In which Lloyd proves just how non-canon he is
A week had passed since Lloyd had helped Elise escape back to the Nexus, and he had found himself slowly getting used to his strange new surroundings. They had little to do with the neighbors in their building (though the young children down the hall had nearly run him over on a few occasions), and while Elise did have several acquaintances around the Nexus Lloyd himself saw little need to make himself familiar with many people. It simply...made him uneasy. The only beings with any real emotion he had ever known were the Seraphim and Grand Cardinals. For all that he barely knew the latter, mostly through reputation and a handful of personal encounters, they were nothing like those he'd seen thus far in this place. His father had said before that an emotionally open person could be read like a book, but here people were so open that at times he couldn't understand them at all.

As a result he had taken to spending much of his time in the library that Elise frequented, perusing the shelves and databases for an eclectic range of topics. Swordsmanship, aerial machines, even a few books about alchemy after Elise explained what it was (though he could barely understand most of it--science was not his strong suit). He'd even found some books about how a human could wield magic after meeting a man in the Nexus who could manipulate fire mana, though he had called his technique firebending. He'd had rather a lot to say about tea as well...

At the moment Lloyd was at a computer terminal searching for information of a slightly different variety, however, and not one he was having much success finding information on.

Elise wasn't in the best of moods today, frustrated by a combination of lack of progress in her search and the slightly rocky adjustment to her new abilities...and the damn wings. Lloyd had tried to broach the subject again a few days after they first arrived, and Elise had summarily told him to shove it and that as far as she was concerned those wings weren't ever going to come out. The only problem was that their presence had started to feel like an itch, and the longer she tried to ignore them, the more her back felt...well, sensitive wasn't the right word, or tense, but it sure as hell was uncomfortable. Which of course made her even more snappy than usual, which got her into more than a few arguments that could have been avoided.

Then again, given her general mood they might not have.

At the moment she was reading up on some information about PINpoints--oh, she already had one of the little gadgets, but it was useless to her without the proper co-ordinates, and she sure as hell couldn't calculate them, at least not yet.

Lloyd frowned at the computer terminal, frustrated at it's stubbornness in not finding what he needed. He had assumed that keycrests would be a common enough item that the Nexus would have at least some information on them, but almost everything he was finding was either in Dwarvish or so incredibly mundane that it did not help him for his needs. Surely at least one person had compiled information about Exsphere keycrests at some point in time!

Frustrated, he cleared and closed the search program and stood up with a glance to either side to spot his erstwhile companion. That was another thing that confused him--why she would deny herself the use of such a clear tactical advantage flight provided was beyond him, and a mild jealousy only compounded the issue.

Elise suppressed a faint wince at the unusually loud sound of the chair legs scraping against the floor, looking over to Lloyd. "What's gotten you all riled up?"

Lloyd blinks, carefully blanking his expression again. "What do you mean?"

She shoots him a flat look. "You have all the emotional response of a wet sack, Lloyd. If you actually look like you're upset about something, clearly it's digging at your mood. So spill, maybe I can actually get something done about your problem."

"It is nothing you need concern yourself with," he says shortly, turning to push the chair back into its place. "The lack of information for what I am looking for is simply much more of a obstacle than I originally thought."

Elise frowns. "What the hell is it you've been searching for the last few days, anyway? Whatever the fuck it is you're sure being neurotic about it."

"Some minor information from my world, that's all. I assumed that the Nexus might have more information leaked from the Dwarves on the topic, but obviously I was mistaken."

Ugh. Why did he have to be so obstinate?! "Information about what?"

Lloyd gives her a sharp look, shoulders going stiff. "I already said it doesn't concern you."
