| | Library Bookshelves A great number of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves fill the library, creating rows and aisles of books available for students to read and check out. When returning books to the higher shelves, just hold up the tome and the shelves will take care of the rest; there's a spell on the shelves which summons the returned book to the correct place. Of course, when retrieving a book, they don't 'know' what you're looking for, so those who aren't yet accomplished in the use of the Summoning Charm may use one of the sliding ladders that move around from bookcase to bookcase.
In front of each set of shelves is a small desk. Students can sit at these desks to complete homework or copy down notes and book references. Be aware that other students may need to access books above you… so mind your head.
You can find any book here that's appropriate for all school years, so browse to your heart's content. (ooc :: You are welcome to RP socializing here. This is a chat thread especially for fun RPing) |

Finally arriving in front of the library door, Gwen opened it, making it squeak. Hmm... I know this is the library- but isn't it a bit too quiet?, she asked herself, looking a bit puzzled. Meh, I don't have anything better to do, she told herself, determined to spend a while around. Then, the ravie walked slowly towards the bookshelves, while scanning the place. Um... there's actually no one here?! Yup, I'd better leave! Maybe I should stick around for a while... isn't the library the place where you should get ideas... and um... never mind, she told herself. The girl walked slowly, looking at the books on the shelves and trying to keep in mind the ones she considered interesting. I'll come back some other time, she thought while twirling a book in her hands. She then placed the book back on the shelve, and turned around quickly, willing to leave, when suddenly.... BUMP! Merlin! Not again!, Gwendolyn thought after having realized that there actually was someone in the library. Grrr... 'So I have to apologize for you standing in MY way?', she asked coldly, but then, she noticed the person she had bumped into was her Ravenclaw friend. 'Oh... Hi Luna', she said, trying to sound nice. 'Sorry... I didn't see you standing there', the girl started saying. Nice going, she 'congratulated' herself.

At least it was Gwen and not a seventh year but she was still sorry
She decided they might aswell have a conversation since they were both there ''So good summer?'' Lu asked sort of trying to change the subject

She decided they might aswell have a conversation since they were both there ''So good summer?'' Lu asked sort of trying to change the subject Still thinking if coming here was a good idea, Gwen listened to Luna talk. Oh, well... she didn't get upset... maybe I shouldn't be rude to her. At least not right now, she thought, trying to give the impression she was actually nice. Meh,I'll try, but I can't promise anything!, the young ravie told herself. Glimpsing at the door, Gwendolyn tried finding a good excuse in order to get out of there. I have to meet someone? I have to find my cat? I... I have to send an owl?, Gwen thought.
However, when Luna started asking the girl about her summer, Gwendolyn decided to just drop the idea of being rude to her. After all, she seems really nice... 'Oh, well... I spend quite much time with my parents and...', she started saying. No 'and', that's it... better not mention that I trained daily, trying to finally learn how to fly. Yeah, it wouldn't be so smart to mention what a total disaster I am at flying, playing Quidditch and whatsoever! 'Um... and I also met a few friends', she finished saying, remembering the time she spend with her bestie. That reminds me... I'll have to talk to Ari sometime today. 'How about you? Did anything interesting?', she finally asked, and then looked back at the books on the shelves close to her. Picking out one with a green cover, Gwendolyn started checking it out.

Nice plain summer!!! Luna nodded and smiled ''Me? Nothing really I stayed at Presley's! I went to the carnivelle met up with my friends nothing special,'' Luna replied as she watched Gwen looking at books ''Looking for anything in preticular?'' Ughhh the most stupid question ever just as asking her did she have a good summer!!!!
She popped another book in her bag she was tired of carrying which was odd

Hogwarts RPG Name: Eris Filia Ashwin First Year Ministry RPG Name:
Altair L. Dragomir | So it was fourth floor Eris thought walking into the library and glancing at the many bookshelves that crowded the space around her. Vast and filled with more books than she knew where to begin, the boy-girl of a witch went to the closer shelf she could find trying to find a basic healing spell book.
Among the dusty shelves, she coughed a bit into her elbow, blinking her blueish-grey eyes as they fell upon a book that filled exactly what she needed. Medicinal Magic and You, The Necessities.
Of course though, it happened to be on the top shelf that was way out of Eris' reach. None the less, Merlin be a muggle, she was going to get that book! Stretching her arms out as high as she could, craning her neck as if to help, and standing on the very tips of her toes; the eleven year old was still a good foot short from her goal.
Not that it would stop her, kids got determination.

Not that it would stop her, kids got determination. Sarah walked into the library. Ah... the library. Full of books. Sarah quite liked books. She glanced around, realizing that there probably weren't any books other than text books here. Grr. Well, she'd have to make the best of it.
As she gave the space a cursory glance, she noticed a girl she vaguely remembered from the Great Hall.
Sarah jogged up to the girl, who seemed to be having trouble reaching a book on high shelf. "Hey, Eris, right? You need some help with that?" Sarah smiled, hoping she didn't seem too arrogant about her height or anything.

She pointed to the tauntingly high book in question as though she was blaming it. Giving a toothy smile though, her spirits sprang back up like a yoyo, "Thank you though...Sarah....?" the small witch leaned her head a little to the side in question on the chance that she might have gotten it wrong.

Sarah smiled sheepishly, she sort of felt bad that she was doing this. Well, she was glad to be of help, but she got the feeling that she had wounded this girl's pride.
She reached up and grabbed the book with only a little difficulty. She handed the book to Eris and grinned, "Yeah, it's Sarah, and you're welcome."
She glanced at the book curiously, "Are you studying to be a... Healer, maybe?"

She glanced at the book curiously, "Are you studying to be a... Healer, maybe?" Eris gave a laugh, "Nah, I don't think I could study that much happily....". As appealing as it was to be a healer when just looking at the part that they help others and save lives, it sure does sound pretty nice; but not exciting. Or rather, not as exciting as she would have wanted life to be.
"Erm...well...someone tripped over my trunk...and long story short I didn't know how to fix them...so I'm a bit curious on the basics." Eris explained before giving a small chuckle. "You know, In case my luggage decides to attack someone else."
"What do you happen to be in here for?" the small witch asked as she took the book from Sarah and tucking it under her arm to check out later.

"Me? Not much," she replied, "I just wanted to see what sort of books they kept in a magical library. I've taken it upon myself to try to explore this castle. The library was one of my stops."

"Hmm, wanna go on an expedition with me then?" Eris asked with a childlike and mischievous air to her voice. She always wanted to have an exploring buddy since she entered the grand doors of the castle.

I mean, I suppose there are fairy tales in muggle libraries, but like, books on real magic. If that makes any sense."
"YES!" Sarah sad immediately. An exploring buddy was just what she needed. Everything was better with an exploring buddy who could stand her rushing off to see and do new things all the time. "I mean, yes." she said more calmly, laughing at herself.

"I mean, yes." she said more calmly, laughing at herself. It appeared this girl was muggle born. Which meant questions were practically bursting at the seams between her lips which she was sure the girl had heard many times since she arrived at Hogwarts. Keeping them in with as much control as she could muster, Eris smiled "I'd love to read muggle magic book!"
But as quick as the words came out, the latter witch had agreed to Eris' proposition giving Eris a great excitement, her eyes matching the gaint grin plaster on her face.
Children will be children it seemed when it came to her.
Shamelessly chuckling with her new found partner in crime, Eris quickly covered her mouth with the giggles still lit in her eyes as she remembered they were in a library. Voices gotta stay down so they don't lose more house points.
"Where do you wanna go first?" Eris asked in a low voice, her feet itching to move from the library.

You're totally welcome to read it." she said, eager to see what a real witch would think of, say, the witch in Hansel and Gretel. Sarah personally found it slightly insulting to witches, now that she was a witch, but she still enjoyed reading the story.
Sarah tried to keep her laughing down as well, she definitely didn't want to be another Slytherin to lose points. Her entire face was lit up with a huge grin, "There a lots of places to go..." she pondered, "Maybe we should try to find a secret passageway!"
That sounded fun. Secret passageways shouldn't stay secret for long.

That sounded fun. Secret passageways shouldn't stay secret for long. Eris nodded happily, reading was always fun, especially since she was going to get a muggle perspective on witches and wizards. To better prepare her of course for the real world when she walks out in muggle London.
"Secret Passages?" Eris practically glowed. All this talk was right up her alley, and she had at least found one person to join her in her efforts of fun and exploration. "Well...we gotta be sneaky and daring....like real explorers." the young witch added decisively, though she was sure she would stay the Forbidden Forest for last, I mean she wasn't afraid to get in trouble, it was just to far away. Yeah. That's it.
" Follow me!" |

" Follow me!" "Exactly," Sarah nodded, agreeing completely with her new friend's words. Real Explorers
As Eris dashed away, Sarah raced after her.

Isabelle walked into the library with a smile on her face. She was really in the mood to read about healing potions. That was Isa's new ambition. To become a healer. That would be quite wonderful being able to heal others. And she loved potions. That would be something she would surely do.
Pulling down a book from the shelves she sat down and began to read.

She popped another book in her bag she was tired of carrying which was odd Looking around at the books on the shelves, Gwendolyn pulled out a few that seemed interesting, examined theit covers, and then placed most of them back. Finally, she ended up holding only two books about potions in her hands. 'Curious... I've never read a muggle book!', she mumbled, more like to herself. Realizing that she was actually talking to someone, the young ravie looked back at Luna and grinned. Hope she won't get mad that I'm acting wierd..., she thought. 'That sounds great,though', Gwendolyn replied, thinking if she had missed a part from Luna's speech, or meeting friends and spending time with Presley was all she had mentioned. Don't be rude... don't be rude..., the second year kept telling herself. 'Oh, actually I'm looking for anything that has to do with Potions', she replied. Remembering what Ari had been trying to make her understand, Gwendolyn decided to give some relevant details and try being more comunicative. 'Have you seen the Potions lab? I've spend a while there last year brewing some potions', she explained, again, glimpsing at the books on the closest shelves. 'Actually, I think I'll have to get a lot of books. I still want to find some books about flying... or Quidditch... so that...', she started saying. No! Do not finish this sentance with 'so that I finally learn how to fly', she thought. '... so that I find out some new things. I really want to get better' See? I know I could find something smarter to say! 'Plus, I also need to look for a spell...' Hmph, better shut up, Gwendolyn, the young Ravenclaw told herself. Better not mention your crazy idea! 'You?', the second year finally replied, not sure if she had already asked her that. Never mind... 'So... enjoy your time back at Hogwarts?', she then asked while looking at the books she was holding in her hands. This one seems interesting... I'll definitely start with it!, she deicided.

Hmph, better shut up, Gwendolyn, the young Ravenclaw told herself. Better not mention your crazy idea! 'You?', the second year finally replied, not sure if she had already asked her that. Never mind... 'So... enjoy your time back at Hogwarts?', she then asked while looking at the books she was holding in her hands. This one seems interesting... I'll definitely start with it!, she deicided. ''Is it your favourite class?'' she asked curiously ''Once or twice it's awesome there,'' Luna replied now she knew it was her favourite class ''Quidditch! Can you play?,'' she didn't know if Gwen was the sporty type or not but she wanted to find out ''Anything to do with flying and other books just for facts in class and stuff like that!'' Luna replied looking threw another book deciding she'd take it aswell How many books five.. no six great I can get plenty more ''Great so far thanks i've been in the liabrary most of my time and just exploring some more I more or less forgot where everything is!'' Luna admitted which made her feel bad cause Hogwarts was the only place she really felt at home ''How about you?'' she asked and she smiled

Chloe smiled happily to herself as she made her way by the book shelves. She was so excited to be in Hogwarts and not only that but she determined to get on the Quiddich team.
She loved everything about books. The book allways had that new book smell that a computer could never have.
Finally she got to the section where the Quiddich books were, her eyes widened as she looked at them all. how will i read all these she taught to herself as she took one of the books. It was such a beautiful book with a bright red cover. It was very old but that just added to the beauty of the book.
She looked through it as she took a seat. Her eyes lit up with excitement as she red the names and her mind wandered about the day that she too would be in the great books.

The blonde Malfoy with her bag slung on her right shoulder walked down one of the bookshelves in the library. She couldn't believe that she had rarely been in this place during her past five years. Though, the blonde had a feeling that this would become like a second Common Room to her this year because of the dreaded OWLS that would be looming over her at the end of the year. The Malfoy shivered at the thought. Emma didn't want exams! Not yet. She was still on Summer mode, so that meant she wanted to have as much fun as she could before the dratted hours of studying. But, it wouldn't hurt to start looking for some books to help her study from, right? She wanted to do better than well on her OWLS.

Jezabel walked between the library shelves, running her fingertips along the books' spines. Tis was by far her favourite place in Hogwarts so far. Jez took out a few spell books, and walked over to the reading lounge to brush up on a few spells.

Alice walked towards the long rows of shelves piled high with books, a beautiful, childish smile plastered onto her face. Libraries, they just had an odd effect on her. She loved to run down the aisles, letting her hands bump along the spines of books. She loved to tug them from their places and feel the different velvety textures of the covers. She loved to smell that rich, deep scent of ink and paper and time. And more than anything, she loved to open the books, and if the paper was thick enough, and if the letterpress pushed hard enough, she could drift a fingertip across the page and feel the letters, etched into the pages. That was what she loved. And just then, she bumped into someone. She was immediately annoyed, her wonderful thoughts was ruined. But as she turned to see who the disruptive stranger was, she saw none other than her friend, Emma Malfoy.
