((ooc: aklsndl she's a student at the high school, right? Mind if Canas happens to be one of her teachers? 8D))

[He's walking by, books in his arms, when he notes her frantic searching.]

Is everything all right?

[resonancy]

[ooc; yes! and sure thing! ... is he Mr. Canas now.]

-- Ah.

[briefly pauses, if only to make herself seem less frantic. outwardly, at least.]

Oh, yeah! I'm just-- looking for something I, erm... left behind.

[aaaaaa.]

[scholastical]

[ooc: Fff, yes, I guess he is.]

Oh?

[He sets his stack of books on the table.]

Perhaps I shall be able to assist you, Maka. What are you searching for, exactly?

[resonancy]

A- ah, well, it...

[admitting she lost something this VITALLY IMPORTANT in front of a teacher? augh.]

It's my-- notebook with all my class notes in it.

[theignorantfool]

Edward is holding a dangerously tall pile of books when he hears the commotion - but curiosity and recognition overpower logic as he steps past a bookshelf to peer around the mountain of books in his arms with a quirked eyebrow.

Of course Maka would also be at the library. ".... What did you lose?"

He doesn't wait for a response, stepping towards a table to set the leaning stack of books down before it topples over completely, still watching her curiously.

[resonancy]

"Ed!"

The level of urgency in her voice was apparent, as was the gravity of the situation. Maka pivoted on her feet where she stood to face him, where seconds before she had been standing as high as her toes would allow her, skimming a higher up shelf. And then, in the next moment, Maka was suddenly next to him.

"Ed, have you seen my school notebook?" Maka asked, sounding desperate. "I left it right there--" She sharply pointed in the direction of a nearby table. "So it couldn't have gone far in the past ten minutes!"

[theignorantfool]

He tensed as she seemed to just appear beside him - holding both arms out to steady the pile of books before they fell to the floor. He turned, back to the stack of books as he tried to follow her frantic questioning.

"Don't worry," He started, putting his hands up in a 'calm down' gesture as he scanned the area. "Like you said, it couldn't get far. Notebooks don't have legs. Did you check under the table?" Ed glanced around at nearby tables, eyebrow quirked. "Maybe someone else picked it up, thinking it was their's. It's not the end of the world, we'll find it. ... Did you ask anyone else, yet?"

[resonancy]

'Not the end of the world'? Maka promptly decided that Edward simply had no idea what he was talking about, nor did he understand just how important this was.

"Just a few people," Maka answered, but not without giving Edward a narrowed look first. She knelt down to peek under the table as soon as it were suggested, though, and when there was nothing but the legs of chairs and carpet in sight, she gave a deflated sigh. "But none of them had seen it, either!"

Maka pushed herself up to her feet again, devastation written all over her features. "How could I have been so stupid?" she murmured aloud, eying Edward's pile of books. Nope. No notebook there, either. "How am I supposed to study now..."

[knightofchanges]

[apparently unaffected!Ace just likes to get lost in libraries, for he is, once again, lost in the library. but as he was wandering through an aisle of books he recognizes that voice!]

Maka? [peers from behind the shelf to see her looking for something]

[resonancy]

-- Hm?

[she looks up, spotting him, and then looks sheepish]

Oh-- uh, hey.

[knightofchanges]

[was already walking toward her but...that wasn't exactly the reaction he had been expecting. more like "Oh, it's you :|" or something like that. oh well, let's keep up the original pace and figure it out later]

Did you lose something?

[resonancy]

I...

[she sighs, rubs both hands through her hair, and something inside her promptly decides to fuck composure]

I left my notebook here, but when I came back for it, it was gone! Please tell me you've seen it!
