It was impressive how quickly Howard's mind bluescreened. If Freya looked at Howard's single remaining eye, she'd see the last vestiges of sentient thought disappear into nothingness. It was like watching the sun burn away the last vestiges of mist in the morning.
Then, Howard's mind started working again. The sparkle returned to his eye.
"Seriously...? Howard asked, awestruck. "You'll get it signed? I can get my compendium signed by a Head Professor? You'd do that for me, a stranger?"
There were practically dancing Miniors floating around his head, Howard's eye was sparkling so much. If there was ever someone who embodied the phrase 'glowing with excitement', it was Howard Slayte in this precise moment.
"I'll meet you and pick it up! I have to go to Ever Grande in a few weeks, anyway." Howard thought about his deal with illeana reyes. His collection of signatures was picking up. Soon, it'd rival his collection of Kyle Lopez bobbleheads. "Besides, if you send it to my apartment, my landlord will probably throw it out."
The archaeologist bowed his head, deeply grateful. Maybe Freya was one of the 'good' politicians, after all. He couldn't gauge her authenticity when it came to being passionate about Sky Pillar, but he could appreciate this action. Even if she had spurned the past, Howard would not.
A fool chopped the trunk of history, a brute torn at the leaves, and a wise woman? She dug at the roots.
"Thank you again. I'd kill to meet Dr. Morales and ask her about Ursaluna biology, but I suppose that'll have to wait." Howard sighed and nodded at the book that Freya still held. "Keep it safe, would you? It was written by you, but it remembers me."
A book remembering its owner?
