"Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe 'I know, right?' tends to be said in the middle of conversation. However, I am displeased, not upset, at what I have written," Lux said offhandedly while continuing her scowl at her journal.

Lux didn't respond, instead opting to close her journal and pull out a different one which she hoped would be more palatable.
Mod
Lux laughed at one of her own sentences.
Mod
Lux flipped the page a couple of times before groaning at seeing an old doodle.
Mod
Apparently, this journal wasn't any better than the last. Lux put it away with a sigh. She didn't try another journal.
Mod
Lux looked at her and frowned. "Why does that matter?"
Mod
Lux shrugged. "Okay. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. I don't know."
Mod
"What are you doing here?" Lux asked eventually, after having closed her eyes for a couple minutes.
Mod
"Ah, the Common Room's busy then? I haven't been there since the morning," Lux replied.
Mod
"Oh. . ." Lux said. "But it was most of the house? Maybe it was a couple of joint study sessions."
Mod
"You don't happen to know the time, do you?" Lux said a little sheepishly.
"What about the time of day?" Lux asked.
"Then we're just as clueless then," Lux laughed.
Mod
Lux sighed, stretching and closing her eyes again, settling to mentally work through a couple potions problems before taking a nap.
Mod
Lux opened one eye. "No. . . .Did you know herbaria is one of the more potent potion ingredients but also one of the least used? You aren't even taught its properties in school." She closed the one eye she'd opened.
Mod
"What are it's properties?"
"To start, it'll explode if you don't keep it at exactly the right temperature," Lux said.
Mod
"And it's technically a potion all in itself, but it is used more in other potions than by itself, so it is classified as a potion ingredient," Lux continued, happy to be talking about her favorite subject.
Mod
((Sorry. Didn't see that you'd posted.))
Lux noticed. "What?" she asked, furrowing her brow.
Lux noticed. "What?" she asked, furrowing her brow.
Mod
((That's okay. I might have to go soon.))
((Okay))
"You were about to say something," Lux pointed out.
"You were about to say something," Lux pointed out.
Mod
((that was a quote. sort of.))
Lux rolled her eyes. "Something, genius. You could tell me."
Mod
Lux frowned. "From your face, I scarcely believe that is true. You look like you're lying."
Mod
"For a second there,you were demonstrating some of the key clues that someone was lying," Lux said slowly, blinking a couple times. She massaged her forehead. "Sorry." She closed her eyes again, wondering how long it would be until Sammy spoke again.
Mod
Lux began to nod off a bit. It wasn't that she was bored. More rather, she had finished her book on potions and had decided against rereading her own journals. In her half-nodded off state, she had always found that she was better at coming up with ideas, and she loved ideas.
Mod
Finally, Lux got an idea and beamed, leaping to her feet. "I've got it!" She exclaimed, jumping to her feet in excitement. "I was working on it for days! Thought if I read my potions books again and maybe looked into historical patterns to try to figure out other ways of thinking and other ideas to help synthesize the information I'd figure it out, and lo! I did!" Lux clapped her hands and laughed.
