Quin looked around in alarm as the girl next to her gave a strangled sort of cry. The girl quickly threw a book back into the shelf. Noa looked positively alarmed.
Quin touched her knee. "Are you okay, uh...um..."
Dang. What the heck was her name again?
"Kimber!" Quin caught herself quickly. "Yes, um..."
KImber looked down out of shyness or embarrassment; Quin couldn't tell.
"I have scoleciphobia," she muttered. "Fear of worms."
"Oh." Quin said it very good-naturally. "You know, I have a fear of deep water."
Kimber gazed at her in surprised, then turned her attentions to Noa.
"That's the tallest daemon I've ever seen," she said. Quin grinned as Noa looked sheepishly at the ground.
"I know, right? It's really a pain when you want to go on a carnival ride or something."
