[ Raising an eyebrow at this message. It's a little formal, like being summoned by a queen (he's probably been summoned this way before by his wife, but he doesn't remember). That being said, he actually feels pleased about Vanessa contacting him, like he wouldn't mind seeing her right now. He's in a surprisingly good mood. She might even see Lucas smile in person! ]
[ Lucas has been in Reims long that it doesn't take him long to narrow down where the library could be, finding it soon enough. Toto is with him... and hopefully Vanessa likes dogs, otherwise Lucas will send him away. A dog wouldn't normally be allowed in a library, but this one - formerly working with the police - is well-behaved. ]
i'm here. [ He types, not sure whereabouts she is. We're here, he should have typed, but the dog is a surprise. ]
( though waiting for him vanessa had gone looking through the library stacks again, seeing what new information she could discern. there were many books, most that vanessa couldn't read with them being written in french. she's hoping that something might stand out.
vanesssa doesn't get far into her search when she receives lucas's message, pulling herself away from the stacks to return to the front of the library. it's only when he's in view that she types a message back to him )

( in terms of vanessa's invitation there's no need for it but she didn't know what could happen in this place )
