My apologies for interrupting, but I'm afraid I must cut in and ask our friend here for some assistance with something. Perhaps you could partake and return refreshed? Should I find someone to lead you to the kitchens?

library clean up
[ erwin is currently sorting through a stack of library books, putting them carefully into different stacks according to where they go. he may not be a librarian, but he uses the library often enough (nerd) to be personally invested in it.
he looks up at the arrival of more books (and a person attached to them) and smiles. ]
Quite the haul you've got there. Feel free to set them down anywhere.
[ it feels like forever, waiting for levi to return to him. they haven't had all the time in the world together since arriving back here and he already feels a little keyed-up just from the short time levi's been going through the initial processes of becoming a novice.
erwin had explained everything plainly before even offering to take levi under his wing (so to speak), including much of what revar is covering. perhaps he shouldn't have, seeing as it involves a lot of vampire knowledge, but in the same vein, erwin's always confident when he's found someone he knows would benefit from what he and the courts can offer.
and he'd been right.
so he stands off to the side, watching everything like a hawk, and once levi's finally walking back to him, he smiles. it's knowing, almost a little fond already, and he tilts his head just a little. ]
Levi.
