Visiting the Library
Jakob had been wandering the ground floor of Hogwarts for about half an hour when he finally stumbled upon his destination: The Library. He walked in and was amazed at all that he saw. Rows and rows of shelves of books of all sizes. He started walking through the library, looking for something to read. Jakob stopped near a large gate that blocked off a small section of the library. A sign in front of it read 'RESTRICTED.'
I'd better not go in there Jakob thought. He turned around swiftly and headed away from the gate at a fast pace, hoping nobody would see him and assume he was trying to get through. He kept meandering around the vast library until he came to a shelf full of fantasy books.
Quite ironic, Jakob thought to himself. There are probably Muggle-borns in this school that thought all of this was just a fantasy. He picked a book from the shelf. It was pretty big and was about eight-hundred pages long. He carried the large book over to a table and sat it down with a loud thump. He looked around, making sure nobody was disturbed by the sound. Once he was satisfied that nobody had been bothered, he sat down, opened the book, and began to read.

Visiting the Library
Cassie Jiang loves the library! She nearly comes here everyday. There are few lessons today, so she is here for some rest. She wanders around the shelves for a good book to read. This time, she don't want any more academics, perhaps there are some nice books of stories to read.
She want the ones with large colourful pictures perhaps, so maybe she can do some drawing as well. She walks past one shelf and another, finding no appropriate books to read.
Just then, she sees a boy, reading a huge, thick book. She can see that it contains many pictures and perhaps it's the kind she wants. Maybe he can tell her the location.
She walks towards the desk. She can see more clearly that the book is a fantasy--she want to read fantasies indeed. 'Excuse me,' she says quietly, hoping not to disturb the boy. 'Can you please tell me where you find the book? Umm.. like which shelf did you get it from? I want to read one of those.'
She stands quietly as she examines the boy. He has red hair and blue eyes. Handsome indeed, he looks smart, but she needs more interaction with him to know. Right now, all she wants is a good book to read.

Jakob stood up once the girl had finished talking. He gave her a quick once-over. She was about the same height as him, with blonde hair and blue eyes. Her skin was a rather pale white. Her hair, in some places, he noticed, was dyed a very pale shade of blue. She was very pretty. He stood there for a moment, looking at her. "Uh, hi!" he said, as soon as he had snapped out of his trance. "Yeah, I can show you where that is." Probably not actually. He thought. This place was a maze, and he'd be surprised if he'd even be able to find the exit at the end of the day. Finding out exactly where he found this book might take a bit. He'd do his best and try to look and act like he was confident and knew what he was doing and where he was going.
"So, what brings you to the library? Are you going to study, or did you just come to look for something to read?" Jakob asked, stalling. "Personally, I came here myself because I'm tired of reading through all of my textbooks. I mean, sure, they're interesting, but I can only read about the goblin rebellion of 1612 so many times, y'know?"

Cassie looks at the boy. He seems friendly and kind, helpful as well. He is talking quickly, sort of like how Cassie sometimes acts. 'Thank you. I am just coming to read something. I love the library, I always come here for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes I am here to read a book for my homework, sometimes, I just come to do my homework here. Sometimes I just have some random reading and sometimes I come to meet some friends. After all, people who come here loves study-- I like those people. What about you?'
Cassie stands up, waiting for the boy to point her the direction or lead her to the shelf. She glances around the library. It's so big, it's just like a maze. Actually, Cassie doubts if the boy actually knows the direction. After all, she forgets where she borrows a book as well, to be honest, who will remember where he or she lends a book?
Anyway, she wants to do some more chatting with him. 'Do you like history of magic? I mean, you seem to mention the things taught in it. Personally, I think History of Magic is boring, not fun at all. But I do have a good grade in it. I had an ambition to have all Os for every single homework. What about you?'

Jakob stood up as the girl continued talking. When she stopped, he began to answer her question. "Yeah, I like the library a lot. It's nice, quiet, and peaceful. As you said, an amazing place to come and study and do homework. As any library should be." Jakob scoped out his surroundings, turning a full, slow three-sixty, looking for the shelf he had picked this book up from. It wasn't that far from where he had decided to sit down. At least... He didn't remember it being that far. "No, I agree with you. History of Magic is incredibly boring. I don't see how people manage to stay awake in that class." He listened to her as she spoke of her ambition of getting all O's on every homework assignment. "Wow, that's very ambitious of you. I could never do something like that. I'd be happy if I could pass all of them with A's. Heck, I'd be happy as long as I didn't get a T." Jakob smiled. " Anyway, this book. I'm pretty sure I found it over there. Or maybe over there?" He pointed in two directions towards two different spots that were on entirely different sides of the library. " Or maybe over there?" He crossed his arms in an X, pointing towards the ceiling. He smiled again. "Just kidding. Seriously, though, I think I remember where I got it from. Follow me."

Hearing that Jakob's comments on her goal as ambitious, Cassie chuckles. 'Yep, you might be right. No one actually achieved this goal before, did they? I do feel I might be in Slytherin before. The sorting hat also wanted to put me in Slytherin. It's me myself who asked to change to Ravenclaw. This goal is a bit amitious, wasn't it? But as we live in this world, we do need some dreams and amitions, true? I solved a riddle when entering the common room about this, once, it inspired me a lot.'
As the boy points different directions and even on the ceiling, Cassie laughs. 'Today isn't April Fools Day, right? Alright, I will follow you to find the book. Perhaps can try to climb the walls and walk to the ceiling, but Mr. Saez might grab me off.' Humour, is something Cassie really likes, and she hopes she can use it well.
'True, no one likes History of Magic. It's boring, and you have to memorize millions of things. It's quite a painful experience. It doesn't require logic, as well, one can't use logic to solve the problems. I don't like it at all. I am just hoping classes can get over soon.'
