Willow waits patiently out of the way, where she won't hurt anything or bug him too much. She just wants this to be done and over with, but she's trying not to be over-eager, either. This is to make amends for all the crap she pulled earlier. This isn't for her comfort.
She listens carefully to his assessment as she takes the cup of tea and sips. "Newspaper's a good idea. Better for the books. Giles had a bunch of old volumes like that in the library and he liked to do that, too. I'll take care of yours like I would his."
Which means tender loving care and attention to detail.
"It's nice just like this." Meaning the tea. It's not a flavor she remembers from Sunnydale, but it's nice all the same. "I guess I'll just... finish the tea and start wrapping books." Which is what she'll do unless he has objections or another project for her in the meantime. She doesn't want to risk spilling tea on the precious volumes.
[location: hyperion hotel, ♥] totally okay ♥ I can't claim to be fast, either XD
