Ehsilat(Ehsi) sat in the far left corner of the library. She was fully immersed in a book. Ehsi always loved reading. She likes the idea of creating and exploring a new world. She didn't really understand why some people,like her brother for example, didn't like reading. It can take you to so many different places you've never been before. You can make your imagination run free, let your creativity flow. Just now she was taken to Ireland, where a young dragon trainer is on a journey to become the ultimate dragon master.
Ehsi had just finished the book, to her it was filled to the brim with adventures and friendship. She had gotten up from off the chair and went to find another book from the shelves. Ehsi scanned the rows upon rows of books, sorted neatly in alphabetical order.
She continued to search until she finally found another book that interested her. 'The Tales of Beedle the Bard'
She's read this book before, her mother owned a copy. Though she had already read it. Ehsi was perfectly fine with rereading a book from her time at home. She grabbed the book at went back to where she was once seated, in the far left corner of the library.
Ehsi began reading the book and had reached quite far with it, when suddenly someone came up to her.

Speech: #DAA520Soon to meet @Ehsilat WilstIt had been yet another long day for Viva. She sighed as she slouched into the library, feeling tired and worn from the seemingly never ending classes and piles of homework. Even though she was very tired, and wanted nothing more then to go take a nap before supper, she knew she should at least get a start on the homework she had been assigned that day. The blue-eyed girl looked around, her lack of motivation apparant as she slowly walked over to an open table and plopped her book bag down beside a chair.
"Ugh," she grumbled, leaning forward and resting her head on the rim of the table. "Why do I always have so much work?" Sighing yet again, Viva lifted her head from the table and looked around, trying to stall a little longer. The library was pretty quiet, as usual. Some students were sitting around, working or reading. Viva could hear the soft sound of pages turning. If she could just give herself an excuse not to work on her homework... the brunette suddenly noticed another girl who looked about her age sitting in the back corner of the library. Hmm, she thought. This could be the distraction I need. Plus, it would be nice to make a new friend.
She slowly began to make her way towards the girl, trying to figure out what to say. She gave up thinking and decided to just go for it. "Hullo," she said softly, trying to be quiet so the librarian didn't get upset at her. "My name's Genevieve Delacourt, but most people call me Viva. What's your name?" Viva smiled in an attempt to be friendly. She might have been tired and worn out, but that didn't mean she was going to be rude. "And what are you reading?" Pointing to the book in the girl's hands, Viva tried to keep her voice down.

Reyna was bored. And when she was bored, she went to the library. Reyna had been to the library many times. Last year especially when she had a routine to come to the library every Saturday evening with her friends.
This year, Reyna had realized she was less social for some reason putting all her effort into studying and broomracing. Maybe it was her previous life holding her back or something but Reyna felt a bit shy. Maybe in the library she could meet someone new. Make a new friend or two?
But the real reason she was here was to look for a book. A new one. Friends and socializing could be a part of it as well. She scanned the library looking for a book to read. Instead she found a girl hovering over another person reading. They looked to be talking.
Maybe this was my opportunity. A new book to read, and some friends or two. I walked up to them. Smiling at the two girls, I said, “Hi, you two! I’m Reyna Evergreen, second year Hufflepuff. What are your guys’ names?”
I recognized one of them as a hufflepuff from the common room. They both must have been from another year, the year below as I didn’t recognize them.
“What are you reading?” I asked to the other girl not from Hufflepuff.

@Reyna Evergreen@ Genevieve Delacourt
Ehsi was a feeling a bit annoyed as she had to stop her reading but at the same time gave the person standing over her her full attention.The girl standing over Ehsi introduced herself as Genevieve Delacourt, she was a Hufflepuff. The first thing Ehsi noticed about the girl was her eyes.They were the colour of sapphires and looked as though someone had taken the clearest bluest oceans and placed them into her eyes. Genevieve had dark hair that cascaded down her shoulder blades and flawlessly clear skin. Genevieve looked about the same year as her.She wondered why the girl picked her to talk to out of everyone else in the library. Just as the thought passed, another person came up to the two girls. She introduced herself as Reyna Evergreen, she was also in Hufflepuff, just as Genevieve was. She had brown hair and beautiful brown eyes, it looks a bit more hazel if Ehsi was being honest. This girl looked a tad bit older,but she was still very pretty.
Ehsi suddenly remembered to introduce herself, "My name is Ehsilat Wilst, I'm a first year Slytherin. Pleased to meet you both" as annoyed as Ehsi was about the book, she was genuinely pleased to be making two new friends, considering the fact she had such little of them right now.

Elizabeth stepped into the library, looking for Quidditch Through The Ages for no other reason except that she was curious about the sport.
Ever since she had heard about it, she had wanted to learn about the positions and how it was played so she had planned a trip to the library. Carefully searching through the shelves, careful to not knock any of the books down.
After a few minutes of looking, she moved into the next aisle where a few people were talking. Almost immediately, she found it, "Yes! Here it is!" She said and carefully took it from the shelf. As she walked down the aisle so as to sit at a table, she saw that two of them were in her year and the other one looked like she was a second-year.
Biting her lip so as to not interrupt the conversation, she moved slowly past, trying not to attract their attention. It looked like none of them were from her house, Ravenclaw, but what did it matter? They were just talking (and Elizabeth was saddened because she didn't have any Wizard friends) and she had no business interrupting them. After moving past them safely, she sat down at the table to read.
