Puppeteer was at the library looking for some books on learning English. Actually, he was hoping to find a book on speaking English. He could understand and read English just fine. It was speaking it that was the problem.
His lack of speaking English had never really bothered him, but Tony and Medda thought it would be best if he started communicating more. He needed friends they would say. And, the only way he could make friends was if he could speak English which was the current problem. He sighed. Maybe the library would give what he needed.

"Is there anything I can help you find?"
Puppeteer jumped slightly. He hadn't expected anyone to talk to him in the library. "Scuzați-mă?" He scrunched up his face slightly at his use of Romanian. "Ah... sorry," he said slowly. "Just... rooking for book on Engrish."

"What language are ya needing it translated from?"
Puppeteer furrowed his eyebrows, carefully concentrating on each English word. "I... do not need trans-ra-tion," he said slowly. "Read Engrish fine."
He sighed. It took alot of work to speak in English! And he sounded horrible, he just knew it.
"Just need Engrish book," he managed to say though with much frustration.

"Some parts might make more sense than others, but it looks like it's one of the only ones like it that we have."
Puppeteer sighed. Of course, there would not be many books that could help him, but he had to try. It really wasn't for himself, but rather for Medda and Toby. He would hate to disappoint them.
"Ah... well, thank you. It will do," he said politely and accepted the book she offered.

"No problem. Just let me know if there's anything else that I can help you with, alright?"
Puppeteer returned her small smile. "Thank you..."
He turned away from her and found himself a quiet spot to read. He was good at reading. The only problem was speaking... which he hoped this book could help him with. Quite sure that no one was too close to him to be bothered, he worked on reading out loud but softly. He struggled but moved forward diligently. He was doing this for Medda after all. He owed to her for all that she did for him.
