Cormac & Merri ; The Tower Library | 8 AM
A strange noise pulled Merri out of his concentration. Knitting his brows together, he took a moment to try to recognize the sound -- ah, snoring. He chuckled lightly to himself, for this was not a new thing, but he knew he had to find the source so that the others in the library would not be distracted from their studies. He neatly stacked his papers together and shuffled them to the side and stood to locate the person who had perhaps started their reading before they had fully woken up.
He didn't have to go far. His eyes widened as he recognized the mage who was making all the noise, but a small smile soon crossed his face. After all that had happened in the last couple of months, Merri could not blame Cormac for his exhaustion, though he was surprised to see him here and so early in the morning.
Gently, Merri placed a hand on Cormac's shoulder and shook. "Cormac," he whispered. "Wake up."
