At some point while Nilin was still in the early stages of rebuilding an identity (an awkward time, don't ask about it), she discovered that she had kind of an affinity for classic literature. It just so happens she's in today for a specific book, and when she finds the place where it is supposed to be there is a man there. Reading the only copy.

Nilin mills around for about a minute, pretending to look at other books, but finally she gets impatient and just asks him, "excuse me, are you going to buy that?"
