Sometimes You Just Got To Read -Open-

[Illusion Avery Rayne]

Walking along the corridor, Illusion ran her hand along the wall, as she rounded the corner. Seeing the large doors of the Library, she carefully pushed one open. As she addmitted herself inside. Glancing around the large library, she found that it had several students reading, or studying. Going to the nearest of shelves she began to read the titles of the books. Shaking her head, as all these books didn't spark any interest, to her.

[gryphon]

Gryphon wasn't really one to be all that keen on books she was more of a creative person. Instead of reading books and letting them create images she was better off drawing her own. Some how that had always been more fun and interesting to her.

So in the Library it seemed very odd to be here. A place of reading >.>. Walking down a random ile she dully looked about herself. From the left to the right. It was all the same even if she wasn't paying much attention to the names of the books. The only thing that had started any interest was the word Newt which had been a last name.

-.-;

Seeing a girl looking just as interested as herself looking at the shelf Gryphon smiled amusedly.

"You look about as lively - interested as me." She said quietly with a smile; not wanting to raise her voice too loud for the Librarians were always shooshing everyone.

Illusion heard someone talking, was it possible someone had dared came to talk with her. Looking towards the sorce, she found a girl. Smiling she listened to what she had to say. Speaking up Illusion said. "Well you can't nessicarily blame me.. I mean really who in their right mind would read 'Numerology and Grammatica' she said pointing to the book her eyes had rested on, before the girl started to talk. Realizing that she never mentioned her name, which was one rude, and two Illusion always introduced herself, because it was impropper either way. "Hi, I'm Illusion Rayne Mihael Third Year."

[gryphon]

Gryphon looked at the book Numerology and Grammatica raising her eyeborws. My god, it sounded like a headache worse than if you hit the book on your head. It was a good thing that Gryphon had interrupted Illusion right... She could have said right back that she was interested and perhaps something rude. Luckly this wasn't the case and Gryphon now smiled at Illusion when she introduced herself.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Gryphon," she introduced herself back. "Second year Mihael."It was nice to know another Mihael, it was always hard for Gryphon to make friends little alone meet new people. And to meet some one in the same house was brilliant. "..I have to admit I'm not a great fan of books."

[Illusion Avery Rayne]

Illusion grinned. "I like to read, just not books like that..." she said. "Most of them are just novels, for fun, not because I have to." she admitted as well. "If I could, I'd much rather just take pictures." Illusion told Gryphon. "Has anyone told you before, that you have a very unique name.. I don't think I've met anyone with that name before." she explained as she added. "it's nice to meet you."

[gryphon]

"I wish my attention span let me read more often. I like novels on the occasion. Though I think I'm better off drawing...Maybe some day I'll become a bookworm. That would be nice." Gryphon's smile widened, "Take pictures? like as in photography?" She asked curiously then answering Illusion's comment on her name. "Thank you. Yeh, they regularly bag me out for it actually. Heh, I just got stuck with weird naming parents, kay maybe just weird parents. Your names pretty unique- I mean I've definitely never met some one with your name before." Gryphon said thoughtfully. "It's really pretty, did your parents have reason for naming you Illusion?"

[Illusion Avery Rayne]

Illusion looked at Gryphon. "Naw, my birth-parents had a weird scence of humor. My eldest sister's name is Phoenix... So I suppose they just liked to name their Daughters weird things. My brothers got lucky, they both got generic names, Adam and Matt." said Illusion. As she nodded her head in reply to the Photography question. "yes I'm a photographer. Very, very new photographer, I have my own dark room, set up under-neath my bed in the Dorm.." she stated. "I don't read as much as I should, or would hope so. Only because I'm always stuck, reading books for school. And when I'm finished with that, I don't want to pick up another book, for a very long time. What about you? What brought you to the library?" asked Illusion.

[gryphon]

Gryphon listened silently, briefly thinking about how her own brother and sister had 'winged' animal names as well. She was completely intrigued about Illusion having the darkroom under her bed in the dorm. It would be tricky, and fun, but tricky. “When did you start the darkroom under your bed? Have you printed many photos up yet?” The idea was brilliant, but Gryphon didn’t have the right equipment to do such things, little alone the education.

"Yeh I know the feeling, reading books for school is always a bummer afterwards because then there’s very little temptation to get into another book." Gryphon smiled then answering about why she had come to the library. Of all places >.>;. "Curiosity I suppose. I didn't get to have a better look around here last term. So here I am now," she glanced briefly at the closer shelf she was starting to lightly lean on, then back.Gryphon shrugged a bit. "Thought I might meet some new people here as well. It's kinda hard meeting new people surprisingly and I hate being stuck with just me." she smiled a bit, man she was a sillyhead. But it was true, even if she did expect people to be doing work here in the library at least it was beter than sitting in some random place outside and never being known.

[Illusion Avery Rayne]

Smiling she answered. "I started the Dark Room my first year. As for the photo's I try, I don't develop them alot of times untill I get home. But if I do have a good enough one, I will develop it, in my makeshift dark room." she told Gryphon. Thinking of the long black sheets that rested on her bed, and how she would lay beneath it, placing her photo's in the developing solution. Smiling at the thought she listened to how Gryphon was curious about the Library mostly because she never had the chance in her first year. "Yeah, I admit I didn't spent to much time in the Library, most of my time was spent outside, getting to know the lake and all those other magnificent areas. I still don't come here all that often." she stated as she realized that in her second year, she didn't come to the library at all, this was the only real time she came to the Library.

[gryphon]

She had nodded smile still set in place. "heh, funny that cause I've been hanging out in the more 'outside' areas too. Though I am yet to go to the Quidditch Pitch." Gryphon said thoughtfully. "Hogwarts is pretty damn big though... not to mention this library." She more uttered the last of her sentence blue eyes wandering around the room's high set ceiling and back again. She couldn't help it the girl constantly curious, she was a Mihael after all.

"What's your favourite place in the castle?" Gryphon asked randomly not sure herself which area she liked most. Not that she had been absolutely everywhere yet.

[Illusion Avery Rayne]

"Inside the castle it would have to be the Great Hall, because I get to talk with my freinds. Outside the castle it would have to be the Maze, but that's only because it holds personal sentimental reasons." she told her as she looked around the Libaray. "Yes it is quite big, even in my own house I have never seen so many books, the only place that would come close would being this size would be Flourish and Blotts, maybe not even them."

Rath stood at the end of the H-HA section and leaned on the shelf and read a copy of Hamlet, mouthing the words, "Alas poor Yorick..." He imangined a man holding a skull, the cliche scene one would think of when reading the book. He laughed to himself and a librarian shooshed him. The Slytherin frowned and made a face at her when she turned away to fuss at more students. He went back to reading.
