"Not so far. If someone decided to just dig inside a book to hide it in, we might be here a long time."

They definitely don't have time to go through all the books.

"Are you quite sure your spell won't help?"

[reparo]

She is rather good with an Accio, having taught the bloody Boy-Who-Lived how to perform it in fourth year, extracurricularly. But, again, knowing the object is the trick.

She can't shout for the key to the House of Ravens without drawing some attention, but she could summon keys. And at least that would let them find the key faster.

The exit from this place, however... "If I do this, we'll have no way of putting back whatever objects come at us. It will leave a big mark - and potentially we'd have to run immediately."

[beitangmoran]

He looks around at the slightly ransacked shelves.

"We'll be found out sooner or later anyway, and I don't think we were planning to clean up after ourselves?"

[reparo]

"We didn't take that many," she mutters under her breath, either an excuse for her own conscience or to reassure him that maybe they could not be found. They might not.

"I have an idea of how to make a quick getaway, but I'll have to find Miss Eda first. You - would you be comfortable with letting me Apparate us? It..." Gods, explain Apparition to a non-wizard. She's fairly sure Moran's not entirely untalented himself, but they might as well be speaking different magic languages too.

"It's a spell, it transports people from one spot to another, but the caster has to know where they're going. I could try and do it outside the libraries, and we wouldn't need to sneak past anyone."

[beitangmoran]

"I..."

Please allow him a second to gather himself and try to make sense of that. A bit like Five's teleportation, but different he assumes.

"Sure, that's fine. We don't have much of a choice any way."

[reparo]

"I promise I know what I'm doing." She's side-alonged with Harry and Ron on the run, and only once did one of them get splinched. But there are bottles of Dittany in her bag for that anyway, and she is confident enough in her skills to subject what is, to her magic at least, essentially a muggle to Apparition.

"Find a remote-looking aisle, I will find Miss Eda."

[beitangmoran]

Remote... he'll settle for as far away from the door as possible and also not within view of a window.

... And of course browse the shelves while waiting. What else is there to do?
