[At first Giorno doesn't understand. There are books everywhere, aren't there? He knows Kaz can read, can do figures, at least that much and he'd expect much more. So there's really no way someone like Wylan wouldn't have access to books.]
[. . . Access.]
[Giorno looks at the spread on the table. There are plenty of books, true. But most of them are audiobooks. Some video, too. A wide variety of media, few of which are traditional text. And he realizes he's been assuming, like an idiot.]
[He squeezes Wylan's arm with his own, but doesn't allow his expression to change. He won't let even an ounce of pity show, especially not when he doesn't feel it, not really. It'd be like pitying Narancia, which would be ridiculous. Some people can do things others can't. That's all it is.]
I'm sure we could find a way to send some of this with you, if you really wanted to go. I've done worse than steal from a library, and so have you.
