Evie had gotten him into before she left.

But now he was out and needed more.

Not being overly familiar with the store, he walked up to the counter and smiled prettily at the other teen. "Hello, I was wondering if you could help me."

Seregil looked up from his book. "I can try," he said with a smile. "What can I do for you?"

"I'm looking for a good mystery," Haku smiled back. "Do you know if there's anything good that's come out?"

"I'm still working my way through what the shop has," Seregil said. "Different dimension so different books. But the mystery section is over here."

"I'm having the same problem," Haku smirked slightly. "I'm Haku by the way."

He smiled. "Seregil. Is this place very different from where you are from?"

He nodded. "Yes and no. My home does have electricity and such in some places, but most are poor. Bookstores like this are only for the super rich and priveledged and then reading for leisure even more so. I'm going to be terribly spoiled when I go home."

"What about yours?"

"No electricity, although I've been priviledged most of my life to have access to many books," Seregil said. "There's a library where I used to be apprenticed that is one of the most complete in existence."

"That's pretty impressive," Haku smiled with a nod. "The only thing I read growing up were scrolls on fighting techniques and even those were hard to come by once my partner and I had to leave our village."
