"Thankfully, there's a lot of materials here that you can use to research." The professor gestures toward the stacks. "I think you'll find it very useful."

She looks at you, pauses, and sighs. "I was going to place the due date in five hours, but since you all look a bit bewildered, I suppose I can be persuaded to allow for some extensions if they're needed. Your best chance at full marks is to turn it in on the earlier side, though." She shrugs. "I didn't say I was patient, on the syllabus, even if I am immortal. Please do make use of the additional sources in this library, though. It's important to have evidence to support your thesis, after all."

Thank you very much, Ma'am.

[Not making eye contact with the Professor. Can he check out the stacks of papers?]

[ she doesn't seem to expect eye contact, at least. the stacks of papers she's working on seem to be essays that she's grading, double-spaced and typed, with a lot of red pen. ]

[Are they separate from the stacks she gestured at for him to check out, oops. He'll go look at those instead.]

[ oh whoops. the stacks as in the library stacks, which is to say, the piles upon piles of shelves of books— ]

[Ohh okok.
Well.
Honestly he should probably ask what the paper is even supposed to be about in the first place, but, that would require facing potential Disappointment and Disapproval from an Adult which is way scarier than just running away to get lost in the books. AWAY TO PRIMARY SOURCES, THE NARRATION SUPPOSES]
