Trip to the library

Kid decided to just tag along and not play at all. He was hot enough just sitting still in his suit, he didn't need to jump and run around. He watched as BlackStar and Soul tried to teach Crona how to play(they had given up on Maka: she just sucked), confusing her with too many advices and rules at the same time. This time the bet was BlackStar having to give up his surpassing-God-speeches for a week and Soul having to compose a hymn for BlackStar praising his bigness. The pair ended up fighting when BlackStar's team won. Tsubaki hovered around the fighting boys like a mother hen while Maka talked with Crona.
"Having fun?"
"Liz!"
"Hiya. I'm done with groceries. I got some free time."
"Oh, hi Liz. Did you come to play with us?" Maka greeted. Liz shook her head and said that she didn't want to break the nails she had just polished. She always gave the same kind of excuses.
"I see." Kid looked around. Liz's younger sister was nowhere to be seen – nor heard.
"Where's Patty?"
"She met a nice guy in the store."
"That girl..."
Patty had grown more interested in boys in recent years. Many kinds of qualities seemed to attract her, but she was picky and lost interest quickly. Liz instead had found a more permanent boyfriend.
"Are you sure it was wise to leave her alone with a stranger?"
"You're right... He might be in serious danger..." Liz muttered horrified.
"Huh?" Maka answered.
"Hey, guys! I'm going to the library!" Soul yelled annoyed, his hands in his pockets. Judging by the black eye and sour face, he had lost the fight while Kid, Maka and Liz had been talking.
"In search of a dictionary! To know grand words that will grasp the true being of me!"
"To know words that he'll think are praise but are actually insults..." Soul muttered to Maka.
"Behold! The sun will know a day when people will come to me to bask in light that is brighter than a million galaxies!"
"We'll come too! Right, Crona?"
A hesitant nod from Crona, and the three left for the library. After thinking for a second Kid followed them. It wasn't like he had plans anyway. Liz came along.


Crona seemed to be the only one nervous about going to the library in gym clothes. She tried to hide behind Maka (an interesting sight, as the pink haired girl was over ten centimeters taller than the blonde), who just smiled and said it was okay. Liz was checking her hair for split ends with her eyebrows in a frown. Soul complained about his penalty. And Kid was questioning his decision about calling Crona a "she": her hips didn't sway the way it usually did with girls. Next to Maka it was quite obvious that Crona walked stiff. It didn't proove anything though: that redhead from their class also didn't sway her hips. And she was definitely a girl. And then there was that redhead's friend. And then there was that transvestite boy who walked like Liz. Not that it had anything to do with this...

In the library, Liz disappeared to the restroom, Maka went with Soul to the dictionaries and Kid and Crona were left alone in the lobby. She – or could it be he? - looked like she wanted to say something, but lost her confidence and just stayed quiet.
"Have you been here before?" Kid asked, just to strike up conversation. Kid and Crona weren't really close: just acquintances with mutual friends. They talked every now and then, of course, but there were always other people present. Crona nodded shyly and didn't look at Kid.
"M-M-Maka comes h-here sometimes..."
Figures. That girl does nothing but reads.
"Then, what kind of books do you like?"
"Ano, books about -"
Romance? Horses? Perhaps even cook books?
"- w-weapons... and sci-fi..."
Weaponry and sci-fi? Well that was surprising.
"My favorite is the Personality disorder -series..."
That series was clearly targeted to male audience. Blood, violence, dark themes and sex with very few girls. Crona was so not a pure, innocent virgin girl anymore.
"Ah." Kid smiled politely. Crona blushed slightly but smiled too. He – Kid was leaning towards he now – apparently didn't have a very refined taste in books. The Personality disorder -series wasn't known for deeper meanings and plot, it concentrated on depressing atmosphere and action.
