Jane sat reading "Home Life and Social Habits of British Muggles by Wilhelm Wigworthy" This was at least the third book she had read about muggles today. Some of them were completely ridiculous, she couldn't honestly believe people had studied to write these books. Were there seriously wizards that believe this? Jane scoffed and closed the book then blew a hair out of her face. She stretched and looked around seeing if she could spot anyone worth talking to.
Today had been rather boring, she had spent more then half of it reading and to make matters worth none of the books were even worth reading. Jane sighed and dropped her head on the table.
She was exhausted, even after doing nothing. Of course she hadn't much had the chance to get any sleep lately, she had spent long nights contemplating here life lately.
She couldn't believe it was only her second year at Hogwarts with everything that had happened and even now it was only a few weeks into school. It seemed like a decade since she lived her normal muggle life with no idea of this existence no idea of the magic she had, she missed that most of all. She sighed again.

Will was perusing the many books in the library. He was more looking for Cursebreaking books, but he could not find any. So, he started to just look around and he soon came across some interesting books, but as he went to read it, Eretria came walking past him, her locket falling from its place. He quickly moved to it and picked it up. He then brought it over to Eretria.

"Hello, Eretria right? Well, yes you dropped this over by those books right there. I hoped that you indeed were the one that dropped this, but I trust that you are. Figured I'd give it back to you," he said, giving somewhat of a smile, but then again...not really

William smirked to himself as she got defensive. She almost seemed like Belle to a point. "Like I told you, this dropped out of your bag over there and I felt the need to return it to you," he said to her, hoping to somewhat reason with her. "I really don't expect an apology. What, what is that book? May I ask? he asked her, hoping to start some kind of small talk, but he wasn't too sure that he would get away with it.

David took a book off the shelf. Even though he did not yet take the class subject he found a book that he found ironic justice. The book was called My Life as a Muggle. It was the account of a witch who gave up magic and her struggles in the real world. David thought that other wizards should do the same and not be so full of themselves.

"Beasts, creatures... what the hell..." Kas muttered slightly in exasperation at the lack of more material on the subject. He wasn't good with wild animals. Someone would die.

A finger trailed across the spines of the books, collecting a light coating of dust on the digit. Kas frowned, not very happy at that but kept looking. So far none of the books had caught his eyes. Holding his fountain pen in his mouth, biting gently on it to keep it in place, the redhead mused in concentration on what else to borrow and read for the moment. Huffing, the small Ravenclaw moved over to the next section, pausing for a moment when he saw a familiar face. Wasn't he the one who contradicted magic at every turn? His lips quirked up in a small smile. It was amusing. Kas might have not been as anti-magic as David was, but he did understand the animosity, aside from the extent, of course.

"That section isn't going to make you any happier," the redhead spoke up, walking towards the taller boy. "If anything it'll make it worse."

David looked up from his book and sighed. He came to the library so he would not be bothered. "Do all ravenclaws stick there beaks in others businesses or is it just the ones I meet."
He went back to his book and turned the page.
"Besides the have you seen the fiction section. The only non-children and pro-magic books are as old as dirt."
The school needed to get more books Charles Dickens and pride and prejudice really where dull compared to some of the books he could get back home and they only had one wizard comic.

"Do all Davids snark and push or is it just the ones that I meet?" Kas retorted gently, laughing at the remark. So much snark. That made, three people now? Something was probably in the air at Hogwarts. "That's a lot of stereotyping there. Not everyone is as evil as you make out to be," the redhead put forward, moving a bit over to look at the other books. "Maybe just some."

Concerning the books? The Ravenclaw went silent for a while, taking interest in one of the leather-bound volumes. After a while he spoke up. "Don't take this the wrong way," he began, pulling out yet another volume. "But try giving the other books a try. If anything, you can laugh at how absurd they are."

"Once you've tried that, go look for some Ravenclaws," he added wryly. "The common room is a treasure hoard of fiction." Going back to the book browsing, Kas mentally ticked off the books on his list of generic volumes to read.

"Well the Davids I've met do that so I guess so."
David put a slip of parchment in the book to keep his place.
"I don't think wizards are any more or less evil then normal people. I just hate the fact that the last 11 years of my life is a lie and everyone tells me to get over it and just except that that I can make fireworks pop out of a stick.... Creo Igniculus"
He said and waved his wad in the air as green sparks flew out of his wand. "Next thing people tell me is Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth fairy all have a tea party every Sunday and I'll have no idea if its true or not."

Is that seriously what they think about muggle law? It's so bias and... ugh... okay, not getting that book for Dad.

Once in a great while, Ronna would explore the library to see if there would be anything that would catch her fancy or her Dad's fancy so that the next time she was in Diagon Alley shopping for school supplies she could pick up the book for herself or him. She had came to the section earlier to look at Magical Law books, but instead end up picking up the book Muggle 'Law & Order' - Complete Guide which by thirty pages in had her gagging so she was back to return the book seeing two first years.

The only thing she caught was the Gryffindor who said 'Next thing people tell me is Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth fairy all have a tea party every Sunday and I'll have no idea if its true or not.' She laughed quietly at the comment and then straight faced said, "Oh they totally do, didn't you get to that part of History of Magic yet? No... seriously, if something doesn't add up investigate. However, I'd stay out of the Muggle Studies section."

David sighed as yet another person came to talk to him, oh joy. He came to the library so not to be bothered. "Oh good and here I thought I was going crazy with thinking that."
Why was everyone on him for looking in the Muggle Studies books he was just there for a laugh at the misconceptions on muggles.
"And I'm not here to learn, I'm board and thanks to all this rutty magic none of my electronics work."
He said still annoyed that wile here he was cut off from everything he enjoyed doing. And unlike the rest of the school he did not find people flying on brooms killing each other with cannon balls entertaining.

Such a charming kid.

Ronna rolled her eyes as she put away the book and said, "Knowledge is power. Isn't it better to know about the wizarding world and be able to do magic than to not know anything about it? Anyways, do what I do about electronics... focus on learning magic and the wizarding world during the school year and get your electronic fix during the summers. God, I have to go months without my Marvel and DC comic online electronic subscriptions and wait till the summer to play catch up."

Ronna shrugged and moved over to the Magical Law books and began to browse the listings, confident the younger Gryffindor would probably have some response to her. After all Gryffindors were rarely the type to remain mum on something.

Taking a step back, the redhead nodded to the two Gryffindors with a wry smile. "Well," Kas spoke, shifting the books in his arms. "It seems you two lions have found each other. I'll take my leave. It was nice meeting you, David, and hello again, Ronna."

With that, the small Ravenclaw walked out of the aisle. Biting his pen again, he wondered whether he still had enough time to dash to the kitchens before the next class.
