Shia carefully ran a long, pale finger over the backs of the old books. The high racks were stuffed with parchment scrolls, old manuscripts and books that were often so old that the pages crackled as you turned them.
A pleasant smell hung in the old Cloud library, a particular smell she had always enjoyed. It reminded her of when she was younger, she'd spend entire afternoons and evenings simply going through scrolls.
Her finger stopped. "Herbology: Two-sided use." The finger moved upward, and carefully pulled the book out. It was one of those older models. A ribbon was adjusted to it as a bookmark, and the dust it covered showed her that the book hadn't bean read in ages. <Well-kept herb secrets, are they?> Shia looked at the yellowed contents page. <Healing...Disabling...and all the way through killing. This should be well enough.>

Roka sat down cross-legged in front of a well-stocked shelf, scanning the contents of a book written on medical jutsus and techniques. Settled beside him were a few others, one written about various types of demons--or at least, as much information as a human could provide…and another was research on bizarre skin conditions. ‘Yeah. Now I know why the librarian gave me that strange look.’ He mused, turning the page. The information he was reading right now related to the effects ice jutsus had on the body.

Haku was near Shia’s second, picking through several books, trying to find one listing the flower he located the other day. He’d never seen one like it before, even in all his travels, but hopefully someone else had. ‘8 books and counting…this is taking forever.’

Shia looked up from the A of Armisenherb. "Oh, hello, Roka! Haku! How are you both doing?"
She looked over Haku's shoulder. "Are you looking for a certain herb?" She gestured towards her own heavy reading material. "I've been interested in herbology since I was a kid."

Blinking up from his study, Roka waved. “Hey. I’m fine, just doing some research. And you two?”

Haku was startled, but he smiled at Shia and waved at Roka. “Me, too, but actually,” he shook his head, “I’m not really sure what I’m looking for. I found a plant yesterday with this…strange flower. I’ve never seen one like that before, so I was hoping one of these books would help.”

"I wanna make some potions...for experiments." Shia replied him with a smirk. "I bet you know more about demons than what's in that book o'yours, Roka."
"What colour did the petals have? Or shape?" she asked Haku with a sudden keen interest.

“Most likely.” Roka replied, rolling his eyes. Hence why it was sitting beside him, collecting more dust. “I’m still going to skim through it, though. A little optimism never hurt.”
