Balancing quill, parchment and textbooks precariously in one arm, Blake scurried to one of the many oak tables scattered throughout the ancient Library. The room demanded absolute silence and Blake held his breath as he dumped the contents of his arm onto a sturdy oak table.
Parchment rolls bouncing off the edge of the table and onto the floor with a gentle whoosh, being sent into flight by the soft thuds of his text books.
"Atleast yer inkpot is still upright,"he sighed to himself, the thought the only comforting one coming to mind. He was supposed to be meeting with another student, a Slytherin name Adohiro , to write out a small report for a class they shared and had agreed to do it together. Blake had seized the opportunity to leave his common room and was eager to get out and venture around the school. Now, standing alone in the dim light of the library, Blake found himself missing the plush velvet armchairs and warm fire of the RavenClaw common room.
"Atleast in yer common room ya don't have ta carry all yer supplies all the way here,"His thought piped up again as he recalled the walk down from the West Tower. It hadn't been unpleasant, wandering down the corridors had excited him though he wished he hadn't been bogged down with his supplies and the responsibility he had to reach the library by a certain time. He had wanted to take his time and enjoy the feeling of relative freedom.
Pulling back a seat, he settled into the firm-backed chair and began flipping through his textbook for the chapter they had covered when a set of textbooks, rolls of parchment, quill and inkpot joined his on the table, covering the surface in the supplies necessary for the task at hand.
Sorry it took me so long to get around to getting this started but my replies will be far faster

dohiro's first week of Hogwarts was sure eventful, it was a bit crazy and of course, there were those annoying pesky immature first years along with some older students. It seemed like complete chaos for him, he actually sort of missed the old public academy in South Korea he attended before going here. He wasn't too happy about this school, he barely knew anything in this world, he was a pure blood, but he mostly focused on muggle academic classes since he attended a public muggle school. He wondered if it was done to humble himself so he wouldn't look down on the strange muggles. He would head to the library to properly study, it was chaotic for sure!
He would sit in the desks and he'd get his books out. He then began to slowly study ahead. He needed to be the top of his class to prove his older brother that he could lead. The baby-faced boy would work on his assignment quietly. He certainly wasn't happy about getting a ton of As and not even a single E. All of his training for English and for magic sure seemed like it was for nothing. He 'd sit and start to write his homework out in a neat and readable handwriting. He certainly wasn't the smartest, but he was a hard-working student. That was where he shone, his hard work got him good grades. Letting out a small sigh he would continue his work without complaint. He wondered if anyone else was having trouble in these classes. He certainly was. It seemed the teachers were much more strict. He would continue to work slowly and didn't know if there was anyone near him.
