Studying, yeah, studying [OPEN]

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

Tasha was sitting in the library, trying to do one of the assignments she got the previous day. Sighing every now and so, and nervously opening 10 books at a time, she left her head fall on one of them, only to get death threats from the schools librarian.
She closed all of them, and again fell asleep at the table. Or so she thought, for she wasn't really sleeping, just hallucinating from something someone put in her juice this morning.

[Harvey Branden]

Harvey loved the library. He loved the smell of leather. He loved the books. He loved the idea of learning. He loved the fact it had to be quiet. In fact there was pretty much nothing he did not love about the library. Except maybe the fact you had to chose a seat and potentially sit next to someone else. Seeing that it was quite busy and there was not many places to sit Harvey ended up flopping down into a seat beside a girl who seemed to be falling asleep. He smiled and shook his head with amusement, silence and the smell of leather - he could see why that was sleep inducing.

[Zander Blood]

"If you stare at a guy like that, he'll be sure to get ideas." Zander said, waving a hand over the girl's face after a few minutes of noticing she was staring off at nothing. He was leaning over her from the other side of the metal table and he had his chin propped over his hand and he had a careless smirk on.

"She's out of it." He said to the guy opposite him who was in his group.

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

She opened her eyes and saw a boy looking at her like he was amused. "Hey, don't look at me like that", she smiled, trying to get up a little. "I think someone spiked my juice with one of those Weasley sleeping product thingies. Oh, how I miss those..."
For everyone, the Weasleys were a sour topic, for they were all dead by now, or on the run, no one could really know.

Trying to turn to the other boy, she just left out a sigh.

[Zander Blood]

"I'm already looking you like this so there's no need to tell me not to." Zander pulled himself back and he hoisted himself up so that he was sitting on the table which was against the rules. The librarian gave him a look and he gave her a smile back. She just shook her head and went back to her work before Zander turned around to face the girl again.

"Dangerous to spike a drink at these times."

[Harvey Branden]

"Kind of stupid to spike a drink at any time" Harvey replied with a shrug as he opened one of his books and began to skim to find the right page, only just paying attention to what the others were doing. Listening to the conversation while appearing to be more interested in his book than anything else. He was not going to get kicked out again, but a little conversation was healthy.

[Zander Blood]

"Right." Zander looked up at Harvey and he pulled one of the book from the center of the table and skimmed through the pages without looking at it. He frowned and threw the book back towards the shelves and it landed with a muted thud onto the shelf.

"Dark Arts. Perfect fit." He chuckles. "Score one for Zander."

[Harvey Branden]

"You know it is also not nice to throw the books. The books deserve to be treated with care. There whole aim in life is just to sit on a shelf waiting to make someone, somewhere happy" Harvey informed him with a slight frown as he glanced up "and for that selfless reason for existing they deserve a little respect!"

[Zander Blood]

"I don't think I hurt the book," Zander turned to Harvey fully for the first time and there was something in his tone of voice that showed he meant it. "If I wasn't sure I'd let it through I don't think I would've wasted materials without a reason." He let his eyes drop to the dull silver of the table and his green eyes reflected on the sheen.

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

She was looking at them and managed to sit straight. "I'm okay", she lied, but in the same time she did feel better. "Maybe it was just Elizabeth, my friend, I don't think anyone else knows me here. She has a twisted sense of humor."

[Zander Blood]

"Don't lie to a Blood." Zander turned to her smoothly, his eyes green against his tanned skin. "Especially not to me." He whispered and he seemed to look straight through her.

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

"Well, I have no enemys here, so I don't know how someone else could do that to me.", she told him calmly, saying the truth as his words hurted her. "Should I feel scared or impressed that you are a Blood? Well, I don't seem to feel anything at all about it."

[Zander Blood]

"No, actually I prefer you don't think about me being a Blood at all." Zander pushed himself off the table and he ran a his index through the cool ring in his pinky finger with a slight frown. He seemed to be thinking before his lips broke into a smile. "You're a Mukli, right?"

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

"Yes I am", she said, looking at him like she was disobeying him in some way. "Mukli, and proud of it."

[Zander Blood]

"Cute." Zander commented at the fire in her eyes and he smiled back in a way that showed he was interested in a way. He turned a chair over and sat on it in a way that he was facing the backrest and his hands were crossed over the top. "So, does the Mukli have a name?"

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

The girl frowned. Cute wasn't a word with what she liked to be described. "Bryan Rivera", she said, smiling in a weird way. "Actually Tasha Bryan Rivera, but Elizabeth calls me Bryan", she pointed out. "And does the young mr. Blood that I'm not going to think of as a Blood, have a name? I see you are wearing blue-ish so you have to be Nula, right?"

[Alexandria Blood]

Alexa was not particularly fond of any room that had loads of books in. She also did not like rooms with excessively high shelves. But as she planned to explore the entire of the castle, so she could say by the end of the year there was not one place she had not visited, she had found herself in the library. Doing a little spin to take in the whole room she then wondered forward to see if she could find anything to capture her interest before she left again. Books, books, books ... her brother. Her brother and a girl ... seemed the perfect opportunity to make her presence known, being nosy by nature. So flopping down in a seat beside a boy with blonde hair who was reading a book, she treated the table to her best smile and asked, assuming her presence was wanted because frankly why would it not be, "what are we talking about?"

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

"Oh, hello", Tasha said awkwardly, waving to the unknown girl in front of her. "I was just..."

[Alexandria Blood]

"So nothing of interest? That does not surprise me. My brother can be a very boring person when he wants to be" Alexa chatted away as she shot a winning smile at her brother before looking back at the girl "I know you, well your in my house, I am trying to learn everyone in my house. As well as visiting ever place in this castle before the end of the year. Do you like to explore? I find most people do ..." Here Alexa paused to take a breath.

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

"Woah, your brother?", she asked, turning to the boy and then facing the girl again. "I can see the resemblance now." Tasha was feeling better, her legs weren't as numb as before, and she was only slightly dizzy now. "I am? I never saw you before!", she exclaimed, smiling and adding. "That sounds awesome! I love to explore, but never get to do anything interesting."

[Zander Blood]

Zander glanced at his sister and then at Bryan before shooting her a small smile just before he pulls his sister towards him so that she shut up from the shock of being moved. He placed a hand over her mouth and leaned down to her ear. "Calm down, Alex." He was the only one who got away with calling her that and he pushed her to the side gently with a finger over his lips.

He turned to Bryan and laughed because she was obviously a little surprised by how his sister acted. "Zan..." And then something hit him on the head.

(Make something up XD)

[Alexandria Blood]

Lexie obligingly went quiet and mimed zipping her lips. But the quiet was broken when she noticed that Zander had got hit with a book. She could not help but burst into giggles. Covering her mouth to stifle the noise. It appeared the book that Zander had thrown earlier had thrown itself back. Lexie looked around to see who had thrown the book, while still laughing.

[Tasha Bryan Rivera]

She turned around to see who threw the book at Zan...? Zan what? She didn't know his full name, but that action brought a big smile on the girls face, as well as on the face of his sister.

[Zander Blood]

Zander looked down at the book on the floor and he gave the shelf an exasperated glare. "I forgot this thing has a temper." He muttered and he took the book up before placing it over the table. He looked between Alex and Bryan.

"Zander." He raised a brow at Alex when she started laughing.

"If you keep that up, you're going to be thrown out for sure." He knew that was a long shot with the way she played with adults using her charisma.

[Alexandria Blood]

"Aww don't get all grumpy just because the mean book hit you" Alexa replied mock pouting at him before smiling again and turning back to the girl in her house "my name is Alexandria, you can give me a nickname if you like, everyone does - we are going to be great friends I can tell." She then stood up and skipped over to the nearest shelf to get herself a book and returned with one with unicorns on the front "and then when we are great friends we can explore everywhere - and have awesome conversations about how amazing we are!"
