RP: Al, Severus
Who: Al, Severus
Where: the library
When: 31 October, evening
Summary: It's book cleaning day, so Al follows his schedule
Al figured that Severus would be quite busy in the afternoon with the arrival of the students, so he contributed to the final rush of preparations by staying out of the way.
It's not as if Al didn't have things to do. The thirty-first of the month was book cleaning day. Book cleaning days were important.
Therefore, Al took care of his books, then Severus' books, and then their joint reading material. Afterwards he cast a critical look at their own rooms, patted down the ruffled Compendium which didn't even try to snap at him today, and headed down to the library. In the absence of the librarian's care, the library books deserved to be prepared for the future readers as well.
Al used them often enough, he supposed he might as well contribute here. It was later, after he finished all the clean-up and organizing he'd meant to do, that he stood between the shelves of his sanctuary, and inhaled deeply, enjoying the scent and the twilight and the absolute silence.
He pictured the worn parchment on the inside of many opened tomes, the faded ink of many words and numbers and commas, and wished, for the first time, that he would once again, one day, hear the rustle of flipped pages.
