Welcome to Gaia! ::

Avian had one whole desk filled with books and parchment one Saturday afternoon. It was probably around 4 pm but he was already tired, must be because he skipped breakfast... or lunch. He couldn't tell which, he didn't know if he was starting to lose track of time as he had a lot of things in his mind. He had to pass all of these OWLs to remind his father that even if he passed these subjects with flying colors, he was still going to tell him that it was useless anyway and would want to be a rock star... Not that he told him that before. He sighed really deeply and he buried his face with his arms, shaking his hand. He was just so tired, he wanted to just leave the house and maybe travel to America or something, but he wasn't sure how to do that.

Avian blinked when someone just told him that he could use a break, well, of course he knew that the voice was Grace's. Turning to her and adjusting his red glasses, he blinked again and greeted abit tiredly, "Hello, Grace, how'd you do? And um..." He stared at his book about Ghosts and Ghouls before closing the book with a seemingly sharp shut. It was weird too, wasn't she the type to just study and study in the library? Avian could not help it but he just found it really funny, "Yeah, I could use some, and you should too," He said jokingly, "I mean, as far as I know, your NEWTs starts not until next year,"

His grey eyes blinked behind his spectacles when Grace was meaning to ask him something, he was half-tempted to frown because he thought that she might be asking him again if he was okay. He was okay. Definitely fine. Even if he wasn't, he wouldn't go tell her, either. But, for her sake, he tried to control his facial expressions. "Go ahead and ask?" He said with raised eyebrows, still assuming that she might be getting him to talk about his own problems. That assumption was shattered though when it turned out that she was literally asking him out on a date, and at one point he forgot his drowsiness for a few minutes. Eyes went wide, Avian felt like his face was burning and it didn't make sense to him because for Heaven's bloody sake, it's nearly winter. "I... He stammered, as he seemed to lost his focus to formulate his thoughts, so he cleared his throat, "I-- Sure, I-I would love to. Where and when?" Sheesh, he never felt this flustered before, not even during the time when he and Grace when on a Valentine's Auction date.

Avian shrugged and turned his chair facing her. He saw himself as one of those unlikely Ravenclaws, sure he could be clever if he felt like it but he was more musically intelligent than academically. Besides, he's a Lovette-- a family of prissy Ravenclaws, he was probably bound to have anything to do with brains. While his Uncle Kery's family was kind of smart as well, they were much fun to be with than Avian's own parents... Even if Gypsy has her obnoxious taste of the arts but he'll just respect her for that. He could not help but smirk and he replied jokingly, "Well, I can't blame you. We're Ravenclaws, I think it's bound to happen to all of us," But okay, to be fair, Nike was pretty much like that too... Except nowadays she has her own plate to deal with people more than her own plans, much to his surprise.

Avian could not help but laugh when Grace admitted that she hadn't thought of that far ahead, but well to be fair he didn't think ahead about their Auction Date either, so both of them were even; He was just a tiny thirteen-year old back then. With her energetic proposal that the place would take place in Hogsmeade in a Cafe, he could not help but smile before answer, "Sure thing, I'll be looking forward for it," Him hanging out with Grace was much better than dreading of having to hang out with that bloody Slytherin fiancee named Sera Avery, she was a bore for him and it was already bad enough. But then, his father has his really terrible taste of women, no wonder why he didn't get a date as awesome as Avian's during his school life.
