Silentium:.

[Emily Desser]

It was a strange day for Emily today. Today was different to most days, today Emily actually felt like doing something. She wasnt doing a lot, but she was doing something. Emily was just walking around the corridors, near her common room. She was walking extremly slow, really, but at least she was walking.

Some things about Emily were normal though, she was still alone, and she was still staring at, and thinking about nothing. Mainly, whenever a thought did enter her head, Emily was wondering why she was walking around in the first place, why bother. Maybe it was that something had happened overnight, something had changed her.

This thought scared Emily, she never wanted to change, never. Emily had always hated change, and she always would. But something had changed, and Emily wasnt liking it at all.

[Shawn O'Shea]

Even with no particular place to go, Shawn was walking really fast. In his haste, he ran right into some girl sauntering alone down the hall.
"Bloody hell!" he exclaimed. "Sorry, didn't see you there." He offered her a hand up in apology for his lack of attention. Anyone who knew Shawn, knew if he had run into any guy, he would've ignored them or come of with a sarcastic remark.

[Emily Desser]

Emily continued walking, she wasn't paying much attention to anything else going on around her. So when a boy suddenly bumped into her, she suddenly became alert. "Oh it's okay, partly my fault as well. I wasn't really looking either." She replied quickly, not letting him taking all the blame.

Although, he had been running particualy fast, Emily felt it was also partly her fault. However Emily couldn't help wonder why he was running so fast, she really didn't know how he could be in such a hurry. Still, that was just curiosity.

[Shawn O'Shea]

"Um, okay," Shawn made a a funny face with his ever-so expressive eyebrows. "I guess I'll see you around then?" he mused and took a step in the direction he had originally been headed.

[Danelle Chang]

Dani was randomly wandering the halls as usual. She was compleatly paying attention when she bumped into someone. Being pretty clumsy she fell.

[Shawn O'Shea]

"Bloody Hell!" Shawn exclaimed. This was the second or third person he'd literally run into today...he beginning to lose count.
Seeing his latest victim sprawled out on the floor, he offered her a hand up.
"Feeling a bit like Tom O'Bedlam today. And you?"

[Danelle Chang]

"I just am having a horrible day...I forgot to do my homework in all my classes, my skateboard was stolen and to top it all off I can never get a hold of my sister. I just need a brake from all the stress of things." She took his hand and jumped up off the dusty floor. She brushed the dirt off of her skirt and legs. "I'm Dani...You are?"

[Shawn O'Shea]

"Shawn O'Shea, who thinks it really sucks that you're having such a lame day."
He made a goofy, apologetic face of despair.
"And as far as sisters go- maybe I know her."

[Danelle Chang]

"Haha...Very funny. My sister is never around anymore her name is Brianna Chang. Chances are likely you don't know her." She stared at the floor.

[Shawn O'Shea]

"Ah, but I used to."
He tilted his head dramatically toward the ceiling and said "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away," and laughed.
Seeing her staring at the floor, he propped her face up with his hand and told her to worry.

[Danelle Chang]

She giggled as she stood there. "So...you can be very funny. What else can you do?"
