He stumbled back, grabbing onto the shelf as he fell. Basically, this whole fucking section of books has fallen onto him
Cricket: Eep! He rushes over to Azriel, pulling books off of him so he can get up. He offers Azriel a hand, smiling at him
Cricket: Hey-you should be more careful...I don't mind cleaning up but you could've hurt yourself-these hardcovers hurt like hell, I would know...
He winks at Azriel
"U-h..I...t-t-thank you.."
Cricket: No problem! So-are you looking for something specific...? I'm more of a fan of fantasy novels, but there's definitely some great reads in science fiction...
He starts collecting the books, stacking them neatly
"Oh...n-no..I just...wanted to find s-omething to read..""
Cricket: Oh! Well-hm...oh, I know!
He hands Azriel a book called Strange the Dreamer
Cricket: This is one of my favorites...
"Oh.."
Cricket nods happily
Cricket: Mhm! It's a really great read...
"O-Oh..well thank you.."
Cricket: That's what I'm here for, isn't it?
He starts to walk over to the counter
Cricket: So I'll just check that out for you...do you have a library card?
