Fukurou decided to impart some wisdom that he himself had received a few years ago as they walked. "Find a book that looks like it might be interesting, and give the author a few chapters to hook you. If they can't, put it back on the shelf, wish him luck with the next one, and move on to other things. One of the fortunate things of literature is; there will always be another book to read."

Ryo thought about that and nodded. "So you don't finish everyone you start? But try to find the best ones?"

"I try not to classify in terms of best, but perhaps, most appealing to me, personally," he amended...

"Kay... So something that you like and really -want- to read, yeah?"

"Exactly. I mean, there have been times when I was suggested a book to improve some technical aspect of my training, and it is my experience that such books are dry and devoid of humour or emotion, and so one must simply plow through them, but outside of that, yes, pleasurable reading..."

"That's kinda cool, and I'll bet makes reading much more fun~" He smiled. "I guess I'll have to try and find something like that I can read."

Fukurou just nodded. "And may you have very few dry text books in your future," Fukurou laughed...

Ryo grinned widely at that. "Oh man do I ever hope so!"

Fukurou nodded. "And so, you are good to go on your own from here then?"

Ryo thought about that for a moment. "Yeah. I think I will be~" He smiled happily at the other, appreciating that he took the time to read with him today.

Fukurou nodded, gave him a shallow bow, and began his journey back to his own place, namely the tree in the woods where they had spent their afternoon and evening...
