The Library
With a deep breath, Celeste strode into the library. Ever since her arrival at Hogwarts, this was what she had been the most excited for. Books were her favorite thing in the world, and the mere idea of having so many books available to her, so many new worlds to discover and explore made her so happy she could float. She walked into the room, and what she saw overcame even her most vivid imaginative image of a library. It was... Majestic. She did not know where to go first and what books to look at. Celeste did not think it would be possible to read all of them even if you had devoted your whole life to only reading. She walked along the rows of bookshelves and turned into a random one which turned out to be a section about magical creatures. There were so. Many. Books. New and old, thick and thin, different sizes and colors. A bright green one caught her eye, and as she took at out of the shelf it was revealed to be a book about dragons. Fingers trembling, she opened her first ever Hogwarts library book. She sat down, and lost herself in the tales trapped within the book's yellowed pages. And Celeste read. And read. And read...

The Library
Rufus would wander into the library as he wanted to get some studying in before he started classes the next day. He would look around, seeing all the books within the bookcases. "Where do I start?" he would say as he would start to head to defence against the dark arts section. He would run his finger along the bindings of the books, and then he would freeze, seeing one about death eaters. "Maybe. This would help me understand... grandfathers choice" he would say under his breath as he would pull the book out, and then he would open it looking to the first page. "I take some time to read this" he would say as he would close it, and he would head over to the table, and he would see the girl sitting there reading a book. He would sit down quietly, not wanting to disturb her. He would set the book down onto the table, and he would open it to the first few pages. Rufus really wanted to understand his grandfathers choices, and it was always something what was in the back of his mind. "But. They kill people. So why grandfather why" he would say under his breath.
