Walking down the small aisles of the bookstore, Lincoln squeezed between shelves as he hummed along to to the music playing through his earbuds. Picking up a copy of Attachments, he tucked it under his arms as he rolled his hips and shimmied along the aisle looking for another book to add to his growing pile.

Singing into the book, he shuffled a little as he picked up the Will of the Empress and a couple of fantasy novels he thought Lee might like. Spinning in place, he turned to see the very wide eyes of Mrs Murphy who lived upstairs and always got him to help her upstairs with her groceries.

"Morning Mrs Murphy, lovely day." Lincoln began, cheeks turning a little red as he realised that he had been dancing in the aisles Again. Making a face at her, he got out her way as he grabbed a copy of Lee's favourite author's new book. Looking up sheepishly, Lincoln just nodded at the other customers (and owner) in the store and wanted to find a gigantic hole for himself to crawl into. "Great. This was a great idea. Should not have left the house."

"A little bit yeah, though I'm not yet out of bookshelf space. Mostly because I keep making more to fit them all in," Lincoln said with a warm, sheepish smile. "I'm a bit of a comic nerd."

"Oh, like...uh...Batman?" Caleb asks, trying to remember. He hasn't seen many comic books, but he thinks he knows some of them: Batman, Superman, Wonderful Woman. Or something.

"Yeah, like Batman. Have you never read a comic?" Lincoln asked, looking bemused at the younger man and his apparent hesitation on Batman. It was Batman, everyone knew Batman right? Lincoln was pretty sure the world would implode if Caleb hadn't heard about Batman.

"Not really," Caleb admits, looking a little sheepish. In the months he'd had to catch up with the world, this was one thing that had missed his radar. "I saw a movie, once..."

"You saw a Batman movie once or just you've only watched a movie once?" Lincoln asked, thinking the two things were very different. He could get the Batman movie thing but only ever watching one movie completely blew Lincoln's nerdy brain.
