[The library is back to being very quiet these days, after a few book incidents, one of which ended in a draw with one bitten arm and one bent spine from getting punched out of the air. Shin's yet to run afoul of them and wasn't around for their debut so pending their appearance at the meeting at most he's heard rumors and at least he's blissfully unaware. If there's unease, it's due to the fading multicoloured bruises across him. He's developed a habit of peering around the corner of a shelf before moving despite knowing it makes no sense. Avoiding the cuts still in the floor makes just a little more sense.
But it does mean he's in a position to hear a one-sided conversation as he does so, in amongst his own whispers, a couple of books tucked under his arm and in the process of being slipped into the satchel looped over a shoulder.]
...Didn't see you there Ranger, ahaha...
[He's not making eye contact, not that he habitually does, but there is the sense he's trying to think of how to put something, or if he should say something at all. It's the assessing uncertainty of trying to feel out where they currently stand by vibes alone, with Shin knowing his receiver isn't great.]
So... did you have a phone installed recently?
[There's a light tone to it, because there wouldn't be a need for Ranger to speak aloud if he had; it's Shin's attempted oblique reference to the talking to thin air, a measure of clumsy offered deniability despite knowing it's been going around.]
c! but Ranger can tick off someone having a birthday in april if he wants : D
