Cloud glanced up from her desk and stared out past her light. The window in her room was open, as was her door. The cross-breeze slightly ruffled her papers, and Cloud placed a small hand on top of them to stop them from blowing away. The stars were a major interest of hers, but she could never find anything about them in the library. She sighed, hoping that someone would come along and help her.
"Shipoopi for being a Bookgirl if I don't even know about stars..."

((I think this RP was practically tailor made for me. Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi, the girl who's hard to get! ))
Kunst had been asked to deliver a book to Cloud by bookman. she arrived at her door and knocked.
"Hey Cloud, I need to give you something, lemmie in!"

((Eh, the door is open... Which girl are you talkin bout? Cloud or Spica?))
Cloud turned around quickly and her papers flew everywhere. "D***it Spica! You have to startle me likey that? And call me Taryn!" she cursed as she reaced around and grabbed at the papers. She finally got them all togerther and held them in a tight roll. No need for anyone to read her journal.
Cloud glanced at the object in Spica's hands. "Is that the book Bookman was telling me about?"
((P.S., the reason Cloud knows her name is Spica is because she heard it when Toki was talking to Spica at the nighttime. Yes, she has been around that long, but nobody knew... >.> Or maybe it was something else... *cough*Toki*cough*))

((uh...no, it's a song from family guy. Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi, but you can win her yet!))
Kunst twitched involuntarily.
"Watch your tongue, dollface."
she handed the book to her, or was about to, when she stopped.
"If I call you Taryn, then you will call me kunst. I only gave Toki permission to call me that. You have no right to say it."
Kunst looked up at the stars.
"You have a nice view of the sky from here. oh, and this is a perfect time of year to see Cassiopeia. That constellation is upside-down more than half the time it's visible in this reigon....oh, and capricorn is right over there...I think Krory's a capricorn, too...."

((WE aren't in the library. And only reply if you are goin to talk to either Spica, or Cloud.))
Cloud nodded. "I called you Spica because it was spur of the moment. Sorry," she mumbled.
She listened intently to the star lecture Sp- *Kunst!* gave her. She discarded the vampire-symbol and she searched for the two star constellations. "Will you point them out to me?" she asked humbly, knowing she was in the presence of a great star master.
((@at-KUNST~~~ HEH! Dollface! Love it!))

((Ne, sorry, you must think I'm stupid, but your way is different than the one I'm used to RPing so I'll apologize and ask you to bear with me. -_-  ) Arisa heard Kunst talking and stopped. She was the kind of person who hated barging in when others were talking, but the rash part of her couldn't resist. "Ah! Hi guys, mind if I join you? The stars are so beautiful." "Ah, um... Cloud?" Talking to Cloud always seemed to make Arisa nervous. She felt... inadequate, standing next to the training bookman, who was so smart. "Is this for your training or for fun?" she asked, smiling. |

((OH THANK GOD someone new decided to join!! and it's fine! just get used to it over time, it's not like we're breathing down your neck or anything.))
Kunst smiled. "Oh, that's fine, Arisa. see, Cassiopeia is that weird zigzag shape. you can't really see her, but it's supposed to make up her throne. and There's a myth about her that even involves a sea serpent, which is just a little further below her, see?"
Kunst looked around the sky.
"Hmm...can't seem to find that one..."
((Please, don't bother checking the times that these constellations are in the sky, because I did no research. I know the names and shapes of constellations, but I haven't the foggiest of how far apart they are from each other in the sky or what times of year they appear. but the shapes and names are all pretty much correct."

((Heheh, I'm not worried or anything, I'm sure I'll catch on! I'm glad I joined~ the more the merrier, right? ^^))
Arisa watched and tried to follow Kunst to the best of her abilities, seeing the zig-zag shape and nodding. She tried to remember what she had ever heard about constellations... "Oh? A sea serpent? Was that Hydra? Or... was it Draco?" A puzzled look crossed her face and she laughed, hitting her head. "Can't remember."
"Do you know the story?" she asked, interested.
((Don't worry, I have no idea either. >.> The only things I remember, I learned in fourth grade I think. That was the last time we talked about stars in science.))

Kunst laughed.
"No, the Hydra was the beast that Hercules fought in one of his twelve labors. Cassiopeia was a vain queen who claimed that her beauty was even greater than the sea nymphs. When the sea nymphs heard this, they told Posiedon, god of the sea, what she had said. He then cast a curse upon the land where Cassiopeia reigned, sending a sea serpent down. eventually, after many years of suffering, the gods presented an omen. The king and queen would have to sacrifice their daughter, Andromeda, I think it was, to the sea monster, and that would end it. Just as the monster was about to attack, the hero with winged feet slew the monster by showing it the head of the monster Medusa."
((So....tired....look....at....time....of....post....))

Arisa couldn't help but laugh. Not really at the story, but at herself. And she felt comfortable letting her guard down.
"Wow, I was pretty far off, huh. Still, that's really an interesting story. Where did you learn something like that?" She felt a swell of pride. "My master... that is, the guy who taught me to play the violin... he used to tell me things like that: information I never really knew what to do with. But I still liked listening. It reminds me of that, sort of." She smiled.
((Holy early~ XD I don't have a thought process at that time of morning.))

Cloud just listened to the small talk coming out between Kunst and Arisa.
"You people realize this is my room, right?"

Arisa gasped. "S-sorry! I guess I really did forget." she sighed. "I'm sorry if it was bothering you. We're not interrupting your studies or something, are we?!" The panic came back. The last thing she wanted was to upset Cloud. "It's just... you have such a nice view here." she smiled, pointing to the sky they had been examining moments before.

Cloud hissed in pure annoyance and nearly activated one of her fox paws. "Well," she snarled. "I had been writing something and then both of you walk in... Arisa for no reason that I see and Kunst for a very specific reason!" Cloud rubbed her tample slowly in hopes of getting rid of the coming headache.
"Arisa, you don't want to panic around me. It doesn't help..."

It took everything she had, but she was determined not to freak out, despite the fact that it looked like she was about to get a facefull of scratches. "Right! Of course you're busy... umm, I'll try to remember not to panic in front of you." Noticing the tell-tale motions she was making, she figured that she was giving her a headache. "I know!" she pulled out some medicine and held it out for Cloud. "Since it's partially my fault, this is for your headache!" she smiled, offering it up to Cloud.

Kunst sighed.
"Oh, come on, dollface.Take it easy."
She turned her attntion back to Arisa.
"What's that you got there, Ari? can I call you that, Ari?
