Apparently Tsugiharu had decided to spend nearly the entire day in the library. He considered making a nest in the stacks and spending the night, but he doubted the host's would think very kindly of that.

Atena needed to research spells and continue her studies in neuroscience, this time she brought her conelantern. The fortunes smiled at the girl because she was trying to find Kuchiki Tsugiharu to speak with him. He would note her new clothes and her new hair color and style. The Moshi moved closer to the Spider and smiled. "Hello Kuchiki san."

Given the tone of voice,Tsugiharu had a fairly good idea of who he was talking to.

He bowed.

"Komori-san, you're looking especially beautiful tonight, how are you?" he asked.

"Anooooo..." The girl shook her head. "Anooo... Kuchiki san... I know you met Komori san... etooo... I feel a bit embarrassed about what happened." She sighed. "But seems you broke through to her... and well I... guess that we are changing in our own ways." She nodded.

Internally Tsugiharu kicked himself. He knew he was talking to the Moshi. He'd meant to say Moshi-san. So why did the Komori interject herself between thought and speech?

"My apologies, Moshi-san." he said with a small bow. "i've been somewhat distracted today with this shoddy library organization system."

He gestured at the barely filed works.

"Ah, but I've done very little Moshi-san. Like the old joke, I've just shown you where the rocks are so your steps can take you to shore."

"Words can be sometimes more effective than... well... a sword or a stab." She giggled nervously. "Etooo... is there a way I can help?"

Tsugiharu nodded.

"Hmm, possibly, Moshi-san. How have your own studies been going?" he said, his player still waiting for gm results from rolls earlier in the day.

"I have read the book I borrowed from here and read some articles on my densai... interesting stuff... anooo... I read something about colors and personalities... etooo... and how each one behaves."

Tsugiharu nodded.

"Hmm, interesting Moshi-san. What did you find out?" he asked, genuinely curious.

"The four color theory, uses four colors to base a person's personality each color can be bright or muted... etoo... I have muted Orange for example which means I am not outgoing or like to be the center of attention." She explained. "Kystal is the orange one... you know."

Tsugiharu considered that.

"Hmmm." he said, looking down to the black and white of his own clan colors. "What color do you think I am?"

"Anooo... based on that book... I think you are green... perhaps a bit of gold... but mostly green... Green is studious and likes to analyze things before answering. Gold is organized and everything has its time and place."

Tsugiharu chuckled a bit.

"So Mantis colors for me, and Phoenix colors for you?" he said, somewhat amused.

The girl shook her head. "Me... no... I am green and blue." She smiled. "I don't like to be the center of attention and my brain is so scattered that I don't really know how to organize myself."

Tsugiharu nodded, as yet picked up yet another tome that was in the wrong spot.

"Hmmm, did you say you wanted to help with research, Moshi-san? I'm trying to find records about the planet's pacification before it was settled. Admittedly, finding something so old is not easy."

"Oh... sounds like a big project. I wonder why the Asako let this place go on like this?" She nodded "I can give it a try but but it might be a difficult task." She sighed at the many books around.

Tsugiharu shrugged.

"Believe me, I know. I've spent most of the day fruitlessly hunting about here. If you don't find anything Moshi-san, I won't be disappointed, but if you do I'll be quite pleased. And it's something to talk about, ne?" he suggested.

"Hai..." She took out her comnelantern and begins to search. Seems she is a bit familiar with the place. She hums when she encountered a book about the subject Tsugiharu was looking for. She offered it to him. "I hope that is the one."

A quick skim revealed that it was not what Tsugiharu was looking for.

He shook his head.

"Ie, Moshi-san, though I do appreciate the effort, this is another copy of the clean history of the planet."

He held out the book to point to the appropriate passages.

"See, world is discovered, political arguing ensues, and then the planet gets settled." he says. "But there's a missing vital bit you see, likely between the arguing and the settling. I don't expect the Phoenix to keep a glorious history of the Spider laying around. But I had hoped to find some record somewhere about the actual conquest of the planet's original guardians, and sealing of it's spiritual portals."

He sighed a bit.

"Been chasing that elusive record all day, but with little luck. At least talking to you is a pleasant change of pace."

"Ah... I see... well you know... maybe tomorrow we can try again with the fortune of the kami, or fresh eyes you know." She nodded. "If you had told me you needed something more specific I might have looked for it... anoo.... gomen..." She lowered her head. "But this bit of information points you on the right track... the pole collapsing might be an indication of... nah that is silly."
