[Amusing is so much better than annoying so she'll take it.] No! See, I totally get that. I mean old books do smell funny and musty and dusty and like someone's grandma. Or, you know what i always imagined someone's grandma would smell like.
[She smiles fondly at the question and nods.] Sort of. I--my...Giles. [While her tone doesn't tell him who Giles is exactly, it does tell him that it's someone she's very fond of] He...when I first met him he was the librarian at my high school. I spent a lot of time there with him and my friends. It always felt like it was safe, like nothing bad could happen to me there. [Her brow furrows.] Even though it did sometimes. [Her eyebrows rise as she considers all of her words together.] Time spent in a completely not creepy way. In case you were wondering.
