[L] A favorite book

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa grinned as she practically ran into the library, her bookbag swinging at her side. She had suffered through a dreadfully boring day and wanted only to sit down and read a favorite book of hers. Choosing a secluded table far away from the others, she set her bookbag down and dug inside for her book. Finding it, she smiled, her fingers trailing across the gold, elegant writing.

"Sleeping Beauty." She whispered to herself, her eyes scanning the cover before quickly turning to the first page.

[Jerred Boneman]

"I though you'd have read that already!" Jerred said, as he approached Lisa.

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa had just finished reading the couple first words of the chapter before she heard a sound behind her. Turning around, she saw Jerred and smiled at him.

"I haven't had the chance!" She said, a bit regretfully. "Though, i've looked over the illustrations at least a million times..." She said, with a small laugh. "They're so beautiful, you never get tired of them."

[Brian Chase]

Brian walked up to them, "I love this Cinderella story. Its the best one."

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa's eyes brightened and she nodded. "See, Jerred, it's not so terrible for a boy to like this book," she said, a grin on her face.

Then, looking to Brian, she smiled. "Though, Snow White was a close second." She said, with a dreamy sigh.

[Brian Chase]

"Oh, I love the part were the one cousin cut off the big toe to fit her heel into the glass slipper, an the other one cuts off her heel."

((ooc:It real, my friend has it.))

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa grinned, shaking her head. "Of course you'd like that part! Though, the ball was my favorite," she said, her eyes glazing over. Then, flipping the page, she looked at Brian cheerfully.

"You're welcome to read along with me if you want!" She said, with friendly eyes.

[Brian Chase]

"I think I'll just read these wonderful pages of Cinderella."

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa nodded with a smile, before turning back to her book, her fingers gently turning the old, yellowed pages.

[Brian Chase]

Brian sat down and read his story, he saw some pictures and laughed quietly.

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa grinned at him, before looking at the clock on the other side of the wall. It was getting late, and she still had loads of homework to finish. taking a notebook and textbook out of her bookbag, she sighed and pulled a face.

[Jerred Boneman]

Jerred couldn't help but laugh. "You know Brian, you probably don't have any idea what Cinderella is about."

[Lisa Turpin]

Laughing slightly, Lisa turned to Jerred. "Oh, but I'm sure he knows its a romance-based fairytale about how two people fall in love thanks to some useful magic and a glass slipper!" She gushed, her eyes sparkling. "It's actually very sweet."

[Prof Octavious Everritt]

"Indeed it is." Leigh said, overhearing the conversation. "I'm what a Pureblood would call a mudblood, so I grew up around muggle stories. Well at least I thought I was a mudblood, but infact a half-blood. That's not the point now, anyway, just remember that every muggle story that contains magic is infact somehow related to our world, that way it feels somewhat real."

[Lisa Turpin]

Lisa looked over at her Head Of House and listened intently to what he said. Her eyes held a hopeful glint as she asked, "So, does that mean it's possible Cinderella could have existed in the Wizarding World years and years ago?" Turning to the borrowed copy of Sleeping Beauty, her eyes looked even more joyous. "And what about Aurora?" She asked, more excitedly than she had intended.
