Book Sorting((Open))

[Kat]

Kat walked into her dorm's common room and sat down in the middle of the floor. She dumped the very large stack of books on the floor in front of her. The librarian had discarded some more books and Kat had the oppourtunity to go through them first and keep whatever she liked. She sighed as she picked up the first book.
"Why did I pick this up?" She asked herself quietly, emerald green tail flicking side to side beside her. "This is one of the stupidest books I've ever seen." She put it to the side and picked up another book.

Echo had never been in his dorm house common room, and decided to give it a shot. He saw a girl sorting books on the floor. "Hello," He outstreched his hand, "the name is Echo."

[Kat]

Kat looked up slightly as a guy walked into the dorm. She shook his hand briefly and smiled at him.
"Hi. Name's Katriana, but you can call me Kat." She looked back at the book pile and picked up another one. She tossed it into the "throw away" pile. She sighed before falling backwards and landing on the floor. She closed her eyes and rested.

[swampfox]

"You must be tired,... Kat." He paused for a moment and let the strange name sink in. "You don't hear that name to often. I guess you could call me Tom." He looked at the piles of books. "Are all of these yours?"

[Kat]

"Well, until I go through them." She said before sitting back up. "The librarian goes through old books once a month, and when they're too out of date or beaten up, she throws them away. I asked her if I could go through them first and keep the ones I want. So, when I get done, I'll return the unwanted books to her to let her dispose of them however she does it." Kat spoke cheerfully and precisly.
"So, Tom, have you been here long and where are you from? Since we're sharing a dorm and on the same team, we should get to know each other better so we'll know each others strengths and weaknesses." She said quickly while her emerald tail swished beside her. "I'm from Georgia, although it's hard to tell because I have almost no accent. I can control plants and I've been here for...um...I don't know how long, actually." She said the last bit with a nervous laugh. "What about you?" Her emerald ears twitched as they turned towards him, out of habit.

Grant sauntered into the room and threw himself into a chair. HE glanced at the pile of books and shook his head. Books and reading always bored him.

[Kat]

Kat looked over as another guy entered the room.
"Hello!" She smiled and waved at him cheerfully. "I'm Kat!"

[Twilight]

Feuer glanced up at the girl for a second. He then looked back at the pile of books. Those would be fun to burn. He decided not to be completely rude at the moment. "Feuer" He nodded slightly.

[Kat]

Kat looked the guy over before turning back to the pile of books.
"So, Feuer was it? What's your power? I'm a second generation plant controler. I get my attributes from my dad." She was very talkative today; maybe it was because of the new books or the entire section she recieved on alchemy and chemistry. Whatever the case, she was really hyper today.

[Twilight]

Feuer looked up and smiled evily. He had been waiting for this question. Looking around he saw a book that had fallen out of the 'toss' pile. In an instant the book caught on fire. The flames grew larger and began to turn colors.

Feuer stuck out his hand and part of the flames returned to his hand. He stared into it smiling. "That answer your question?"

[swampfox]

"Well I'm form Iowa." He looked at the Pyro on the other side of the room. And at the smoldering ashes on the ground. "I can manipulate sound. Not that exiting though." He began to float in the air. "I vibrate my body allowing me hover." He dropped to the ground, "Or run very fast. Every thing else, I wouldn't want to do indoors."

[Twilight]

Feuer looked up at Echo and smirked. "You can't trust yourself to not destroy anything." He chuckled. "Or perhaps you don't have enough control of your powers?"

[Kat]

"Fire. Pretty." Kat looked mezmorized at the fire as it changed colors then snapped herself out of it. "Sound's cool too. How long have you been here?" She asked as she picked up another book.

[swampfox]

Echo looked at Feuer, "I have control, it's just that I don't want to risk anything. I mean I can do more things that are safer, but there not as cool as the other things I can do." Echo was mixed up by his own words. "Sorry. For someone that controls sound, I don't talk well."
He looked back at Kat, "I've been here for a couple weeks. But I've been sleeping in one of the spare rooms. They just assigned me a dorm, I thought I get acquainted with it, so to speak."

[Kat]

Kat nodded as she looked through another book.
"I can't really remember how long I've been here. I'm not good with keeping up with time." She said with a small nervous laugh. "It's been a while, but I haven't really had the time to come in here, with all my school work and stuff. I've gotten tired of carrying an armload of books outside with me, so I just came here, since it's closer."

[swampfox]

Echo found a chair and sat down. "So how many times have you been in the Danger Room?"

[Kat]

"None to train. I went there once to apologize to these two guys, but since we haven't had a team training session, I haven't really given it much thought. I'm a thinker, not a fighter." Kat said, a small smile on her face, as she picked up another book. "Plus, my power's are really made for indoors. Except for this." She put the book down before grabbing her small dragon pendant necklace. She quickly opened the glass vile that the dragon held and dumped out a small seed into her open palm. She showed them the seed on her palm before making it grow into a full-grown geranium plant, roots and all. After a minute, a flower bloomed on it, a deep blood-red.
"I love geraniums."
