Hoorah for books!

The blue-haired-girl walked into the room filled with books, merely looking around. She had no idea what she had come here for, but she did know she planned on leaving with quite a few books. The young woman loved reading, and often found it as a way to get her mind off of her own troubles. And her current trouble? Trying to decide whether she was ready for marriage or not. Agilitson had proposed not to long ago, and of course, she had said she would when she was ready. When would that be?

November shook her head, almost as if trying to shake the thought from her head. She started walking through one of the many rows of books, looking at all the titles and authors to keep her mind off of everything. As of yet, she saw nothing that interested her, so she merely continued looking.

Upon hearing foot steps near by, November raised an eyebrow somewhat and looked in the direction of the sound. She blinked when she saw Agilitson, and groaned inwardly. Just when her mind had gotten off marriage, he had to show up. She loved him, but even so, she didn't want to be forced to think about this. She looked down and noticed the younger girl, an eyebrow raising a tiny bit, but she offered the small girl a smile before looking back to Agilitson. "Hi," she said.

November offered the girl another smile upon seeing her nervousness. She looked to Agilitson, still waiting for him to explain who she was. Hopefully it wouldn't be another girl that wanted him to herself. She doubted that would happen, though, seeing as the girl looked quite young and her boyfriend was a teenager.

"..... Young Starling here seems to have attached herself to me for some reason that is currently unknown to me."

The young woman nodded, and turned to Starling, crouching down so that she was eye level with the girl. "Hi, Starling," she greeted, holding out her hand for the girl to shake. "I'm November, Nov or Nova for short. Where'd you meet my fiance?"

She just had to make it known that he was taken. She didn't want another girl, no matter how young, wanting Agilitson to date them or the like.

November raised an eyebrow a little bit when the girl moved away from her. She hadn't done anything threatening, had she? Well, besides mentioning that Agilitson was hers, but that didn't really count as a threat. She looked to Agilitson when he explained, and nodded her head to Starling to pretty much say that was what she had meant.

"We meet in the lounge."

"Oh, I see," the young woman said with a warm smile. "How old are you, Starling? You look awfully young to be at this school all by yourself!"

"I may only be ten, and I'm only here because my pearents feared my ability.... But I don't mind being abandoned here. I'm just happy to be with other people that have abilities."

Ten? Wow. That was two years before the usual age limit, wasn't it? Either way, that poor girl probably hadn't had much of a child hood. For her parents to hate her abilities... it just seemed wrong. She offered the girl a comforting smile. "Yeah. You're with other people who won't hate you because you're different. And trust me, sweetie, there is NOTHING wrong with being different," she said.

".... She looks up at me like I'm a big brother to her."

That was understandable, seeing as how the girl had no other real family. "I see," she said. "And yes, I like her." She was silent, then looked back to Starling. "Would you happen to want a big sister?" she asked her. If she had a big brother, then surely she would want a big sister as well... at least, in November's opinion she might.
