Astraea walked alongside one of the bookshelves, her right arm was moving across the leather spine of most books as she walked, she wasn't really looking for a book. Astraea was not sure what made her come into the library but it was nice to be in a quiet environment compared to the loud corridors. She breathed in, it was almost as if she could smell what a book smelt like.

That was absurd though. with a soft smile, Astraea's eyes were drawn to one book in particular, most likely because it was half out. curiosity got the better of her, speeding up her walk a slight bit she pulled the book out and looked over it, it looked like someone's school book, to do with potions. not really caring about it she replaced the book and continued to wander past the books, wishing that she could talk to someone, as long as she was quiet though.

The library was a nice place, Astraea had to admit, but the quietness was putting her off slightly, as she was not one to enjoy the quiet for ages, she prefers to be around people rather than be locked up in a room, alone. Astraea smiled as she pulled out another book and looked at the cover, not really comprehending what was said on the cover before placing back on the shelf she found it on.

Veronica was sitting in a corner in the back of the library near the restricted section. She was trying her best to keep up with her studies that her mother Aunt taught her. A few years ago, she was being taught how to speak Arabic, but also how to read characters. She'd brought a few of her books with her, but was hoping that Hogwarts would have a few in their library. I wonder if they have a story on aleaqrab almalik, the Scorpion King. Deciding to take a look, Roni got up from her spot and began to work her way through the many shelves.

Turning the corner, she saw a young Gryffindor with brunette hair. Roni caught a glimpse of the book in the girl's hands, it was Aleaqrab Almalik, the book she was looking for. "Excuse me miss but are you going to read that book?" Roni approached the Gryffindor and pointed to the book she was about to put back. "If you'd like, I could teach you how to read it? It's in Arabic. The language itself is a bit tricky, but quite fun once understood." Roni loved to have the chance to teach something new, or even learn something new.
