Caledon Roth The Leaky Cauldron | The Book Nook Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll ![](https://i.postimg.cc/Qt4SjMkX/ravenclaw-book-nook-banner2.jpg) Image credit: hermionesclone
Tucked away in a niche on the far wall of the common room is a nondescript bookcase. At first glance, it appears that all the books on the shelf are arranged in alphabetical order, but upon closer inspection, you’ll notice one book out of place. The book in question is a particularly battered black volume with faded lettering along the spine. Anyone who attempts to pick it up to see where it belongs will soon find it isn’t a book at all!
Touching the black book causes the bookshelf to magically pivot, revealing a secret book nook within. The back wall is lined with shelves full of books on a wide variety of subjects. While the selection isn’t as vast as the school library, it should be enough to tide over even the most voracious bookworm. Several wooden study tables and chairs sit in the middle of the room for those needing a quiet place to do homework. If you’d prefer reading for pleasure instead of academics, there’s a cozy corner of the room stocked with pillows and blankets just for you! So find your favorite read, pull up a pillow or a chair, and get comfy!

| for Ern astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Even with the learned empathy and attachment from her reflected persona, Mitsuki couldn't quite understand the attachment many of her fellow seventh years were exhibiting this term. Much of the discourse seemed to revolve around finality. Unless all her peers were omnipotent seers, there was no way that they could ascertain such a claim. It bothered her, irrationally so, and thus is was the salvation of the book nook she sought out and had sent a little origami crane to Mercer to ask him to join her. New companion hugged to her chest, the seventh year selected a few blankets and decided that, because she was here first, she would construct a fortress. He was always making them, after all.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "You've made a friend?" Mercer was always happy to drop whatever it was he was working on to answer Mitsuki's call, so he appeared shortly after her origami note arrived. He'd managed to unceremoniously destroy it just by trying to open it, but one of these days he'd figure out gentle unfolding. He dropped to crawl into the propped blanket fort and gave Mitsuki's stuffed friend a gentle pat. "Hi, friend. Are you keeping our girl safe and happy?"

| astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf A smile easily graced her features, more pronounced than in previous years, upon hearing Mercer's voice and lowered her wand which had been levitating books into position for a new book fortress. "It was a gift...or a reward depending on which perspective you prefer," she replied with a glance down at the neon green top of the stuffed creature and gave it a little hug - it was a surprisingly pleasant squishy sensation. "Gwendolyn is a fruit bat stuffed animal with the ambition to glow in the dark, not to keep me safe and happy." Mitsuki briefly turned her attention back to the books she had been stacking and began to levitate another into place. "I feel these things while in your presence."

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Did fruit bats have ambition? Let alone... stuffed ones? Mercer puzzled over that as he gently dropped even further down so he could bump his nose against Gwendolyn's stuffed little face. "A reward for what, though?"
Gwendolyn got a soft tap to the nose, as did Mitsuki. "Not sure it's safe to let anyone be responsible for your happiness. I mean, I'm glad it's me, because at least we know I'll try pretty hard to get it right, but you gotta give me some leeway for being an absolutely mess on occasion, ok?"

| astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf It would have tickled her to know that Mercer had the same thought regarding stuffed ambition as herself upon reading the label. "Attending Charms class, I presume," Mitsuki replied with a small. " shrug. "The professor permitted us to keep them after completing our practice of the Featherlight Charm."
Smiling a bit while he continued to dote on the stuffed fruit bat, she moved slightly to give him more space to accompany here in the still only somewhat constructed book castle. "Well..." she began, her eyes crossing as he tapped her nose and cheeks turning just the smallest hint of pink as well. There was an instinct to point out that she had not outright said that he was responsible for such a thing, but the more emotionally intune (or learning to be so) self cautioned against robbing him of the sentiment. "Of course," she nodded instead and tucked her legs neatly under herself. "It was not any sort of perfection that drew me to you."

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "Oh." Not that Mercer thought he was perfect by any means, but if it was meant to be a compliment, what he heard was sort of the opposite. Lack of perfection. Lack of symmetry of character that seemed to come naturally to most people. She liked him in spite of that, though. Wasn't that her point?
"You invited me here, right? Any particular reason?" Mercer tried to fit into the space that Mitsuki had created for him, but he was still mostly elbow and knees and he felt like he was crowding his smaller companion. She liked that? The... untidiness of it all?

| astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf It truly was a miraculous feat in how simultaneously intune and out of tune their energies were.
Tilting her head, as perplexed Mitsukis do, she attempted to study and understand why his features seemed to have sunk slightly. Or perhaps not so much sunk but dimmed, as though someone had drawn the drapes as the day approached twilight. She rather enjoyed that time of day but the same could not really be said for the disoriented glazed that swept across his gaze.
"I did," she confirmed with a nod as she quickly realized she had not made the perimeter of her book castle large enough. Which was why she stood just a bit, crouched rather, to give him access first since he was far lankier than herself and then sat down once again between his knees much like one would expect of a kneazle sitting before its wizard familiar. "I..." Though she could not quite figure out how best to word what she was feeling - not that she had ever been particularly gifted in conveying emotional sentiments to begin with. "...I think I am fragmented."
Possibly.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Mercer shifted naturally to make space for Mitsuki, an unusual feat for someone who normally couldn't put an elbow anywhere without making a total muddle of things. He wrapped an arm around her to secure her in the small space that was just Mitsuki-sized.
"Is fragmented like broken? You feel broken?" That concerned him, and Mercer tipped her face up to study her pointed little chin and melting dark eyes and the way her hair wisped across her forehead. "Not physically. What's fragmented, then?"

| astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf It was curiously nice... his arms around her. This was not a surprising result considering she had never experienced a negative response to his touch before but had it always felt this nice. For a glimmer of a moment she understood why it was that Yukie was such a physically affectionate individual (though the Ravenclaw still found the Hufflepuff's behavior excessive) and Mitsuki found herself relaxing against him almost immediately.
Processing this stimulated realization in combination with that which she had just shared with him was proving to be more complicated to understand than her studies on the metaphysics of magic - the homework of which she was unintentionally neglecting and had covered her parchment in doodles once again instead. Thoughts became even more lost in the warm haze brought about by his touch when his turned her head like that, Mercer seeming to have a Veritaserum touch to his fingers in this moment. "In...here," she responded softly as one hand reached up to point to her forehead with widened eyes. "...and...in here," she concluded while resting the other hand over the left side of her chest.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "In your sinus cavity and in your lung," Mercer agreed with her with all the mock solemnity in the world. He knew what she meant, but it was an awfully serious thing, to be told that someone felt broken in the places where Healing couldn't fix you. "I think we'll have to operate. Do you know any scalpel spells?"
Mercer released Mitsuki's chin and gave her a crooked smile. "Do you want to tell me about it, or do you want me to distract you?"

| astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Well, technically speaking, his analysis was not incorrect with the placement of her hands despite it being far from accurate with regards to her intention. Perhaps she ought to escort him to a couple Healers of Tomorrow meetings for his own benefit? Or, perhaps, he was simply providing an otherwise emotionally bleak situation with a Mercer-ism. Her evolved but
muddled instincts told her that it was the latter.
"I suppose Diffindo would be efficient enough," she replied with a tiny hint of a smile and a rather thick swallow as she held back reminding him that magical medicine and healing did not typically require such archaic methods that their Muggle counterparts were dependent upon. "I shall remove my robes at once to prevent tearing."
A bit of superfluous 'playing along' that would surely not serve as a distraction at all.
"I...do not know," Mitsuki admitted after a moment. "It is as though there are two Mitsukis occupying this vessel and each advocate for a different response, distraction or intimate discussion."
