"You start reading, I'm gonna run and grab some parchment to take notes!" he told her, jumping up and running over to the stairs. He was running so fast, in fact, he stumbled over the coffee table a bit, knocking over a vase in the process. Ehh, he'd fix it later--he had more important things to do!
In an instant, Cale had disappeared up the stairs.
Anna nodded when Cale mentioned how she'd made it to the Common Room. "I'm sorry I kept you waiting. I bumped into Liesel in the corridors, and she insisted that we have a mini catch-up chat session," Anna explained. She opened the book to the first page, looking up at Cale and waiting to see whether or not he wanted to be the first to read. Apparently not, since he needed to run upstairs and retrieve his parchment to take notes.
"Okay, maybe when you get back I'll be done with letter one, and I can possibly give you a little bit of information," she said. She turned back to read, but jumped slightly when she heard a crash near the stairs. Without turning around, she could already guess the "who" and the "what." "Be careful, Cale," she playfully called out. "Don't worry about the vase, either. We'll get it later..."
"Oh, hey, Astrid!" Anna greeted. "I'm so glad you could join us! Maybe working together we can all figure this thing out!"
