Armand imitates the gesture with a faintly amused smirk, snapping his fingers as if to underscore the pointβ yes, just like that!
"No one will stop you from reading as many of them as you'd like, as often as you would like," he confirms patiently, nodding his head. "All of it free of charge."
And he could go on even further to mention, too, how little interest the Fae seem to have in actual money β the standard coin of the realm, as it were β but then that begins hedging into somewhat dicier territory that he isn't all that interested in being the one who has to actually explain how the purely transactional economy here operates. Someone else can have that honour.
"I read books of all kinds," he adds at length, after quietly pondering on her question. "Whatever is needed and whatever my mood is calling for."
Which is true, mostly; not every genre is created equal, obviously, but Armand doesn't necessarily have to like a book to still read it cover-to-cover. Reading, for him, is something that's done only occasionally for actual leisure, and more often to satisfy his ever expanding and unquenchable curiosity.
