[ Shen Wei loved researching. A part of it was the puzzle, of searching down just that one bit of information that would open a whole new angle that would prove enlightening. Another part was that it was the farthest away from a battle field that he could get. True that inside these books were ways to challenge a whole method of thought, that some of these people had destroyed countless others with their writings, but the blood did not flow along the floors and the screams were not caused by weapons.

A war of words and ideas was never the same as a battlefield full of broken bodies and sightless eyes.

The only problem with tracking down books was that the one book he wanted was missing off the shelf and when he politely inquired if it was going to be returned soon, he was told it had never left the building. Which meant that Shen Wei had to sneak around looking for a book that might be currently in the hands of another person.

And that is how he ended up at Yunlan's corner table, one eyebrow raised in a silent challenge as his eyes narrowed behind his glasses. Forget the fact that he was going to avoid the man for his own good. Shen Wei was in the middle of research and he was so not in the mood to play with Yunlan and his lazy and messy ways. ]


Are you quite done with that book? [ His voice had a chilly edge to it even as he nods at the book in question, the faded blue spine peeking out from under the pile of books. ]
