Emrys smiled brightly and immediately took Jenn's hand as she moved to stand, helping her up. He was glad that the girl had agreed, half worried she would have said no. He led her down the halls to the library, a route he had memorized since their first day stuck here. He had spent a great deal of time there, something Mir had lightly teased him about.
"You're wonderful company Jenn" he reassured the other slave as they stepped into the room. It was empty save for the two of them. It was perfect for them to sit and talk, away from the confines of the bedroom.It was also the perfect place to offer her something as sort of a gift.
"I saw on your journal the other day that you dictate to it what you want it to type," Emrys started gently, not wanting to embarrass or upset her. They were very different, just like Mir had said. "You don't have to answer if you don't want to but..Jenn, did your former Master ever teach you to read or write?"
