Fred looked up and smiled, jumping up she opened the door and smiled, "I invite you in...no wait you're not a vampire..I forget...thanks for coming I know bringin' the books up must be awful for ya! I appreciate it!"
Fred finally noticed he was nearly dropping them, and took some from him, "Sorry...so what are we looking to find?"

Fred threw open the door, a big smile on her face. "I invite you in...no wait you're not a vampire..I forget...thanks for coming I know bringin' the books up must be awful for ya! I appreciate it!"
Wesley smiled and tried to make his way into the room, a few books sliding precariously on the top of the stack. Fred took a few of them and he set the others down on a desk. "Thanks."
"Sorry...so what are we looking to find?"
He glanced up at her as he searched for a certain book. "Well, Fred, they've sent Faith to another dimension, so we've got to find a way to bring her back. We don't know for sure which dimension she's been sent to, but I've compiled a list of those Wolfram & Hart are most likely to use. We can start from there, and narrow it down when we get more information."

Fred pushed her glasses up and smiled at him, he had lovely eyes she thought to herself as he spoke to her. She put the books she had onto the table next to where Wesley had set his.
"I hate to think of her being in another dimension...she must be so afraid! I hope we find everything we need soon...it's horrid to be all alone, and scared..."
Her voice trailed off and she looked down a moment lost in her memories, looking up she forced a smile, "So where do ya think we should begin?"

"I hate to think of her being in another dimension...she must be so afraid! I hope we find everything we need soon...it's horrid to be all alone, and scared..."
He nodded gently. "Don't worry, Fred. We'll find her. Angel's working as hard as he can. We all are. We'll get her back. Promise." He felt his stomach twist at the words. They were all going to such ends to help this girl...who had done so much to them in the past...
He shook his head and looked back at Fred, who seemed to have just snapped herself out of her own little reverie.
"So where do ya think we should begin?"
He looked to the stack of books, pulling one off and handing it to her. "We'll start with your most basic hell dimensions." He pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket and put it on top of the book. "My sources tell me that Wolfram & Hart are most...fond of these dimensions. I'm thinking maybe they've established contacts in them."

Fred took the book from him, thankful to have him to help her find what they needed. He was so kind, and quick to put her fears to rest. She made her way over to the bed and sat down, her legs crossed, and began to leaf through it's pages, occasionally writing points of interest to her on the wall above the headboard.
She looked up and smiled at Wesley after a short time, "Wow it's scary to think of all these dimesions just waitin' for people to fall into, or be sucked into...I guess the next question would be how we get her from wherever she is?..."

Wesley watched Fred make her way over to the bed, flipping her book open. Then he picked up a book of his own and sat in a chair, turning through some pages himself. He made a few notes in a small notebook. Which one of the dimensions would Wolfram & Hart send Faith to? He'd tried to sound confident when talking with Fred, but he really didn't know where to start. True, he had the list of 'preferred' dimensions, but what if there were more that the firm didn't often use?
It was pretty much touch-and-go until their lawyer 'friend' came through with more information.
Fred began to speak, and Wesley looked up at her, peering over the top of his glasses.
"Wow it's scary to think of all these dimesions just waitin' for people to fall into, or be sucked into...I guess the next question would be how we get her from wherever she is?..."
He shrugged lightly. "There are lots of different dimensions. Most which...aren't really accessable from this one. And those tend to be the worst, so you don't have to worry about them." He glanced at his book. "Most dimensions can be accessed through a spell, but some need a portal. It all depends on which one she's in." He looked up at her. "We find that out, and I'm sure I could conjure up whatever we needed."

Fred smiled at Wesley, "Phew I sure am glad you're here to help...I wouldn't know where to start! I mean sure I know where I am in physics theorum, but...well I just hope I can help...I like Faith a lot, she seemed nice...I hoped we could be friends...I don't have many of them!"

Wesley gave her a smile, not entirely used to Fred's babbling yet, but finding it endearing.
"Well, you've only just come back, Fred. I'm sure once you're more...comfortable with the outside world, you'll make plenty of friends. I don't see how any one could resist you." His face reddened a little with that last statement, and he looked down at his book to cover it.

Fred's eyes widened and she blushed, he was very cute, but Fred was sure a man like Wesley wouldn't even look twice at her like that.
She giggled and looked back down at the book, "Well sure give me time and I might be brave enough to go outside...hope so I am well aware how crazy it is to be couped up in here!" Fred rolled her eyes and giggled

"Well sure give me time and I might be brave enough to go outside...hope so I am well aware how crazy it is to be couped up in here!"
Wesley found himself grinning when Fred giggled. "Well, you've been through quite a lot, Fred. No one can really expect you just to...step back into things as if you never left. Takes some time to process everything, I'm sure." He glanced at the window. "And maybe when you're ready to go outside, I know of a great taco shop I could take you to," he said softly, giving her another small smile before looking back to his book.

Fred's eyes opened wide, "Tacos!? I tried to make some in Pylea with a tree bark...it didn't work out very well though!" Fred rolled her eyes and smiled, "Do you go out much?"
For some reason she felt drawn to him, and wanted to know Wesley better.

"Tacos!? I tried to make some in Pylea with a tree bark...it didn't work out very well though!"
Wesley gave her a smile that was really half a grimace. "That's...interesting."
"Do you go out much?"
He looked up at her and shrugged. "Not so much, no. I go to the pub sometimes, mostly to throw darts and such. I've never really been one to go out and party. Too much work to do." Damn, that excuse sounded lame even to him.

Fred looked at Wesley with concern, "You put work above going out? I mean I don't want to sound rude, but...well I guess it is important work.."
Though Fred really thought the opposite was true, she did not want to push any of her new friends away.

"You put work above going out? I mean I don't want to sound rude, but...well I guess it is important work.."
Wesley looked down at his book. "Well...Let's just say that the Council didn't really like for their...lackeys to be spending too much time fraternizing. They believed that it would let their guard down. And then they'd have to find a new operative, and that's money wasted." He scoffed, then looked up at Fred, his expression softening. "But, it's a bit different here. At least Angel allows us some time to ourselves. You know, when the world isn't ending and all."

Fred smiled at him, suddenly realising there was an actual good reason for his avoiding going out. She on the other hand must seem very strange to her, and looking about the messy room she could see why.
"Well staying in seems to make us both feel safer...and next time the world isn't ending we should go out somewhere...together..." Fred lifted the book she was reading, so he wouldn't see her blush
