[ John is absolutely not taking the toad. He's barely tolerating his rat. Have you seen the fact that he wears a suit and gels his hair every day? A toad does not fit his image.
But he does reshelve the book and follow along. The rat comes back to them, and then scurries ahead, then returns, then leaves, clearly not patient with the pace of the toad. The pace is slow for John too with his long legs (and probably Gorgug for that matter), but he knows how to be patient and wait for it to hop along.
The geology section is fascinating. It's almost like a museum library hybrid. He knows better than to touch things, but he does take a moment to lean in and look at a deep blue stone that shimmers in the light from his robe, almost like the sun on water. That is, however, not the purpose of being here, so he only takes just a moment. ]
This would be a good place to hide something like a shard.
