What started out as lightly skimming the words for anything of value turned into the Gryffindor leaning in as close as possible, trying to digest word after word quick enough to get all the information at once. This was brilliant and terrifying all at the same time. Most of it could take a bit of practice but it wasn't something she wasn't prepared for. Luckily, she'd brought along some parchment and a quill to take notes of the more important things she would need for later when she was back up in her Dorm.

The sudden screeching of the feline caused her to stop scribbling mid-sentence, wondering if something else was after him. Following the gaze, she spotted a book wiggling from the space she'd just removed the one she was currently reading. How...curious......

Her brows rose at the giggling book as it descended and made a new home for itself by her feet, that was when Felix got cross. His fur bristled dramatically and the sounds he made were nothing if not violent. "Relax." Lex told him, eyeing the strange book. "It's just a bunch of fairytales." Nothing to be scared of there and there was real reading to be done so she turned to her own book again. Felix wasn't nearly as convinced and continued his hissing til she was forced to look at the book again. It...had a weird glow to it, didn't it?

Lex tilted her head curiously and regarded the odd piece of literature. It was almost...like it....was calling her...--but that was ridiculous. She wasn't here long enough for the books to know her name. Still....Lex reached a hand toward the book which Felix swatted at with extracted claws. The Gryffindor drew her wand. "So help me, I will use this." It calmed him enough for her to pull the book to her and flop it on her lap. "There, see? Just a book on princesses and knights in shining armour. Ridiculous but hardly dangerous." She pried it open, idly wondering if there were pictures. Pictures made everything better.
