[ Good etiquette and social manners are both things that Thancred possesses as a requirement of his job, given that you often get far more with honey than vinegar. That's a lesson he learned long ago. He is not above making a simple request from one of the mages.
Yet despite that, his new friend seems to have an entirely different idea in mind. Instead of reaching up herself, which might have required a little hop in order to actually reach the book in question, she decides to use him.
He could protest, make a scene, sputter or hiss at her and ask her what gave her the right, but... he just has this effect on women, it seems. (Not quite the effect he's going for, and Urianger must never hear of this, but that is one small upside of him being trapped her alone.) Now that he's been lifted up the book sits right in front of him, in easy reach, and so for lack of any better option he grabs it. ]
Exciting as this is, I believe you can put me down now.
[ He glances over his shoulder and down at her with an easy smile. ]
