[She's in the Slytherin Common room as per usual with a book in her lap even more as per usual. Rose hasn't really found much time to devote to these devices, as she's been rather absorbed in being a real motherfucking wizard at a real motherfucking wizard school. The girl must have plowed through a good portion of the library already. However, now

I can let you borrow one or two of my textbooks, Lalonde. [ Thinks that's her name; he remembers hearing it bandied about the common room of an evening. ] As long as you get them back to me within a week. They'd be third-year level.

[There's a sort of wry smile on her face and she gives him a once-over. Slytherin sure does have it's share of suspicious, thinly framed males.]
I don't suppose you're intent on releasing clandestine information such as what these texts may pertain to?

[ Suspicious? Never! FIGHT ME, LELOUCH. ]
If you tell me which subjects you'd like more information on, I'll pick up something else when I go to the library tonight.

As for what I may find most captivating: Tomes in reference to the bestially strange or destructive magics enshrouded by the mists of time and superstition.

[ Wryly, he quirks a brow at her. Nice, Lalonde, just set him up to look like some crazy wizard bent on the Dark Arts. Hahaha ... ha. Luckily, he has some experience with sassy young girls owing to his little sister, so when he does crack a wider smile it's entirely facetious in return, albeit on friendly terms. ]
Either Yagami or just Light is fine.

...If she needs to, of course.
Yes, definitely if.]
Light. [A soft chuckle to herself. This gives "Seer of Light" a whole new meaning!
...
God that was a lame joke.
She reminds herself to never bring it up again.]

Is it busy in the common room right now? I'd prefer not to come back while it's heaving.

As if Slytherin Dungeon could ever be a bustling social hub.
Languid as ever down here.

I'll return tonight around ten o'clock. If there are any stragglers, do you think you could clear them for me? I can also deliver your books when I arrive.
[ >Light: Be clandestine as shit. By which he really means, a favour for a favour. How right you were, Rose. ]

I think you'll find such an endeavor is well within my specific skillset.
The room will be empty when you return, sans myself.

Great. I'll see you in a few hours, Lalonde, depending on what I can turn up to satiate your interests.

It reads like the kind of thing a creepy little preteen would like, at any rate, and seems pretty useful.
Entering the common room at a stroll, the same he has employed while navigating the castle back to the Slytherin dungeon and avoiding Mrs Norris, Light paces down the steps seemingly at his leisure. ]

That was a little embarrassing.
Positioning herself upright and waving him over with a gentle, fluid motion toward her chest. The entire common room is vacant except for her and she made sure to rig most of the surrounding doors with a colloportus spell so as to buy time were anyone intent on barging in during their apparently clandestine meeting.]
Greetings.

But he honestly just thinks she's pretty wordy. ]
Good evening. [ Offering the book to the short second-year, he absently directs his wand to a free leather sofa, the invisible object at his side landing with a rustle - she knows he's up to something, so there's no point pretending otherwise. Besides, it's giving him a cramp in his wrist from levitating the damned thing all the way from the Quidditch pitch while keeping it concealed. ] This is for you. It's third-year magic, hedging on fourth, but even if you've read a lot of similar works I'd bet there's one or two interesting nuggets in there. I checked a few ( ... )

How meticulous of you, I do hope my little errand did not prove too onerous. [And when she has it in both hands, she'll tuck it under her arm. Craning her neck towards the couch, she glances between the two before settling on Light.]
I suppose this parcel is the catalyst for my clearing of the room?
