The other agreed to see the library, and a smile found its way to his lips. He was glad, but then the other spoke of his hand. A blush spread out over his cheeks, and he adverted his eyes in embarrassment. He placed his good hand over the wound, before speaking "no, it was no trouble at all...I enjoyed it, and if you do even a little it is worth it." He smiled a bit once more. He noted the ears of the other, so he was not human? Or at least not fully. He lifted his bandaged hand, before he undid the edge of the bandage. "It is fine..." the bandage slid from his hand, his glove lowered. The wound was barley a thin line on his hand now, almost fully healed. "See, almost good as new" he stood, his mind going to the maps the other was requesting. He nodded, moving to a desk in one of the corners. Opening a few drawers, he pulled out a few rolled up scrolls. He opened one, looking it over a bit.
"The place is quite larger than one might think...so it is best to have such maps on hand " he rolled it back up, before he moved to the other. Handing it over to him he paused for a moment. "If I may ask....what are you?" it was an abrupt question he knew, and one some feared to answer. It was possibly a delayed reaction to noticing the ears, but he found himself asking. "You do not have to worry" he added moments after, "it does not matter what you are in all honesty, you are welcome here...it is more of just curiosity." He returned to his seat, picking up a strawberry this time. He hoped the other was not offended by his words, and would honestly believe when he said it did not matter, that he was welcome here. It was better to get all questions out in the open and answered from the get go right? The other could have a chance to calm some of his nerves possibly, he did say he desired to talk more. It meant that he was curious right? So the best way to begin was to break the ice. Solaris hoped that he was not shattering it though.
