He ignored Conrad, then looked around a bit, "Lot of books, but you mind if I smoke?" he asked, "I'll keep it under control."

"Yeah, go ahead," He said picking up another book and opening it, only for it to split in two.

"Thanks," he started to light one, "Trying to cut back," he said.

"Patches?" Conrad suggested "Gum? Inhalator's? Something else?"

"I prefer to actually smoke on my daily smoke," he said, "One a day isn't too bad," he exhaled a breath.

Conrad coughed a little.
"So ... how hard is that with the smoking ban?" He asked, walking up to the window and opening it up "Sorry,"

"No problem," he said, "Hard, but it helps to try to quit," Aurelio told him.

"Yeah," He said, looking through another box "... Ugh, how many books are there in this room?"

"Maybe we should be cataloging them, for future reference," Aurelio suggested, "While we're searching, that is."

Conrad picked up a book and threw it into an empty cardboard box where it landed with a "FUMP"
"Can,"
FUMP! Another book landed in the box
"Not,"
FUMP!
"Be,"
FUMP! This new book landed open, and then closed with another FUMP!
"*rs*d,"
Conrad looked up.
"We should though, but loads of them have this incomprehensible ... I don't know what, it's either old English or latin," He said opening a book and showing Aurelio "I think the most up to date stuff here are some of Donovan's old thesis papers, from about 2008 or something,"

"Good point," Aurelio said, paging through a random book, "I can't comprehend this. We need someone to understand the language."

"I think we're looking for one with technical drawings as opposed to-" Conrad pulled a face and then held up the book he'd been looking through "- this sort of stuff,"
The writing on the page was mostly in scrawled Latin but no one would notice because the picture taking up the two pages was some kind of crudely drawn butcher shop ... a crudely drawn cannibal butcher shop.

"Interesting," Aurelio said, closing that book, "Well, ok, that helps. Not going to get that picture out of my head for a while, but it helps, I guess."

Conrad picked up a book and opened it up.
"Still nothing," He sighed "Alright ... what doesn't look old," He asked, "Take all that out and throw it into a pile,"

"Sounds like a good start," he said, flipping through books and tossing them into a pile beside him.
