"I could just show you if you had a selfspace... I'm not sure how to describe it otherwise."

"So it's not, say, physical objects like fangs or blood?"

"Well - sort of. It's... like your reflection is glowing, except not quite, and there are parts of it that look like they have magic tucked away in them, and now that I know some of what the magic does I can tell where it keeps those parts." She pauses consideringly, then adds, "It does have fangs, now that I look, but they're not out right now."

"Ah. Yes. ...Another magical feature of vampires is that we can be...influenced by the blood we drink. The effect is entirely additive; drinking the blood of a genius may temporarily boost one's cognition, but drinking the blood of a dullard will not impair it. However, animals are sufficiently different that any additive effect has...unpredictable results, which is why the blood of humans--and relevantly humanlike creatures--is necessary."

"...What sorts of things does drinking the blood of animals do?"

"In mild cases--extraneous instincts. In more dramatic cases--overwhelming compulsion to follow those instincts, and occasionally physical transformations."

"That sounds really inconvenient."

"Hence why we try to avoid it, yes."

Nod.

And here is the "supplies for visiting humans" room.

It contains so many supplies! She stands still and looks at them.

"Take whatever you want, within reason. If there's anything you don't know what it is, feel free to ask."

She nods absently, gazing at the things. There are many things. (It's easier to inspect their reflections than the things themselves.)

Well, if she's going to be doing that, Kanimir studies the quartz crystals some more.

Eventually she goes around and collects some objects which she bundles up carefully to take back to her room.

"If you are hungry or wish to freshen up now, I'll leave you to that. Otherwise, I should probably show you which sections of the library are off-limits sooner rather than later."

"I can look at the library now," she says.

Alright. Back to the library!

The sections she's not permitted to access are mostly contiguous, but there's a bookshelf she's allowed in the middle of them. She isn't forbidden from entering the restricted areas, just reading from them.

She looks around and takes careful note of which shelves are and are not allowed, then nods. "Okay, I'll remember."

It shouldn't be hard--there's active magic on each not-allowed shelf.

She gets distracted trying to figure out what the magic does.

The shelves themselves--do not want to allow the books on them to be removed, except by their owner and specified other person(s). The books, likewise and separately, do not wish to allow their contents to be accessed by any means except by their owner and specified other person(s).

...That's interesting. Once she realizes what that part of the magic on the shelves is for, she picks a reflection-book off a reflection-shelf just to see what it does, then peers at the cover to figure out that part too. But she did agree not to read any of these, so she puts the reflection back without trying to open it.

Meanwhile, in the real world, she's just sort of standing there.

This is an entirely reasonable response to being surrounded by a large number of books.

And once the reflection-book is back on its reflection-shelf, she blinks and looks at her host and smiles.
