Harry's expression remained somewhat grim and blank as he moved Roach into her stable and climbed down off her, carefully beginning to work on getting her saddle off. His thoughts were far away, and they only did return to him when he felt Aziza's soft hand on his cheek and her lips against his own. Though the dark thoughts lingered, he leaned slowly into the kiss, savouring the warm feeling in the moment. She was like sunshine in a storm, like good times forgotten and suddenly remembered, she was everything he could have possibly desired and everything he could ever need. She was far better than he deserved.

As she pulled away, his focus was on her, in only moments she had drawn him back from the darkness, shown him the way to the light and kept him from being swallowed up. He found a smile slip upon his face as she spoke, and it was not a fake one. [b][color=686F91]"You do more than enough just by being here..."[/color][/b] He knew each word he said was true and from the heart. Harry had come back to Egypt to write and to remember, hoping dearly that it would bring some peace to him, and yet she had done just that in a heartbeat. As Harry stared into Aziza's eyes, he knew that he had not come to Egypt to write his story, he had come to find her.

[b][color=686F91]"But, a quiet place to sit and rest wouldn't be remiss..."[/color][/b] Harry admitted quietly, catching himself before he said or did anything far too bold for that moment. He did not know how much time they may have had before they would eventually be off on their expedition, or before they were dragged away into some other danger, but in what time they had he didn't wish to leave Aziza's side. And perhaps more importantly than that, he wanted to rest.

Silence engulfed William for a while, hundreds of thoughts running through his head as he sat behind the stacks. He tried his best to ignore them all, the frustration and the irritation had been more or less commonplace but now it was different. It took time, far longer than William would have liked, but eventually, he let out a long sigh as he lifted his head from his hands and sat up straight, looking over the shelves.

He knew a distraction would prove far better than anything at dealing with the frustration in his mind then, and so he chose to get to work. Standing, William moved to the shelves, searching for any tomes of use to their expedition. He figured Vera would have already found some and likely had them with the others, but he set about finding whatever might have been of use anyway. Though he was certainly not a traditional Archaeologist, William was no stranger to a library hunt.
