Looking out his window, Weavile had decided that it was perfect weather for a trip downtown. The sun was brightly shining yet there was a nice, cool breeze. Perhaps he'd hit up a few bookstores. Maybe even get a cup of tea while he was there. Yes, that sounded very relaxing.

As he exited his dorm, he glanced a few doors down. Hm, hadn't Lugia mentioned spending some time together? Weavile paused, thinking for a moment. A small smile grew on his lips as he approached TD-21. He gave the door a quick knock and quietly waited.

Lugia was already awake and was having his peaceful morning tea time with himself. He looked up from the book he was reading for the hundredth time when he heard a knock come from the door.

"Wait a moment, please!" He called out as he got up from where he sat. When he opened the door, he blinked in surprise to see Weavile standing in the hallway.

"My, what a pleasant surprise!" Lugia greeted with a smile. Unusually, Lugia had forgotten all about talking about spending time with the sharpclaw pokemon from once upon a time until then. "Oh, I believe an outing with you has been long delayed! It is a nice day out, were you planning to go about the town today? If you do not mind, I would like to accompany you."

Lugia, sometimes you talk a little too much.

Weavile blinked in surprise. It was almost as if Lugia had predicted all of this. Well granted, they had mentioned the trip a little while ago, but still. Either way, that meant one less explanation for the counselor.

A light chuckle escaped his lips. "Yes, that was exactly my intention. And I would greatly enjoy your company, thank you."

"I was thinking perhaps stopping by a book store or two and maybe getting a cup of tea," Weavile replied. "Does that sound alright to you?"

Oh, book store and getting some tea! An ideal planning for going out! (At least that's what Lugia thought.)

"That is an excellent plan!" Lugia replied, smiling cheerfully. "Ah, excuse me for a moment, I shall prepare myself to leave."

With that said, Lugia momentarily disappeared behind his door and reappeared after a small moment in a more presentable fashion.

"This is a very pleasant timing! I was hoping to visit some book stores to acquire a few new texts to read!" The silver legendary said cheerfully.

"Of course" Weavile nodded and watched Lugia head back into his dorm. After the other returned, the counselor started the trip towards the city.

"I'm glad I caught you at such an opportune moment then," he chuckled. "I figured you would enjoy such an outing, so I decided to ask. I'm glad that I did."

When Lugia mentioned new books, Weavile hm-ed in agreement. "Are you looking for anything in particular?"

"I am looking for more reference books for my teachings, actually." Lugia replied with a small laugh, rubbing his neck in habit. "Topics relating to science progress very quickly in a year, and I must keep myself updated with any new information... I am also looking for texts to read on leisure, also! Lately I have been very into mystery novels, so I am hoping there will be a new issue out to purchase!"

Lugia blinked a few times, realizing that he was talking way too much about himself and cleared his voice to give a pause for himself.

"Is there a specific text that you are searching for?"

As Lugia spoke, the counselor nodded his head. Current science texts, hm? Weavile could understand that. He always liked to be up-to-date on the current trends and research for psychology.

"No, not particularly," he answered. "I suppose I was just going to search until something caught my interest." Smiling, he added, "But if you're interested in mystery novels, perhaps I can suggest a few. Unless, of course, we've already read all of the same books."

"Ah, browsing! I do end up doing so in book stores often." Lugia replied with a small laugh. "And as often as that, I frequently end up staying at a store for an entire afternoon!"

He couldn't help it though; being surrounded by books always gave him so much to do!

"Or perhaps we may even end up finding something in a different genre!"

Weavile couldn't help but chuckle as well. It seemed laughter truly was contagious.

"I can understand. I too have spent quite a few afternoons just browsing my way through bookstores. Sometimes I find something new, sometimes not. It's always exciting regardless."

They had finally reached downtown. "Well then," he glanced around, "Where shall we begin?"

[guardianofsea.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm..." Lugia put a hand to his chin as he looked around. "I have heard that there was a new book store that had opened some time earlier in the week... It is somewhere down the block, perhaps we can visit there? I am quite curious what kind of text the new store will have."
