| Not for Louis, at least. He's sitting quietly in a chair in a corner, perfectly content with being undisturbed even in the presence of people (thankfully nobody comes near the chair in the corner with the Slavic encyclopedias). There's a book in his hand, and one at his feet: One is on Physical Therapy, the other... well, it's facedown, but it's clearly a cheap romance novel. His duffel bag is behind the chair, his coat still draped around his shoulders as he reads the book on physical therapy. | |

| Rocket is wearing a pair of dark jeans, and a bright red teeshirt. Totally standing out there. In his back pocket is a wallet with his card, and a couple bucks tucked safely inside. No normally, Rocket would never be able to stand a library, but he had some serious researching to do on college. Library's were always too quiet. Too indiscreet. Too...library-ish. And, they smelled like paper. Gross. But he wasn't here for books, at least he hoped not. The power generator producing energy for the state of the art computers at the Hideout that Roxy was so proud of, was down, and the library's computers usually worked faster. He sits down in front of a screen. He logs in, and begins researching, keeping an eye out for anything he might need to see. {Rocket}

| The computers being just within his field of vision, Louis happens to glance up and see Rocket sitting down for his research. Instantly he buries his face even further into his text, trying to be as indiscreet as possible. Eventually, though, he knew he would have to go over there: he had also planned to look up college information and had been distracted by his book. He went over and over his dilemma before he finally bit the bullet, stood, and strode over to the computers, duffel bag and books in hand. | |

| Rocket hears someone shuffle in the corner, and make their way over to the computers. He looks up, and his face lights up. Louis, my man! How have you been? He says happily getting up, and slapping Louis on the shoulder friendly-like. Rocket didn't realize that just because they spoke didnt mean they were besties for ever and ever. Rocket wanted it to be like that, for he too had trouble finding and keeping friends, but not because of his shyness, because he was too good for everyone else. Or thats what he thought. The truth was; he was a bragger, and people got easily annoyed with his cocky attitude. | |

| Too much, too soon. Louis nearly jumped out of his skin, dropping his bag and his books, and skittered a few feet away. It looked a little ridiculous, but he didn't really care: he was too shocked by Rocket's sudden recognition. One of his dropped books landed on the keyboard of a computer, and it beeped at him: the redhead flinched slightly at the sound. | |

| Rocket looks at him with a frown. You ok? He asks kneeling down and gathering up a few books from the ground. | |

| Still shocked by the sudden attention (the last person to do that to Louis had been gone for seven months), he nodded sheepishly, face almost as red as his hair. Louis leaned down to grab his gym bag and swept the book off the keyboard and into his palm. He shrugged in response to Rocket's question and tried to sit a few desks away from the other, only to notice that none of the others turned on. He would have to sit beside Rocket... ho embarrassing. | |

| Well... Rocket says slowly thinking that he wouldn't want to be jabbering to himself. He sits down again, and continues clicking away on the mouse. Rocket really was more interested in where the college was, not the quality. How shallow. | |

| He had no other choice. Louis gingerly sat down in the chair next to Rocket and began doing his own search: apparently for physical therapy and welding schools. He rubbed his chin slowly, eyes focused on the screen (and definitely NOT on Rocket). Once or twice he glanced at Rocket's screen to see what he was looking for. | |

| Finally Rocket couldn't handle it anymore. What are you looking to get a degree in? He asks, taking a peek at the large redheads screen. | |

| Once again he flinched, then glanced sideways at Rocket as he turned the screen slightly. It was showing the welding program at some university in Utah. One of the tabs showed physical therapy degrees for a university in North Carolina. | |

| Welding? Sweet. Thinking that would really be fun. Rocket swivels his screen to his, and show him a screen presenting a picture of a volcano. Hawaii. Yes, it was beautiful, but it was also intriguing. Although he wanted to work in a place that took your breath away, he wanted to get paid alot. Volcanologist would do that. Maybe a engineer too, he wasnt sure yet. His ideas ranged from office jobs, to dangerous jobs. None of them matched up . | |

| Louis's face clouded with confusion as he read through his career choices in the tabs. Taxidermy? Vulcanology? Engineering? What was up with this guy? He turned back to his own screen without a word and began a search for closer welding schools. | |

| Louis shook his head and briefly began searching for welding schools in Ireland: not that he had any money to get back there, or was even safe there anymore. Not without a companion, and his last companion from when he was in Ireland was... well, missing, to put it lightly.
He shook his head and went back to looking for schools in the near area. | |

| ((... maybe once the library closes they can walk home together, growing increasingly uncomfortable the closer to the Hideout they get?)) | |
