Alicia had woken up early that morning before half of her house. There was no reason as to why she did it, well except that she wanted to explore some more of the school. Over the past few days since she came here from NYC, she had met a few people that she could probably call friends. First there was Lucre the sly one from Slytherin and the other was a Finnish Countess by the name of Ruusu from Gryffindor.
Making her way to the library, the Ravenclaw finally felt more at home here than at any other school she had gone to in the past. It probably was a good thing that she got expelled from Salem, they were too strict anyway. She was dressed in a pair of blue jean hiphuggers, a blue and copper sweater, and white sneakers.
After picking out a book about the history of the wizarding world, the blond Yankee sat down in a large chair and started reading. She was glad that it was quiet that morning, otherwise she probably couldn't finally chill out and get used to the place. And hopefully make a friend from her own house.
The Spanish sun filtered through the stained windows of the hallway, its gilded rays contradicting the icy temperatures. Sky was nearly the only student roaming the halls that early morning as she made her way to the Firefox library; the Ravenclaw had only been at the school for a couple months and all ready she had visited the place countless times. She had finally signed up for the class that she had been dying to attend- Care of Magical creatures, and so needed to borrow the textbook from the library. Finally, after a last flight of stairs, she reached its large round doors. The vast room was nearly empty when she entered- save for a few students trying to squeeze some studying before class, or others who just needed some peace. Her footsteps reverberated throughout the silent room, she tried to step softer, hoping that she wasn't disturbing anyone.
Running her fingers through her short brown hair she studied the familiar room, lets see... Care of Magical creatures books would be.... Yes! There! She mused, heading towards the towering bookshelves in front of her. She began combing through the titles, oblivious to her surroundings. Must be around he- but before she could finish that thought she felt something hard ram into her side. "Oh crap!" she exclaimed, thinking that she had run into a lamp. Worse. It was another student. A blond- Ravenclaw- Sky racked her mind, trying to find her name hidden within jumbles of thoughts, but noting came up. "I'm so sorry- I was just looking for a book, and..." she muttered.

Nearby, Silvain jumped and looked up sharply as someone broke the quiet by shouting in surprise. He'd been busy looking up things for an upcoming Astronomy Class he needed to talk to the teacher about, and his notebook and a bunch of books were splayed out around him on the table.
Is this a common thing here, or something? he wondered, noting how he'd tripped over people before in the library.
He snorted suddenly, realizing they were Ravenclaws, and stood, making his way around the table and over to them.
"Hey, you're not hurt, are you?" he asked the girl who'd been hit. He looked up at the other one, smirking.
"We Ravenclaws are all the same, aren't we?" he asked quietly, minding that it was a library, even though he was pretty sure they were the only three in three in there so early. "It's good to know I'm not the only one tripping over people in search of my books." The little firstie grinned at the both of them.
*NOTE TO ALL: I'm leaving the site with this character, but look for a new, older Ravie to come in at the beginning of the school year next year who actually knows something about magic and can participate in the main plots without the need for the teachers who aren't here. Thanks. ((AND YES, I AM REALLY A GIRL IRL!!!)) *Shock of shocks*

"No worries, are you ok?" Alicia smiled as she held her hand out to the girl. "Stuff happens," she shrugged as she heard another voice. This time a male. "Yeah I guess so," she laughed. Notcing that he too was a Ravenclaw like herself and the other girl, she couldn't help but nod at the fact of tripping over for a book. "I'm Alicia by the way," she smiled brightly in introduction to the fellow eagles.
Looking back into the girl she ran into she grinned happily. "So did you find your book?" she asked jokingly.
Sky jumped when she heard a voice beside her. It was just another Ravenclaw- a very young one at that. She gave him a sheepish grin and simply replied "yeah..."
"I'm Sky..." she began, voicing to both Alicia and the first year. "Nice to meet you both. Er, I'm relativity new here and so I don't know too many people." She smiled at Alicia's question, "well, I think that it should be right behind your head there." The Ravenclaw didn't want to just squeeze behind her peer to retrieve the abnormally thick care of Magical Creatures book. "I just signed up for the class."

Silvain looked at the book Sky was mentioning, or what he figured it was. There were several different ones, but they were all on the same subject.
Silvain made a face. "Care of Magical Creatures...Good luck with that one, Sky," he said. "I had to drop outta that one because there was no way I could care for some weird water horse thing on my own. My name's Silvain, by the way," he said, looking back at Sky. "It's cool that there's a lotta Ravenclaws all over the place, you'll meet a lot more, I'm sure. Just come to the Common Room sometime, there's usually someone hanging out there. Or the library. Heh, we tend to congregate here, I think," he said, grinning.

Reaching behind her, Alicia retrieved the book in question and held it out to Sky. "Good luck with that class," she grinned as she looked up at the ceiling. "And there is no worries Sky, I'm a bit new myself," she laughed as she turned to listen to Silvain. "Well the library is a good place to meet people," Alica shrugged casually.
"So what kind of things do you fine people enjoy doing?" the blond asked her fellow eagles. These two are sure interesting so far she smiled to herself as she waited for one of them to begin first.

"Reading," Silvain replied with a grin. "Being in the library. Nerdy Ravenclaw things...You?"

"Thanks" muttered Sky with a nod, taking the book from Alicia's hand. It was a rather thick, green book with a gilded title and a weak spine. "Well, I took the class at my old school, and I have to say, I rather enjoyed it. Animals always seem easier to be around than humans." She said, looking at Silvain.
The young witch turned to Alicia as she spoke, letting out a slight laugh at Silvain's reply. "Hmm... Well lately I've been exploring the castle, and the grounds. Reading a lot... Being anti-social." Her lips curled into a soft smile, "and what about you miss Alicia?" She asked, slightly cocking her head to the side. Through the massive windows Sky could see the sun getting higher in the morning sky, as more students began to filter into the library.

Silvain debated asking more about Sky's animal preference, but decided against it, figuring that for one, they didn't need two topics going at once, and two, it might just lead to him revealing that either A) he'd killed every pet his parents had ever bought him, or B) they killed most of the animals they bought or owned since they used the for testing purposes.
Hm. I could probably start a flowchart with reasons like that, he thought to himself, smiling faintly as he looked up at the girls.

Smiling brightly, Alica pondered on the question. "Well I often find myself doing pranks," she grinned. Yes she was almost the polar opposite of what a Ravenclaw should be. She was a slacker, a prankster, and she really wasn't one for reading educational things. "And writing and drawing my own comic books," she added shortly after. "So yeah, I'm not exactally the best Eagle," she shrugged.
Looking toward Silvain, she smiled brightly. "So what about you?" she asked curiously.
