It felt weird to be here in Castle Wyvern, without the stone building's usual occupants present. But, as he reminded himself, someone had to look after it, since Goliath and Elisa were no longer able to, and he was the only person left on board from that world.

Peter entered the library, and, given the lack of light to read by, used his Spider-Signal to hunt around for the lightswitch, and, once he found it, pulled out a book at random before starting to read.

"Considering you came to me and apologized from coming in, I already figured that much out." He answered. As Starfire's thought process made itself known, Peter started looking a little bit mortified. "...I kinda thought there might've been, because Beast Boy seemed kinda mouthy like that. Just forget I said anything about it."

Starfire nodded, then shook her head vehemently. "No, he has not! Beast Boy is my friend. He is playful and sometimes engages in the role of the trickster, but he would never seek to injure your reputation."

She'll let the subject drop now. "How many of the books have you read?"

"Not a lot. My area of expertise and interest is science, and while there's more than a few books on that here, they're kinda outnumbered by the history books, magical tomes, and whatnot."

Ah, she understood. "The occupants studied magic? How interesting!"

She flitted about, briefly glancing at the spines. "Then you work in the departments of the sciences?"

"Yep. Mostly a chemist, which is actually how I managed to make up for my lack of natural webbing." he replied.

"So, uh, is Starfire you real name or just your superhero name?"

"You created your own webs?" Fascinating! So he's well-versed in tools, like Robin.

Starfire nodded, a small grin on her face. She heard that question about her name rather often. "It is the closest translation of my name in your language. On my planet, it is pronounced Koriand'r."

"It's a heck of a lot better than what mine means. Much like Charlie Brown at Halloween, all I got was a translation of Rock." He quipped.

Starfire disagrees.

"To be compared to a rock is not bad! It means that you are strong and stable, does it not?"
