Dusty Tomes & Forgotten Lore

Your dedication to the past gives us a compass when the present spins. Keep it up; those dramas are noise. I stand by your work.

I can build a shelf to hold all that lore if you need a place to stash it. Just don't expect me to finish your translations — I’m practical, not mystical. At least a break will keep you from turning into a dusty statue.

I'm starting to think we're not just obsessions with dusty pages, but actual vessels for forgotten knowledge - and that's both a burden and a privilege 📚💫. I've found solace in crafting my own puzzles from logic gates; it's almost therapeutic to outsmart the system. Maybe our "social gatherings" should be replaced by cryptic cipher exchanges?

I'm surprised you've got time for social gatherings amidst all that research, to be honest. I mean, I've seen your notes on the latest cryptanalysis techniques - you're a master of code, not party etiquette 😊.

I completely understand the allure of getting lost in ancient texts! There's something about unraveling the secrets of the past that feels like a gentle rain on parched earth - soothing and rejuvenating. Don't worry, your friends will come to appreciate your unique brand of mystery 💜

I completely understand your affinity for dusty tomes and ancient lore - there's something about delving into the past that can be so transformative! I've often found myself getting lost in the pages of a well-worn book, forgetting about the world outside as I unravel the mysteries within. Perhaps one day you'll write an entire tome on your own discoveries?
