| | |  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.  | |

"He's...missing?" Her voice was low so that only he could hear. "And you are being a smart aleck. Meanie." She began to grin widely as that was one of the many reasons she loved being around him. Her fingers began picking at his sides in a playful way. Miles looked at Fia as she yelled his name and began pushing him away from the table. Grabbing his things he bowed toward the other two Huffies, "And that's my cue. I bid you adieu." Grinning he let Fia push him away and turned to look at her.
"So what? Maybe he got fed up with the strange guy and wandered off." Well it was possible he was kinda weird. Seeing her smile he pulled her into a hug, "Might have been mean...but I was right and you know it."

Seeing her smile he pulled her into a hug, "Might have been mean...but I was right and you know it." He was so adorable sometimes and this was one of those moments, but Fia was not going to tell him that. "Whatever," she rolled her eyes with a smirk as she wasn't going to tell him that he was right either. Nope! There was nothing he could do for her to admit that.
"So what? Well, I think it's time to be nosy again. Something is going on and I want to know." Yup. That meant she was going to come out of her hiding once again. Look out.

haha!
"So how are you doing?" He wondered if she had heard about his new girlfriend yet. "Apology excepted." Sylvia smiled and put her book back on the shelf. It was in the wrong section, but she really couldn't be bothered to look for the actual place. Too much effort. "I'm doing alright. But annoyed that I didn't make the Quidditch team." Sylvia thought that Quidditch was a great sport to take out your anger on other players. "What about you? You seem farily happy." | |

Not that he would ever voice that opinion as she would hit him. "I'm good. Stressed but good. Yeah, it's shame that you aren't on the Team. I might have had the chance to kick your butt on the pitch." He winked at her. |

How DARE he imply that he was better than she was! Sylvia put her hand o her hips and scoffed. "That's very unlikely. Quidditch is my anger management. You would loooooose." Sylvia sang the last word and giggled to herself. Though, not making the Quidditch team in the first place did show she wasn't great at it, she just liked hitting things.
"Why are you stressed? When I see you you're always laid back and relaxed." She smirked. | |

"Why are you stressed? When I see you you're always laid back and relaxed." She smirked. He smirked at her. Seemed that she was a bit touchy. But it was all good as he had been joking about that anyway. "Relax, Sylvia. You're lie Brody. I know that you would be a force to reckon with." He poked the annoyed girls nose. She was so cute at times.
"OWLs." Did he need to say more? He didn't really think so. | |

She scrunched it up as she was a a bit ticklish, and pretended to look angry. "I'm only kidding. But I would win." She smiled, as if she'd already won. "So, you not still talking to Brody? That is .. if I'm allowed to bring her up." She laughed.
"I see. Bummer. I have to do those next year." Sylvia sighed, threading her thumbs through her jeans' belt holders. | |

You just couldn't go anywhere without being accused of being nosy, or whatever. This was, like, the first time he'd ventured out of his hiding place in weeks except for class, and... grrrrr.
Hang on... wait...
Bontecou... there was something about Bontecou. Jake recalled that day he and Anna had turned up in the man's office without remembering going there... that day he blacked out in there and was missing something afterwards... the day he'd been talking to Kaz and Bontecou in the office and Anna had showed up. The fact that Jake KNEW the password.
Crap.
Saying nothing more, but with his eyes going wide, Jake immediately sprinted from where he stood. He needed to a). talk to LouAnn b). think and c). hide again.
And then he was gone. This was weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeird. Why was this man looking for the headmaster in the Library? And WHO WAS HE? It sort of made her proud that so many students had...surrounded the stranger. Who knew what or who he was and what he was here for. Yeah, their mothers and fathers didn't teach them to be careful for nothing!
Arching a brow, she watched Jake walk to stand besides her and, if she could, she'd cross her arms at the man. But then the stranger sort of ran off. Well... the teachers would take care of him. She turned to speak to Jake. "You know-" What the...?
Yeah, Jake was a snitch allright, the boy had dissapeared as fast as he had appeared. Humpfhing, Miranda held the book firmly in her hand and decided to go and check it out and leave the library.

He rolled his eyes at her playfully. He knew that she would be a fierce opponent in Quidditch, but he liked teasing her. And Brody.. maybe that wasn't such a bad topic to discuss anymore. "Me and her are friends now. We are trying to get along." He paused for a moment. "I have a new girlfriend." How she would react to this news he wasn't sure.
"Don't worry. I'm sure you will do well." Maybe not on Muggle Studies without more help from him. But she was a smart girl. | |

Nataly was searching through the long bookshelves in the healing section. She felt really strange that day, as if a big part of her was missing. It was much colder than usual for her, even if it was June, and she didn't get that euphoric feeling anymore.
She was scanning through the books, looking attentively at the books' titles. Suddenly, she saw a book about werewoolves. It took Nataly a few moments to realise she didn't feel that burning hatred for them any more. Actually, she felt a strong pang of guilt in her heart. What had she done?! The posters, destroyed gargoyle, and, of course stealing documents from Bontecou's office...
But why had she done it?! Why was she so eager to hurt the werewolves? Why did she make her best to kick Lupa and the Headmaster out of school? She remembered supporting the werewolves in the beginning of the year, until the first WOLF meeting.
The sudden realisation came to her almost immediately. "I was imperiused." she whispered in horror.
Nataly ran out of the library, knocking off one of the chairs. But she didn't even look back.
