It took Ferrus a little over an hour - that is to say, how long it took him to finish a thick book on something detailing how to make Persona-themed crafts with diatribes on Personas in the margins - to notice Avitus. Dude was peeking up at him suspiciously! He... had to wonder what was going on, there.

When he set the tome down, he paused for a moment - before promptly standing up right when Avitus was peeking at him and walking over. C'mon, Ferrus, force yourself to be interrogative!

"What are you doing?" Yes, that was good.
