Library

[AMEN SISTAH!!]


Clyde grinned and put his quill down, releasing her hand from the shake. "Exactly 1.4 inches above the required. Procrastination paid off for once!"

It seemed Wallace didn't have much to say.

Robin looked up at him amazed. "Wow, that's really weird... Boys are so weird!"

"And so are girls!" Clyde siad with a little wink.

"We're not weird, we're normal! We don't depend on procrastination."

"...Not all guys do! So I'm not weird, I'm unique!"

Robin blushed. She hoped she didn't insult him! Might as well just agree with. "Yes, I suppose so. I'm not that unique.. In fact, I'm quite boring. Back in elementary school, though, I had many friends. Like, tons of them. Ever since I came here, I haven't made many friends. I mean, there's this really pretty girl in my house, but we hardly talked. Same with my sister, though."

"I'm unique!" Wallace piped. "Probably more unique than Claude here."

"Really?" Robin turned to Wallace. "Wow, you guys are really lucky! How do you think you're unique?"

"Well... uhm... I can procrastinate and still be in Raven Claw?" Clyde said with doubt.

As a certain Angel Astor had chosen not to attend the M.R.D.S. meeting that day, where else would he be but the library? It was only natural. He slid his previous novel into its place on the fiction shelf, and, after evening out the varying depths of each volume in the row, he moved on to begin considering whether he should continue with Lewis' oeuvre or, perhaps, try something completely new... not that there was much he hadn't tried. Fantasy, science-fiction, western, mystery, romance... even from the nonfiction. Astor had read compendiums of muggle botany, biology of nearly all eight kingdoms, various philosophies (Many of which he found himself unable to comprehend; this phenomenon was easily explained by his still-developing mind), muggle chemistry, countless others. Astor had taken peeks into future textbooks, skimmed all sorts of pamphlets.

After all, Astor chose the slim, deep green hardcover of The Magician's Nephew from the shelf, checked out, and headed off to the common room to knock a few chapters out of the way before supper.

"Oh," Robin said nodding slowly.
