Lily's Library Half an hour after leaving Jackie and Mickey
WITH THE LIBRARY BEING THE LAST STOP OF THE TOUR, Lily opened the door and stepped inside with a bounce. "Ta-da!" She stood at the entry level of her library and watched with anticipating eyes as Rose took it all in. The Doctor had made himself busy with unnamed business which allowed Lily to give the tour on her own. She was thankful for it and knew the Doctor had to suspect that she needed this alone time with her sister.
Rose's eyes moved around the enormous space- from the four levels of bookcases full of books to the extraordinary ceiling that sent her staggering back at the view. "How could you ever leave?"
Lily chuckled and admitted. "It's hard at times. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent here."
"And he just gave it to you?"
Rose had abandoned her duffle in a bedroom just down the corridor from the library that she claimed as hers. Lily still had her duffle, the strap over her shoulder and it hitting her hip when she walked. "More like gave me a job." She took in all the books. "This place was in shambles when I first saw it. The books were in no kind of order. All my free time has been spent here trying to work on organizing while the Doctor watched me work, critiquing. All in good spirits though. It makes me want to work harder. Show him up." She started down the way towards the door to her bedroom. "Come on- you can help me unpack."

Rose's reaction to Lily's tower-esk bedroom was just as astonishing as the library reveal. They unpacked, like how Lily helped Rose fix up her new TARDIS room, and chatted about all that Lily missed- an entire year's worth of memories she'll never have. "Shareen and I stopped talking, by the way." Lily paused shelving her books at Rose's reveal. "She started these rumors about you after you left and I wasn't having it."
