Apollo Firahel
Apollo Firahel is a Tanned Fae Male of teenage appearance, with Light Gold Eyes, and White Hair of Finger length. Standing exactly six feet tall, he is wearing
Blue Jeans and a Red Tee-Shirt, as well as Black Shoes. The Sword of Thorns is sheathed to his left hip, held up by a leather belt with a plastic belt buckle.

He was studying one of the many books scattered around the table he had sat at. Among the books, you might have noticed Twilight as well as a hastily scrawled note right below it. He was holding a book about an inch off the table tilted ever so slightly toward himself. The cover of the book was bound in leather and the pages, stark white.
Twilight

Interesting? Ideas?
I do not know what I was expecting.
Maybe a retelling of a vampire-werewolf conflict?

If you have a mind-reading ability you sense the following:

"I need another book on vampires, where did the librarian go? I can barely find anything in this stupid library! I think I should have worn green. It suits me better than red. Although it is Autumn. No, I have to focus!"

It had been a day, a very long day, and Liliana still was not done. She had to look up a few answers for her homework on the history and evolution of social awareness in the 20th and 21st century.

Although, to be honest, the redhead, dressed casually in faded jeans and a knitted red fuzzy sweater, would have been much happier checking out a book to read instead of doing her homework.

"Excuse me?" Liliana said in her lilting Welsh accent as she scanned the book filled table and its white-haired occupant. "Is the seat taken?" she asked politely as she set her books down on an empty chair.

"No, that seat is not taken you may sit if you choose" Apollo met the eyes of the redhead that was near him.
"I am Apollo and who are you? If I may ask of course"
Apollo had stood by this point, the sword at his hip making a clinking sound against the table as he lowered his head.
Apollos Thoughts-

"A fellow library goer? In the library? IMPOSSIBLE! Is it Irish? Kilts are cool. Maybe they know about vampires?"

Taking a seat at the table across from Apollo, Liliana thanked him.

"Very nice to meet you, Apollo. I'm Liliana," she said with a friendly smile as she introduced herself to him.

"I see you have been busy," she said referring to all the books scattered about on the table before him. "Are you researching something for class? Or is it a personal interest in something?" she asked curiously, having caught a glance at the title of a popular book about vampires among the books.

"Liliana? I like that name. I'm researching vampires for a personal project I'm working on! Well actually I'm researching all kinds of monsters but for now vampires"
Apollo gestured to the book that sat on the table, the blank leather one when he uttered: "personal project".

At this point, Apollo had taken a moment to look Liliana over.

"Are you studying for a class? Or just hear to read books?"

"Unfortunately, today it's homework," she grimaced. "I am studying to be a social worker," Liliana explained as she placed her books on the table. All of them had titles such as "Culture Awareness - A New Movement", "Misappropriating - Compliment or Insult?", and "Social Changes of the 20th Century".

"Vampires tend to very interesting people," Liliana mused as she opened a book. "Have you interviewed any yet?" she asked Apollo.

"Homework sucks. I just got here a few days ago so right now I doubt I'll get any."
Apollo brushed a hand through his hair to keep it out of his face.
"I have not interviewed a vampire yet! I'd go looking around but as you can see its day time!"
Apollo gestured outside of a nearby window.

Apollos Thoughts-

"Can you hear my thoughts? Are you in my head? Get out of my brain! You'll give me brain worms. Do vampires have vampire sunblock?"

Liliana glanced up from her book at Apollo when he pointed out that it was daytime and gave him a sort of amused look. "Not all vampires sleep during the day," she explained as she folded her arms and leaned against the table while talking to Apollo.

"There are day walkers," she said, her homework forgotten momentarily. "Vampires who can tolerate the sun to some extent."

"Well, that did not occur to me in the slightest."
Apollo's face reddened just a tad. He jotted a note down and slid it into his pocket.
"Have you met a vampire? Are they as awesome as books say?"
Apollos Thoughts-

"Mythical beasts are my specialty. How did I get outclassed by a soon to be social worker."

"Yep, I've met quite a few vampires actually. There are quite a few here at the school. One of my best friends' girlfriend is a vampire and a daywalker too," Liliana said referring to Alma, Iggy's girlfriend.

"There are tons of mythical creatures here at Starlight. A lot of them, like myself, look human or are wearing human charms," she explained as she took one of her books and opened it without looking at it.
