uncurtained | pc catchall for taako (chaoticlootral)

[This morning, she's looking around the library again; while she spent a good amount of the day yesterday here, she still feels like she's barely cracked the surface. There's a book of poetry in her hands when she sees Taako, and she lifts a hand in greeting.]

Looking for anything specific?

[ Taako has been ... rudely digging through the shelves in every “T” section there is. Just in case? He seems to not being having much success, and is clearly irritated by this fact. ]

Seems rude they haven’t bothered stocking my memoir cooking journal. It’d be a good reference here, since apparently you’re all pretty hopeless cooks.

You wrote a cookbook?

[She seems curious, turning her attention from her book to look his way.]

Come on, not all of us are that bad.

[they definitely are.]

You definitely are! You admitted to me you love Kraft Cheese Powder. Like, outloud!

[Still rummaging through books, and then just tossing rejects onto the ground.]

I've written several cookbooks. I mean, sure, not all of them published, on account of publisher bias against me, but I've still written them.

Okay, I said most people, not—

[She’s about to finish that thought when he just starts tossing books on the floor, and she starts to pick them up without thinking. As she does:]

Don’t do that! You might damage them...

They're fine, they're fine-- [He tosses another one, except this time a . . . plastic credit card sized thing falls out of the book and skates across the floor. Taako instantly looks at it, narrowing his eyes.]

Ah, fuck. Seriously? This again?

[She watches as it comes down, glancing down at the card and then back at him. Similar to how she picked up the books, her hand is already reaching for it, somehow.]

Is this yours? What is it?

[He'll have to be pretty quick to stop her from grabbing it.]

[He doesn't stop her! He just. Sighs deeply and leans into the memory bullshit again. IT HAPPENS.

I'm gonna be a 'lil lazy and link a video for this one, but Taako doesn't seem all that displeased? It's a great show of his mercantile wits? Taako this . . . probably isn't as impressive without context. ]

Oh. That one wasn't so bad.

[It's still strange and disorienting, to be experiencing somebody else's memory - but she moves on after a moment and a grimace.]

...Nice bargaining skills. Was the, uh, sword all it was cracked up to be?

As a fashion accessory? It was great!

[Did . . . . did he never use it.]

...But as an actual sword?
