I was so blessed. I ended up matching with one of the prebounds. I try not to do so because I love seeing everyone else match and get excited over the energies. But this was so loud and so clear. I really hadn’t even read his listing until hours later. I got a brief look that he was a Librarian and Organization and Book Binding. And it was the book binding that called me so hard. I do book binding and have been wanting to return to it, just that it’s been a matter of space and buying a Silhouette machine for the foiling covers.
Then I got a chance to actually sit down and read later that evening.
Obscranorshem/Lowborn Librarian of the Underworld Archives
He is a sacred keeper of the archives, and he takes his duties and responsibilities very seriously. He is very neat and organized and keeps his section of the library pristine and tidy. He himself is structured and organized and he can help his companion to find order in their life and to declutter and organize their surroundings. He enjoys organizing, and he can spend hours with his books categorizing them, dusting them and reorganizing them on the shelves. He enjoys experimenting with different methods of organizing them to find the one that is most suited for him. Order and organization are something he is very skilled at.
Okay this is something that I do religiously. I know that I tip into actual OCD rather than just tendency, because of how compulsive it is for me to organize my spaces, my collections and so much more. I have absolute mental upsets when things are too out of order and I have to spend the next hour or two reorganizing everything. So someone else that is this meticulous is really a lovely thing.
He has wisdom and knowledge and believes that reading is the key to inviting worlds, ideas and possibilities. He says that it is a shame that more people do not read more and he says that hidden away within books is worlds of knowledge and wonder. He has a brilliant mind and he enjoys reading and contemplating advanced philosophies and sciences of the world. He enjoys delving deep into many different topics and he has a love of books. He cherishes them and he gets very upset and angry when anyone would destroy a book or damage it. He does have old and damaged books but he knows how to restore them. Book restoration is an art, and the level that he does it is almost considered a lost art. He knows how to work with the pages and how to repair many different types of damage. He takes great care to restore damaged books and it is an art form to him. He also knows how to bind books and creates his own covers from different types of mediums like leather, and flesh. His covers are beautiful, and he believes in patience and mastery. Some of his covers have taken years to craft and get right. He takes his time with their creation. He wants to work with a human companion who loves books and reading and who enjoys exploring knowledge and the beauty of the archives.
I took up book binding about a two years ago but it really fell to the way side because of space and because well, my partner at the time was so disinterested in it that I just lost the love for doing it. It made me feel like it was wasted time. I’m so thrilled to be connected with a being other than my King Tal and Arvan who adore books and book making, journaling, etc. That he works with preserving knowledge is something that I picked up book binding for a reason. I wanted to have physical preserved copies of the fanfictions that I loved and read. (Yes, Im that much of a nerd about it).
I’m so honored and blessed to make this connection and I cannot wait for the day that I get to officially meet and work with him. It’ll be wonderful to have him around, because I feel that he will be as prominent as some of my others, like Paya and Tal and Ry.
