The engine of his motorcycle filled the peaceful street with a steady rumble as he pulled up in front of this particular branch of the Gotham city library system. He frequented this branch quite often and he was sure the noise of his ride must have herald his arrival for the staff inside. He went through the typical motions of throwing out the kick stand, turning the engine off and removing his gloves. He threw everything into to the helmet and unzipped his leather jacket. Dick trotted up the stairs and opened the door. He let the musty air of old books wash over him and he felt at peace. Books had that effect on him.
As he walked pass the front desk he smiled at the woman there before proceeding deeper into the library. He set all of his stuff down at a table toward the front, thereby claiming the spot as his before proceeding to hunt down todays research. He began to peruse the aisles looking for what volumes he may need. About five minutes later he had a stack of books in his hands and he was trying not to drop them. Unfortunately as he rounded a corner, his foot caught the edge of the aisle and the top book fell to the floor at someone's feet. "Sorry!" He blurted out before trying to retrieve the fallen item.
