Wind and Ripples (Open)

[lunarkagegami]

This day was nice and cool with a soft breeze that went through the trees around Hogwarts School. Lunar had grown to love this place so fast. He was a small boy for his age but quick and very couragous except when it came to evil, little spiders. He feared those things more then Dark Wizards and thats saying something.
He was happy to have been sorted into Gryffindor but had no friends as of yet. All he did was take lessons and read, not really talking much to anyone, strange boy. He had strange red-green colored eyes that were slanted due to his japanese heritage and he seemed to like blood pops, so it was kind of easy to figure out what he really was. Vampire or in this case, half vampire but he has never attacked or hurt anyone so he is safe. In classes he sometimes asks questions that can make people laugh but right now he was alone on this cold day.
The Black Lake was one of his favorite places to sit around and think as he watches the ripples from the wind in the dark water. He looks at the ripples with unblinking eyes.
"So beautiful.. wish others can see the beauty the water can make" His little english-japanese accent slipped from his lips as he talks to himself.

[Fiona Sheppard]

It was the beginning of her last year at Hogwarts, a bitter sweet ending. This place was like home to Fiona, a place where she could be safe. It was a beautiful weekend day, and instead of doing her school work, Fiona grabbed one of her favorite story books from her trunk and headed down to the lake. School work wasn't something she really enjoyed doing, but that didn't mean she got dreadful grades. They were fair marks, and what she deserved. It didn't matter much to her, because it wasn't like they mattered much to anyone else, especially her father.

The breeze whipped around her curly mess of hair which was thankfully tied back. Though a few strands the framed her face hung loose, now flying around everywhere. The breeziest area of the school grounds tended to be the lake. The vast open space meant a perfect place for air to swirl around. As the water started to come into view she saw a boy just staring down at the water. Just as she approached, she heard him say, "So beautiful.. wish others can see the beauty the water can make"

Fiona smiled. She knew what he was talking about. The way the water could be still like glass or as violent as a maelstrom. Normally she would keep to herself, but she thought she may have some things in common with this Gryffindor, judging by his robes.

"I can see it," she said quietly with a smile and standing next to him, her book hanging in her hand along her side. It was quiet for a moment, the wind still blowing around, just not as strongly as before. "Its a shame not many others take the time to observe it. Not only the water, but all of nature."
