What was with this girl and staying up so late at night? And then sleeping in during the daytime as soon as the sun rises? Maybe Selena was just plain nocturnal.
Anyways, she had her infamous sketchbook and her habits of catching fellow witches and wizards off guard just by simply asking them to stay still while taking a sketch of them with either her Twistable(From the Crayola Company of course.) muggle crayons (Those are fun.) or her colored pencils. The little Ravenclaw wasn't drawing anyone at the moment, she was drawing the night sky with the crayons.
Her own silver eyes reflected whatever light they could catch which included the light from the moon and stars up above her. But so did her trademark crescent-shaped moonstone pendent on the black ribbon that was wrapped tight around her pale neck. At least those thing balance out all the black Selena was wearing from the jeans to the leather jacket. At least she wasn't wearing the uniform skirt that the students are 'supposed' to wear. Those thing are really cold in the winter! What was the Headmaster thinking when he wrote the rules for the school uniforms?!
Creak
Startled, Selly looked up from her sketchbook immediately. Who else would be up this late besides a professor?

It had been a long restless 2 or 3 hours since everyone else in his common room had fallen asleep. He just didn't seem able to nod off. He had been unable to get something off his mind. He had lost the girl he loved, Countess Russu, to a Prince.it was a complicated matter, and your stereotypical story where a person of lower class loves, and is loved by someone that is royalty. The two are divided from what they want do to the laws of the land. Malachy was on the loosing end and he hadn't been getting any sleep anyway.
So dressing in a simple black T-shirt, black jeans and some slippers, he sneaked his way around the school and made his way up to the Astronomy tower. A place that He and Ruusu had hung out not to many nights ago. But when he enter he noticed that the room was already occupied. The other occupant was a younger girl, much younger than him, with black hair, black clothes and moonstone jewelry. Then he noticed, that she was drawing or writing on something. Still he wouldn't stay hidden for long so he decided to walk forward and look out the window But as he moved a floor board creaked.
She looked up, "Oh, hey, don't mind me. Just an insomniac with nothing better to do." He said in a hushed voice. She wasn't that bad looking he noticed. In fact, had he not already felt half way committed, and she was a bit older. He may had tried his luck. He walked up to one of the windows and looked up at the night sky.

"Oh, hey, don't mind me. Just an insomniac with nothing better to do."
"...."
Selena didn't say anything at first as she was thinking through for an answer and decided not to say anything. One, the loner wasn't sure if she distrust Slytherins completely because of the Rebellion and what had happened at the Greenhouse. And two, she didn't think it was polite to draw Malachy since she didn't know him too well. ((OOC: Lost my muse...)
Malachy was on the opposites side of the rebellion than most would expect a Slytherin. His Great-Grandfather Father had given his life in an attempt to expose the Dark Lord's weakness. Malachy loathed the dark mark, and wouldn't dare disrespect that act. But just because Malachy loathed the heir of Slytherin and Mark Didn't mean that he didn't belong in the snake house.
He was use to the distrust and dirty looks that his house got, and the awkward tension in the tower wasn't unfamiliar. Malachy's senses where still heightened from potion he had take a few days ago. he would have thought it would have worn off by now but it seems the effects where more permanent that he had first expected. He heard the howl of wild wolves in the night. He grinned, Ruusu had loved those animals. "So, what's yourname, and what's your excuse for being up here so late?" He asked curiously. "You seem to be a nice artist, and the grounds are picture perfect at the moment. Maybe that's why?" He said half curious, and looking at the pencils and the writing pad.
"So, what's your name, and what's your excuse for being up here so late?"[/i]
"Selena. And i'm pretty much nocturnal."
The first year didn't give out her last name because of the irony that the wolves were howling their songs at the moment. But she wasn't scared of them. The loner had no reason to be afraid of them.
"You seem to be a nice artist, and the grounds are picture perfect at the moment. Maybe that's why?"[/i]
Malachy looked back out the window. "So, Do you draw anthing other than landscape? He asked curiously. He turned and sat in the wide window sill with on leg on the ground the other propped with the rest of him on the sill. "Oh, my name's Malachy by the way." he added, now realizing he hadn't introduced himself.
"So, Do you draw anthing other than landscape?"[/i]
"I draw people who are caught off guard."
Now THAT was true. Let's see who Selena got on her list...Teagan and Silvain. Now she will have to catch Shadow and his messy hair of doom sometime. Maybe even TJ when he feels better. The Ravenclaw knew that he wouldn't believe her but it's the truth.
"Oh, my name's Malachy by the way." [/i]
"Nice to meet you, Malachy."[/color]

Malachy thought for a moment. "How many Slytherins have you sketched? I'm guessing not many you seem pretty young, and the younger they are the more sheltered within the houses students seem to be." He said. He wondered if he should let her sketch a picture of him.

"None..."
Selena hadn't gotten a chance to sketch the Slytherins. They would have probably jinxed her with some sorta...jinx or charmy m'jig if she had gotten caught. And thus her mysterious power to pop up out of nowhere. Very useful when late to class.

Malachy nodded. "Well you have your chance to now. I have nothing against it." He told her with a slight smile. "Not sure if you'll get another, and it'll kill some time." Maybe he would introducer to the other being he had brought with him. He looked to his side out the window starring absently. The light of the moon and stars Made his pale skin almost glow, and it gave him a serene and eerily natural he didn't look posed or anything, it would actually make a good picture.
"Well you have your chance to now. I have nothing against it."
Did he just give me permission to draw him?
Selena looked up with a slightly surprised look in the silver eyes that also happened to reflect whatever lighting was there. It just happened to be the moonlight and starlight through the windows.
Crayons or pencils...Crayons or pencils...Eeny meenie miney mo!
Fwee. Crayons it is. Selena had taken out the black crayon and played with the different shades of the shadows in Malachy's hair and the background behind him. It might take her a while to draw this.

Malachy was patient he wasn't in much of a hurry, and he didn't mind being drawn in fact, depending on how good the drawing was, he might had a proposal for her, not the marital type. He had a questi0on for her and he waited about ten minutes letting her draw, before asking. "Have you drawn animals?" He asked curiously.
Selena had looked up as soon as her Crayola drawing was finished, while using mostly the black crayon, about five minutes after he asked the question. She had seen mostly wolves back at her frozen world. But now the Ravenclaw had seen a variety of animals here at Firefox...Maybe Selena thinks that she might see a real fire fox?

Malachy would have to pull a lot of string to give her the chance to draw the send think he'd mention later on. Art and propaganda went hand and hand, and the combination was a powerful weapon in politics. "That's cool. Your in Ravenclaw right, do you know Silvain?" He asked curiously. As random as these questions sounded they where all leading to a bigger topic.
"That's cool. Your in Ravenclaw right, do you know Silvain?"
"Silvain? Yes. Why?"
How did Malachy know Silvain? Sure, Silvy goes to the library a lot so maybe he met the Slytherin there? Oh well. He seems to be a nice guy...
"Don't worry i'm done with the drawing."
Selena held up the picture so Malachy could see through the delicate silk blanket that's the moonlight. Or maybe it would be easier for her to just give it to Malachy so he could have a look at it. Yeah. That's easier.
The little loner handed the sketchbook for him to see.
