There's got to be something going on.

[He squeezes her hands.]

My magic went out like a candle. Candles don't go out unless something blows them out. Something's gotta be going on.

And it's messing with Raíz's powers?

[ It's like one of her pillars of reality is showing cracks. ]

It's not like your magic, or... I don't think it is?

[chokedout]

[He isn't offended by the implied lack of comparison, though he does think magic in any sense is as weighted as any other ability.]

I mean, the library's alive. We're not just talking small fries here. Maybe Raíz has competition? Or she's in on the gag.

No, she... [ Yes, she would. Maybe. ] I.

[ Opening her mouth. Closing her mouth. ]

Fuck, I hate this.

[chokedout]

We- We can investigate? There's gotta be some reason. Easy peasy kinda thing?

[He says, heart hammering silently in his chest.]

We'll figure it out together. Yeah?

[ Quietly, she nods. He's anxious, she's anxious, stuck in the exact same situation for ... the first time, she thinks. Everything this place does always seems to happen to them differently. ]

Yeah. Together.
