Laughing soflty as Richard explained Limix and anyone else who might stalk her, she had known people like Limix, socially confused, but excelled in other fields. They knew their work, but when it came to socialising, and humor, they found themselves isolated.<br/><br/>"I'm sure that we'll get along, once I become more comfortable with her", she added, then followed Richard inside his home. The inside was as lived in as the outside, and matched with their natures and ways of living. She had lived near a greenhouse at one of the places that her father had stayed at, and had found work there. It was just watering the plants when the owners were away and being visible to secure against break-in's, but she had never seen the plants that she was seeing here in the outside world.<br/><br/>Walking up to the many plants, she traced her fingers over their leaves and took in their scents. She soon found the source of the Cinnimon and pumpkin scent that filled the air. The scrolls and books were another thing entirely. The scrolls were in the same footprint script, clearly the dominant language here, and one that she would have to devote herself to learning.<br/><br/>Some of the books were in english, her native language, and smiled at the sight of one of Robert Heinlen's books. Opening up her pack, she fished in and took out a book that her brother had loaned her a month ago, but she hadnt had a chance to written, a collection of sci fi stories written by sci fi writers, among them Heinlen and Issac Assimov.<br/><br/>"I think you could use some new reading material. I havnt read this one yet. I'm still going through Tony Wheelers book Bad Lands, so, you'll probably read it before I will. Consider it a gift", she said, then placed it on the bookcase where several other books were.<br/><br/>She gaped at the statues with dinosaur heads on them, something that she wouldnt have seen outside this island, and wondered what was in the sealed ceramic pots. "So, just curious, what's in the pots", she asked him and looked around for Limix, but she couldnt see a velociraptor's body anywhere.<br/><br/>"Upstairs we go next", she added and walked towards the ramp, curious and eager to see more of their house. She assumed that she was the first stranger to be shown around in a while and wanted to see everything. Plus, she wanted to see the top levels,and if there was a rooftop entrance, then she could sketch there,with the city spread around her in every direction.
