Urgh... the library. "Yeah... it's... too quiet." she said, glancing at the floor slightly. "And um... I don't like reading... I'm dyslexic." Eurgh, and it was a weird thing to have. Especially somewhere like this where everyone seemed so clever. Not that it mattered - she just had to do extra studying... and hope that the words didn't start swimming around on the page. She didn't mind instructions... at least they were worded simply and arranged logically. It was when she had to contend with long passages of text that all the letters started dancing and moving around. She shifted uncomfortably and played with the ends of her hair. "I don't really talk about it much - just try and avoid reading." she added.

"And you." she replied. Yup, gotta be polite to the Head Boy, right? Right. Only she wished she hadn't mentioned the dyslexia... she'd just felt the need to explain her aversion to the Library. "So, I guess you like Astronomy then?" Because she wasn't the only one far away from her common room...


No Professor has been as clumsy as Dodson was. Of course, it was another kind of clumsiness. But he had no idea Roslund had it in him, "He is?" for someone who was around telescopes and delicate instruments it seemed rather odd that he was also rather clumsy. Funny. Yet odd. "Never noticed before." Really, Treyen didn't notice many things.

Er, wasn't that the point of libraries, though? The quietness? So one could study? Oh, she didn't like--Ah. Got it. "I see." Bummer, though, because the library had a VERY interesting collection. To a person who liked books, that is. "That's completely understandable." That she both didn't talk about it, and that she avoided reading.

He wasn't commenting on it. Nor mentioning it to anyone else.

There was a smile on Treyen's face and he nodded in the obvious agreement they seemed to have about...meeting? Right. Whatever. Astronomy? It wasn't his favorite. But he liked it. "I do. I sort of enjoy the quietness of it sometimes." When one wanted to think, then it was very welcomed. If not, then Astronomy was extremely nerve-wracking because there was very little to do...practice-wise, anyway.
