Pao slipped in to the library. He didn't come in here much, but it seemed like the best place to meet Alec. They were going to exchange cryptograms for Arithmancy. And.. since the Common Room just wasn't an option right now.. It's really too bad. I liked our Common Room's study tables area. Nicer atmosphere. It's just too quiet in here. Whereas he could be in a homey atmosphere, with just enough background noise to keep your brain stimulated--but not too much to be distracting.

He sensed someone looking at him. "Hey, Alec!" he said quietly, waving at the Seeker as he walked toward the table where Pao sat.
