Anonimus had finally drug himself out of bed and put on his robes for the day. He didn't have classes today since it was Saturday but he decided to do a little work anyways just for lack of anything else to do. He grabbed his COMC book, some parchment, and a quill and headed for a seat near the fire. He found the common room was pretty deserted since it was quite nice out side and nearing noon. He sighed and opened his book to page 324, trying to make up the year he missed had been harder than he expected. He then started to think of why he had to miss a year of school and got a blank expression on his face. He shook his head to snap out of his daze and returned to his book submerging himself to avoid any and everything else.

Kendra was having something of a bad day, and all she really wanted to do was find a deserted bathroom and cry, just to get rid of the negativity. Crying usually made her feel better.
Unfortunately, it was a tough day to escape, and she found herself back in the common room, heading up the stairs to the dorm. For some reason, on such a nice day, the dorm room was full of all of her dorm mates, and she sighed, grabbing a quill and some parchment and heading back downstairs. Sometimes, being inside felt like being imprisoned to her, but she was so used to it that she rarely ventured outside, here or at home.
The common room was at least mostly empty, so she finally settled there, her eyes on the boy closest to where she sat. He was new. Or no, wasn't he the kid that had been gone for a year? She tried to know everyone at least in her house, but she didn't know him well. He looked engrossed in a book, and she was willing to be engrossed in the letter she would write but never send. But still...
She bit her lip. "What are you reading?"

Anonimus almost jumped at hearing a voice so close to him, he had thought he was pretty alone. He glanced up quickly seeing who was talking to him wondering if it was one of his friends who he would send off in a hurry acting like this was a late assignment. Yet, when he looked at the face before him he had no idea who it was. He blinked she was the first person to talk to him since he got back who wasn't a close friend. He looked at her for a moment, "It's just my Care of Magical Creatures book." He paused and decided it was never good to be rude, "trying to catch back up," he added to make sure he didn't seem irritated with her.

(Was that luck or did you read Kendra's app? She loves animals)
Kendra's face almost lit up. Of all the texts books he could have been studying... she sort of adored that one. She had a thing for animals, and Care of Magical Creatures was her favorite class. "I love that class," she told him, suddenly feeling better and not even realizing that he might have been annoyed at the interruption.
She glanced at his book and frowned slightly. "I don't recognize that cover, though. What year are you?" He was probably ahead of her if she didn't recognize the book, and she wondered what magical creatures were being covered in his class.

(OOC: complete luck, it was his favorite subject when he used to be here)
Anonimus saw her smile and it almost made him smile. He actually grinned to himself and how excited she got over COMC it reminded him a lot of how he used to be. She asked what year he was and he didn't really know how to answer the question directly so he just decided to answer completely. "Well I am a sixth year but I missed a year. It was excused of course but I only did the work I could manage while I was out. So I am trying to make up like half of my fifth year while trying to remain current in my sixth year classes. It's incredibly stressful sounding now that I have said it out loud," he said with a bewildered smile on his face.
"Anyways this is my sixth year book but I am ahead in my sixth year class because it's my best subject," he ran a hand through his hair. This explanation was starting to confuse him and he was the one who should understand it. He shook his head "sorry, to put it simply its my advanced sixth year book."

(OOC: Nice, it worked out)
Kendra's eyes were wide as she listened to him. She was pretty impressed that he was taking two years worth of classes, and in advance classes as well. She liked studying, especially COMC, but she didn't think she was good enough to do all that. "Wow," she said, clearly impressed. "You must have no time for anything else. That's insane."
Then, realizing she was being rude in a way, she stuck her hand out to him. "I'm Kendra," she said. "And I'm a fifth year. If you need any help studying for fifth year classes, I could probably help you," she offered in her usually bubbly, happy way.

He smiled when she said he must have no time for anything else. "Yeah you have no idea," he replied with a bitter irony. The slight depression he was in was making him not want to do anything and all the work didn't give him the opportunity. He wasn't sure if he was grateful for that or not since the only time he felt better was when he was with friends.
He shook her hand in response, "Anonimus White." Anonimus thought for a minute, he wouldn't ever ask for help but since it was just offered he would almost feel rude to turn it down. "Actually, I have been having a bit of trouble in charms," he said running a hand through his hair. Sadly the thing he couldn't figure out was keeping him from advancing in his sixth year class and it would be nice to have another view on it he thought to himself.

"You shouldn't work so hard," Kendra said. "Afterall, in a couple of years, none of this will matter anyway, will it?" She wasn;t really one to talk. She studied like the rest of them, almost enough to be a Ravenclaw... in the classes she liked, anyway. But she was a firm believer that things had to get better. There had to be more than this, and that extended outside of classes as well.
"Tell you what, let's sneak down to the kitchens and get something to eat, and then we'll come back up and settle into books and studies. How does that sound? I happen to actually really like Charms."
