Hermione growled as she slammed a heavy book down onto a secluded table in the lubrary, the 4th year muttering to herself as she brushed some hair behind her ear and sat down to do some studying. As usual she was annoyed with Harry and Ron.....yet again they had done something insanely stupid to get on her bad side, and she was doing what she always did when she needed to cool down, study. Reading something she had never read before always helped her calm down, learning something new....it was her way of relaxing really.

"Ok....." The girl sighed, taking a deep breath before opening the book, beginning to read it slowly and silently, totally by herself as usual. She had never really been able study with others before, not even Harry or Ron. It was odd really....but it was just the way she was. "Those boys....feh...all the boys in this school....all the same....damned idiots...."
 
Krad was standing one bookshelf over, looking through a history book of Norwegian dragon slayers. He heard Hermione's book slam down and he looked up. He heard a voice muttering as casually walked out from behind the books. "Hey now, there are some decent guys here." He responded. He flashed a smile at her and suck the book back on the shelf. "Some of us still have dignity."
 
At first Hermione didn't notice Krad's presence or hear his first remark, though when he spoke again she glanced up and practically glared at him, narrowing her eyes as she stared. "Hmph, dignity, yeah right. All you men are exactly the same" She just glared for another moment, then looked away back to her book in order to begin studying.
 
"We could say the same about you." He chuckled a bit, moving toward her. "Aren't you a bit young to be worrying about boys anyway?" He knew a little about this girl, mostly who she was friends with, and that she was a very good student.
 
"You can never be too young to worry about boys, especially the two I'm stuck with..." Hermione grumbled and looked back to her book. "So did you want anything or are you just trying to waste my time like the rest of them? If it's the former, say what it is and go away. If it's the latter, just go away" The girl was clearly in a bad mood....
 
"Well I was going to ask why such a pretty girl was in the library on a Sunday, but I suppose you just told me your reason." He looked down at the book. "Most of the school is down in Hogsmead. But you'd rather read?"
 
Hermione blinked at his comment, looking at Krad strangely for a few moments, before just rolling her eyes and looking back to her book. "I was down there until the idiots decided to go a little too far with their fun, so I just left them to it. Now, why don't you go join them? You boys are good at wasting your time aren't you? UGh......I'm beginning to understand why some women go and become lesbians...."
 
"I usually would. But the magic of Hogsmead has grown a bit dry for me. It does for most of the older students." He leaned against the bookcase beside the table. "So now I just wander around the halls. Looking for something to do." Most of the friends he had made were in other houses, and he often wondered why he was put in Ravenclaw anyway. Everyone there was sort of stuffy and boring.
 
"Is that so?" Hermione was only half paying attention to him as he spoke, more focused on taking notes from her book than having a conversation with him. "Shouldn't you be studying or something? You're a Ravenclaw aren't you? Start acting like it. Or by 'looking for something to do' were you speaking more along the lines of people than an activity?" She rolled her eyes again.
 
"Well aren't you a Griffindor?" He scoffed. "Aren't you supposed to be out looking for adventures or something." He rolled his own eyes, the girl's attitude was starting to annoy him a little.
 
"I've had quite enough of 'adventure' to last me a lifetime already" She just turned the page to carry on reading. "Besides, I'm sure Harry and Ron will drag me along and need me to save them as usual..."
 
"Oh? So you're the real hero eh?" He laughed, tugging a book from the shelf. "Learn everything from books can you?" He leafed through the pages a moment before closing it and selecting another.
 
"I never said I'm a hero, just that I have to keep getting them out of trouble they got themselves into" Hermione rolled her eyes, turning another page. "And yes, as a matter of fact, you can learn everything from books if you're willing to read and pay enough attention"
 
"There's still a few things that aren't in books. These books anyway..." He looked all around at the shelves, the old tattered books looking back. "And books aren't practice either."
 
"Hmph, everything is in books if you go to the right book. If you think it's not in a book then you're just not looking hard enough" Hermione rolled her eyes and turned the page of her book. "And books are plenty of practice. If you can't do it first time after studying it you didn't study it right"
 
"So you've studied everything have you?" He asked, leaning against the desk. "Know how to do it all?"
 
"I've studied everything that I feel I need to" She turned another page in the book. "And I know more than enough thank you, certainly more than any idiotic boy I'm sure"
 
"I bet you there's some things the older students know about that you don't. Since your so young." He looked down the isle at some 7th years messing around with their wands.
 
"Just because they've taken classes I haven't doesn't mean they know things I don't, I pride myself on studying ahead. I make it a point to read the text books that every year are set, not just my own"
