| | Library Bookshelves
Tall bookshelves are scattered throughout the library, the smooth wood gleaming brightly in the sun that shines in through the stained glass windows. Tens of thousands of books rest upon the shelves, all waiting to be explored by eager minds. They stretch along the walls, filling each shelf and dark corner. A catalogue system has been put in place to ensure that finding and retrieving a book becomes a simple task, for the sheer amount of books can be overwhelming, particularly to the youngest of students.
At the end of the first few bookshelves in the front of the library sits a pedestal. An open book with a soft golden light emitting from it, has been placed upon the pedestal. As you approach the book, you hear a rustling and then a gentle pop. “Come closer, come closer. Don’t be afraid.” A jolly voice speaks.
When you finally do peek into the pages of a book, an elderly gentleman peers out at you, one hand rising to adjust his spectacles. “Now. What book is it that you seek? I can give you a general location or a more specific one if you know the exact title of the book.”
Once you speak your request, the man ponders for a few moments before scribbling on a piece of parchment. Squinting at what he has written, he looks back up and smiles, before speaking the location of the book. “Happy reading!” He exclaims before settling back down into a still flat image. OOC: Please note that the jolly man is for entertainment purposes only. I will not be RPing him each time a student approaches asking for a book.  |

We could chart the research and alternate which mix we offer to the foals," he wrote down the ideas and started to develop a graph for them to work with. "Do we have a hypothesis? Butterbeer over fermented mash over fermented juice over a mixture? Which do you think they'll prefer?" He nodded at her and pushed the quill all the way to her with one finger.

Celandine smiled happily, enjoying actually spending time with someone that was happy to do extra researchy stuff and genuinely seemed to find it interesting. "I think initially, butterbeer will be preferred but overall a mixture will be the favourite as well as the most beneficial to their long term development and eventual diet change." A huge smile broke over her face and she picked up the sugar quill, immediately placing the tip of it in her mouth and sucking on it happily.

Celandine mumbled happily around the sugar quill. She stood up and shrunk her books so they would fit in her pockets, though most went in her bag. "Come on then!" Cela extended her hand, slightly sticky from the sugar quill.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sophia Svensson #556B2F Slytherin Fifth Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Eulalia Walles (#F48037) Hufflepuff Fourth Year | Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE! Juniper arrived in the library breathless and exhilarated, but she immediately made her way to the bookshelves. She knew what Hogwarts, A History said about the house ghosts, but there had to be more about them somewhere. And Hogwarts had been around for centuries, so surely there was not only one history of the school. Juniper quickly found a group of books that all had Hogwarts as their subject, and she began pulling the books from their shelves one by one and perusing their indexes, searching for anything she did not already know about the house ghosts.
Hmm.
After she had been there for quite some time, however, Juniper had to admit that none of the books she had looked in gave her even close to the amount of knowledge she had gained from Hogwarts, A History. It was no wonder that book was favored by most people. Juniper stood in front of the histories, weighing her options. She could give up. Orrrrr.... she could ask for help from the librarian. As much as she was scared of adults, Juniper did not particularly want to give up this quest for information. Juniper turned and headed to find the librarian and ask her help. |

Skylar walked into the library and walked towards back, looking for a good book to read. As she walked towards the back she tripped over her own feet and went tumbling into a bookshelf.

Jesse nodded, "I got a Streeler, A.K.A a giant snail. I was never one to get lucky. So now I have to look after a giant snail who loves chips and has a fiery temper. Her name's Toph, by the way," Jenn frowned and sniffed. "I guess I could take that as a complement."she said, sniffing again.
She giggled. "I am really sorry. Wait. It likes.....chips? Reminds me of someone I knew."she said, grinning. "So Toph, the fiery, chip loving, Streeler. She sounds lovely."she said, laughing.

Jesse nodded, "You should," he said with a wink "Oh, yes, she's a real dream boat," he said, laughing with her. "Chips? Who does it remind you of?" he asked curiously.

She laughed. "Then I guess I will."she said, flinging her hair back playfully.
"I could tell. You two must be just simply lovely together."she said, picturing Jess in a tux and Toph in a little white dress. She blushed at his next question. "Oh. Well, um...his name was Jaden. I kinda....well.....liked him. We where more like friends though I think. I mean, how could anyone like me?"she asked, grinning. "I mean, I'm not that pretty."she added, shrugging.

Lima sighed as she cast her hand over the spines of countless books, looking for the right one. She didn't know why she was even here. She didn't want to even be here. Why did History of Magic and Divinations have to be so boring? Why was she even taking Divinations now for that matter?
Countless random thoughts were flooding her brain and she did not know why. Maybe she was finally going to snap under all the pressure of school. So much for being the calm and cool under pressure Lima that she had assured Camira that she was. HA!
Trying to gain back her focus, she resumed her search for the elusive textbooks that she needed.

Trying to gain back her focus, she resumed her search for the elusive textbooks that she needed. Elizabeth had found herself in the library again, even though she didn't really know of anything specific she needed to research right now. All of her homework was either done or in progress, and she knew she was perfectly able of finishing those assignments with what she had already. But here she was, wandering the aisles between the bookshelves idly.
As she turned to go down another aisle, she saw a blonde Hufflepuff scanning titles ahead of her, and realized she vaguely recognized her. From the same place she had recognized Maddox from, although she hadn't gotten either of their names at the party last term. Heading toward her, she made sure her school bag was securely on her shoulder before speaking. "Hi. Having trouble?," she said with a smile. She was fairly certain, if the girl did need help, she could find whatever books. Spending so much time in here had its advantages.

Turning around, she saw that it was a blonde that looked to be a bit younger than her. "Oh, hey. Just looking for textbooks for HoM and Divinations that are being elusive." She knew that she was being vague, but her mind was so addled right now, that she didn't really care all that much at the time. "I'm working on overdrive this week! Bloody OWL studying!" Yes, rants were always nice. Not.
Then she suddenly realized that she had seen this girl before. "Do know you from somewhere?" she asked curiously, narrowing her eyes. She was trying to remember. She had definitely seen this girl's face somewhere. But where?

Then she suddenly realized that she had seen this girl before. "Do know you from somewhere?" she asked curiously, narrowing her eyes. She was trying to remember. She had definitely seen this girl's face somewhere. But where? Elizabeth grinned as the girl went into a mini-rant about books and studying. "Well, I think the HoM books are the next aisle over," she mused, thinking about when she had been working on the homework with the crazy group of Lyra, Robert, Mari, and Cayden a while back. "And Divinations is at the end of this shelf," she added, pointing a little distance down before smiling again. "And, not to sound offensive or anything, but don't you mean NEWTs? Cause I had to take OWLs last term, and you look a little older than me."
But then the girl was peering at her curiously, and she shrugged awkwardly. "I don't know," she said. "I was one of the Ravenclaw prefects last term." But then something hit her, as she remembered her conversation with Maddox in the corridor. "Or maybe you remember me from my cousin's Halloween party last term." She thought the girl had looked familiar, but it hadn't clicked until she remembered talking to Maddox. She was the third of the Princess Bride people at the party. But she thought only Rhiannon, Asteira, Mari and Nicholai had seen her there. Okay, probably Josh too, but that still was only a fraction of the people that were at his house then.

"Oh, of course!" she said putting her hand to her head in frustration. She should have remembered where the HoM books were. But at least she was in the right place for Divination. "Thanks," she said simply.
Lima was still perplexed. Until she mentioned the Halloween Party. Aaah. "Okay, I think I remember you from there. Sorta." She frowned. "Anyway, I was Princess Buttercup. You can't have missed me as I spent most of the night with my arm around a giant rat." She snorted. Typical of Mads to dress like a rodent. He was such a dork.

Elizabeth smiled as the girl thanked her. "You're welcome," she said, before scrunching her nose a little. "I've been told I spend too much time in here. So it's hard for me not to know where things are," she explained. It was amazing, though, how many people she managed to meet in the library.
She laughed a little at the frown on the girl's face when she confirmed that it had been the Halloween party. "I'm surprised to hear that people recognize me from there. Cause I thought I had remained pretty unnoticed then," she replied, before grinning as the girl explained what she had been dressed up as. "I know," she said enigmatically, before continuing. "I was a reporter. Or possibly a detective. I had had people ask me if I was both. It was kind of a confusing costume. And I hung around with Lara Croft and a Grecian person most of that party." She smiled again, before adding, "I'm Elizabeth Andrews. Although that should probably have been said a while ago."

"So you like libraries then?" she asked curiously, not sure if the girl was referring to reading a lot, or studying a lot. Or maybe both?
She raised her brow as she was told that she was remembered. But then she really shouldn't have been, seeing as the 'people dressed as characters from The Princess Bride' probably would live on in Halloween Party legend. She snorted to herself before continuing. "So what were you supposed to be then?" She vaguely remembered seeing her costume, but she couldn't remember exactly what it was supposed to be. Then she laughed at the delayed introduction. "Nice to meet you, Elizabeth. I'm Lima." She smiled. She wasn't about to tell her her last name; too many people had butchered it in the past for her to want to bother anymore.

"I like books," she said simply. If that meant she liked libraries, sure. Libraries were places that had a lot of books. But it wasn't like she had to be in a library.
At the pause during the conversation about the party, Elizabeth started feeling a little awkward, especially when the girl raised an eyebrow. "Um, I knew Nicholai. So, since you were hanging around with him, I noticed," she explained, although she felt a little glad that no other meaning had been taken from her comment. She didn't want people that she had just met getting angry with her. But then she laughed as she was asked what her costume had actually supposed to have been. "It was a reporter. Cause I want to be some sort of writer when I get out of school," she answered. As she had told Nicholai at the beginning of last term when she had met him in here. And she smiled as her late introduction didn't seem to cause too much weirdness. "Nice to meet you, Lima."

It really wasn't a bad thing, but she didn't know if Liz would take it to mean that Lima liked him; not that it would really matter anyway. "Reporter, eh? That's a nice hing to be. I want to be a musician." She smiled. She loved her music more than almost anything. "What Year are you in?" she had to ask, still not sure about that.

Elizabeth stood for a second as Lima simply nodded at her comment about liking books. She couldn't really tell if it was just a polite nod, or if the seventh year agreed with her. But after a few seconds, she leaned against the shelf, trying to get a little more comfortable.
She smiled as Lima said she missed Nicholai. "Yeah, me too. I think there're a lot of people around here who miss him, in one way or another," she said idly, before her expression turned thoughtful at the comment about her being a reporter. "That's just it," she then said. "I'm not exactly certain if I want to go into journalism or just write a book or something." She grinned. "If he got more famous, I could write a biography of my brother. It's not like I don't know about him." She was at least partially joking. Since she was fairly certain Jonathan would never agree to her writing about him. But it was an interesting idea. "A musician, huh?," she then asked as she heard what Lima wanted to do. "What do you play?"
A half-smile appeared on her face as she was then asked what year she was in. She thought that had already been figured out, but maybe not. "I'm a sixth year," she then added. "So I have another whole year in here, before I guess I need to worry about what I want to do."

Lima nodded and said, "he was my dueling instructor since me and my boyfriend broke up last Term, and I still have no idea why he let or anything." She sighed. She couldn't believe that he just left without telling her. Next time I see I might just hex him. Just for that. Then she listened thoughtfully. "Well, maybe you can do a bit of both, like you said. Write biographies about people. You can write one about me and my band in a few years." She winked to show that she was joking. Though she had to admit that that would be cool.
Then she counted off on her fingers: "I can play guitar, bass, drums, keyboard, saxophone, flute, clarinet, trumpet, harp, and trombone. And I'm self taught mostly." She shrugged. She knew music really well. "Aah, I was wondering if you were in Fifth or Sixth Year. Enjoy it while it lasts. Next Term you will go crazy from the workload." She was partially kidding, though there was truth to what she said too.

She was partially kidding, though there was truth to what she said too. Elizabeth simply nodded as Lima talked about Nicholai teaching her dueling because of a breakup with her boyfriend. Who she was fairly certain she knew, but wasn't about to enter into that awkward situation. "I don't exactly know why Nicholai left either," she said, feeling that this wouldn't lead to any questions. "I saw him in Diagon Alley before this term started, but we really didn't get to talk." Because of people attacking other people, and others watching with popcorn, and it had really been an interesting incident. But she grinned as Lima talked about the biography idea. "Sure, if you can find me then," she said, almost teasing. She knew Lima was joking, so she was going to go with it.
As she heard about what the Huffie could play, however, her eyes widened. "That's impressive. I mean, I can't play anything. Not musically." She could sing, sort of. And she played Quidditch. But musical instruments had never been something she had tried. But she laughed at the warning about seventh year. "I already went crazy last term because of the workload. That's why I kinda gave up being a prefect. At least get rid of one responsibility on my plate. But I think I can handle next term."

Mackenzie walked into the library and wandered over to the bookshelves, looking for something new to read. She saw a girl from Slytherin that had to be about her age scanning the same shelves as her. She figured she might as well try and make some more friends while she was here. "Hi, I'm Mackenzie. Seen anything that looks good?" She hoped the girl wouldn't be weirded out by her randomly going up to her.
