If you wander into the library during the festival, you'll come across, you guessed it, yet another booth! The rather new (And small, might I add) Literary Club decided to put together a booth to sell drinks to any other bookworms like them (And perhaps recruit a few new members *Coughshorthandedclubcough*). Kitama is the leader of the Literary Club and rather young and high spiritted and ever friendly. His brother Koutama is rather silent and barely speaks any words at all, usually getting to the point immediately.
The booth itself is rather crazilly decorated with cardboard and construction paper cut-outs of teacups, coffee mugs, and brown cups with whipped cream shaped white paper on top to signify an iced mocha or something of that sort. The base color is blue, and the lettering that lets people know what's being sold is in red. Koutama occupies the booth, showing a rather rare ticked off look as he is forced to make and serve different drinks for people he doesn't even know. Surrounding him are coolers and pots on propane stoves to keep cold ice and warm water at an easy reach. There's also an ice shredder to make any frosty-styled drink if one would want.
Kitama is found nowhere near the booth, leaving his brother to do all the work for thirsty people while he goes about socializing and trying to find members for the club. He had really hoped to read the whole day and leave everything to his brother, but, as the leader, he's stuck with recruitment.
Members:
Kitama Takedahashi (Leader; Owned by me) Koutama Takedahashi (Co-founder, Vice Leader; Also owned by me)

Arianna had made her way into the library for a brief escape of having to look after her brother. She usually spent her time outside, but a chance to just sit down and enjoy a book everyonce in a while. She was wearing a grey skirt that went past her knees, with knee high socks of black and grey stripes hiding her legs completely from view. She had some black converse on her feet. Her shirt was sleeveless, midriff, and also a pale grey color, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. Holding true to the rest of her outfit, her hair and eyes were both also shades of grey.
She was surprised to see a little booth set up inside the library. She stared at it silently for a second or two before slowly deciding to figure out what was going on. So she walked over almost silently, staring at the booth. Through her eyes, everything was black and white. She couldn't see the red lettering. It just looked like a lightly dark shade of grey to her. She blinked once, then stared at the male. "Excuse me..." she murmured, her voice soft and whispery, the first time she'd spoken in days. "What is this?" She certainly hadn't paid enough attention to realize something special was going on.

Risa, Sarah and Yumi Myers were all out today, though only one of them was really exicted about it. Risa wore a small black simple tank-top that showed off her midriff but was hidden behind a large puffy black jacket, even though it was summer. She wore a pair of baggy blue jeans and converse shoes as well, her hair pulled into a tight ponytail and blowing bubbles from her gum. She particulary didn't want to be here, and would rather be out playing one her favorite sports, but it was hard...to resist Sarah's inoccent nature. Risa tugged lightly on her black glasses, and tucked some of her tangerine colored hair out of the way as she saw the book club...or something. Sarah was as usual in a professional buisness suit, actually being able to pull of the look of about twenty while her sisters just looked their age. She didn't do much with her outfit, but wore a stripped black and white shirt underneth her suit and a pair of clean shoes, her big brown eyes shinning with happiness as she walked between her two sisters. The third Myers triplet wasn't annoyed or happy...or really anything, she looked sort of dead almost. She wore a simple white zip-up short-sleeve sweater and a red skirt with plain shoes and matching brown/red glasses. Yumi would rather be home reading a book...alone, but Sarah had at least tried half way and took her to the Literary Club for the current time. Risa was eyeing the girl who had also come in, finding her really intresting to look at, and yet almost too good to touch. Sarah walked up to the main area as well, standing next to the girl and smiling polietly "Yes, please explain, if it's not too much trouble" she said happily.

Yuki, clothed in her witch costume, wandered through the hallways, obviously searching for something. When she came across the library, she stepped in and looked around from under her large black hat. Her feet silently stepped across the floor as she moved quickly towards a bookshelf, picking up a random sci-fi novel. Yuki walked over to a seat slightly far from the other people and looked at them with a blank stare, and then looked down at her book. She went to adjust her glasses, forgetting that she hadnt restored them back at North High.
It must have been a weird sight. A girl with short grey hair wearing a sailor fuku and a witch hat + black cape. She flipped pages quite quickly, finishing the book surprisingly fast. Yuki stood and walked back to the same bookshelf, picking up another book of the same genre. The humanoid interface walked back to her seat and began to read the new book.

(Finally! All the pawns are in place! *Diabolical look*)
Kouta just looked back at the four girls, unblinking eyes just staring right into them from behind his glasses. Just then, a voice was heard, though it wasn't Kouta who spoke. "Hey there everyone! I guess I really shouldn't have left him there..." Kit, a young boy with brown hair that was rather messy this evening started walking towards the booth, pushing his glasses up, back to their rightful spot in front of his chocolate coloured eyes. "That's my brother Kouta, and he doesn't really speak too much... I kinda screwed up and thought that people would only want to buy drinks from him and not ask anything..." He laughed a little nervously. He had a very obvious bookwormy look to him, dressed in a black long sleeved shirt and pants, carrying a stack of around a dozen books with him.
Kouta, on the other hand, had a rather wild look despite his own bookwrom personality. Of course, he wasn't as open as his brother either. He was dressed in a red shirt with no sleeves and a black dragon design on the chest and blue jeans that were a bit tattered. From his neck dangled a large canine tooth on a necklace from some animal. And not only that, but he had striking silver-white hair that did not look human at all. As his brother walked over, it was whispered that he could just relax the rest of the day and Kit would deal with everything else.
"See ya around Kou!" Kit waved off cheerily to his brother. "Alright, well, I guess I'm the founder of the Literary Club for Ria High. I started this up with Kou hoping to meet other students who had the same interest as me and everything... So yeah! Anyone wanna join up?" He asked, smile never leaving his face once.
Kouta, who had been sent off was rather happy, though his serious features didn't betray it. He walked deep into the most secluded parts of the library and dug around for some epic poems, finding Beowulf and The Oddyssey among many other titles. He soon just sat down on the library floor and opened up The Oddyssey, starting to read it, happy to be able to just sit in the back of the library with no company but the shelves and shelves of books.
*Call it long, call it short, but it could be better due to my delirious state at the moment*

Arianna looked up when the others arrived, staring at the three girls in stone-faced silence, not the slightest hint of an expression on her face. She rarely blinked either... Her eyes found the other girl who'd come in and seperated herself from the rest, and then to the male who'd been behind the booth but had left. She watched him wander off and then turned back to the one who was speaking. I wish my brother was that calm... she thought with a small sigh. But then again, if he wasn't so crazy, she wouldn't be here and would instead be back in her home. Not that she particularly minded the forest, but this place was rather interesting as well.
She stared at Kit quietly, realizing he'd just asked the group in general if any of them wished to join. She hesitated, glancing around at all the books. What would a literary club do? Simply read? She didn't mind that, but... She stared towards the others within sight for a second, then shook her head. "Crowded.." she murmured. She also didn't know how long she'd be here. It wouldn't do to become comitted to something. But she then tapped one of the cut-outs attached to the booth. It was the cup with the paper whip cream on top. "I'd like one of these, I think.." she continued softly, not really knowing what it was, but curious to find out. Hopefully since they were being sold in the library, no one would mind if she took one with her when she found a nice deserted corner to sit down and read in.

"Yumi will join!" Sarah boasted proudly, appearently answering for her sister. Yumi glanced up at Sarah for a moment, a blank look across her face, her eyes slightly wider than normal by a bit, but she just looked back down at the floor and nodded her head. Risa frowned lightly, not really liking how eaislier her other sister agreed to people's requests. Though it probably was better to get Yumi out of the house sometimes, the girl was pretty pale really, while at least Risa had a slight tan from being outside so much. Sarah grinned up Kit, seemingly though Risa and Yumi realized that the two were kind of like just because of how their personalities were friendly. She calmly took the sign up sheet though and added in Yumi Myers in small print before handing it back to him. "Well my other sister and I won't be joining..." she said softly, but she had turned to look at the other girl that had just ordered a drink, half talking to her in hopes of the girl joining the club since there were not going to be too many members really. Risa tapped her finger to the most obvious drink filled with caffinee and sugar that was to be sold there and yawned as she looked up at the guy who was appearently the owner of this area or something. "I'll have that as well" she said simply and reached her hand out to Sarah for money who frowned lightly but nodded her head as she gave a bit and then wondered back away from the main area to look for books, Yumi also came but they went into different sections as Sarah was immdately facinated by the love-romance half and Yumi was looking up how to learn Japanese.

Yuki looked up at the other people again, and then back down at the book, which she was almost finished with. Her hat fell forward and completely covered her face from other people, giving her a strange, mysterious look. When she finished the book, Yuki stood and grabbed another one from the shelf but instead walked over to where Kouta was sitting.
"Do you mind if I sit over here?" Yuki asked in her whispery, soft voice. She pushed her hat up a bit, revealing her blank, yellow-brown eyes. She stared at the boy for a moment. Before he had a chance to respond, she was already walking to a seat pretty much across from Kouta's spot on the floor, her hands gripping the new book to her petite chest.
*[That took a long time, and it was so short XDDD]*

Kit watched as the young lady in all the grey colors shook her head and mumbled that it was too crowded. He felt a bit disheartened because it was only he and his brother in the club so far. When he heard her say that she wanted something and saw her pointing at the iced mocha decoration on the booth. "Okay then, one iced mocha coming up then!" He said then heard one of the three sisters say that one of her sisters would join. When he saw which girl responded to her name and read the form that was filled out for her, he simply nodded with a smile and approved. "Alright then, make that two iced mochas!" He said happily, reaching around for all the supplies needed and getting to work quickly, making the drink then adding a little chocolate syrup to sweeten it a bit more before dropping the cubes of ice in them and topping them with the whipped cream. He popped a straw into the two drinks and slid them towards the girls. "I'd say... Two dollars is enough for a drink like this since I'm not really a professional?" He suggested on the pay. What a hare-brained move, he hadn't even drawn up a price list.
Kouta, who had been sitting on the floor in the back of the library adjusted his glasses slightly as he heard the girl approaching his area. Then her voice was heard, a soft whisper on the wind, as she asked if he minded her sitting nearby. He looked up and his serious grey eyes locked onto her's as she looked at him. The moment she started moving towards her spot, he opened his mouth and spoke in a tone much like her's, only a bit more deep and masculine. "Yeah, go ahead... Just don't make a nuisance of yourself..." He answered before his head dropped and he looked back into his book, reading more.

Arianna blinked, looking towards the girl who'd ordered the same drink she had. But her expression remained blank, no real sign of emotion visible. She just waited patiently by the booth, gaze occassionally wandering towards the surrounding books. There were so many... She was kind of curious as to how elves were dipicted in these human stories. She hadn't done much reading yet. But she turned once more towards the brother behind the booth, Kit, and glanced down to the cup. Then she reached into a pocket and withdrew a small wallet, which she removed two dollars from. She handed the money to Kit and then picked up the drink afterwards, eying it curiously and then licking the whip cream. Then her lips found the straw and she took a small sip, tasting it, and drank a little more upon deciding it was good. Her eyes had slid thoughtfully to the sign-up sheet and she began wondering if she should join. It was the last place her brother would enter, a library, so it'd offer a small break from the duty of watching him, which she should be doing right now. But she figured a few hours would be okay. If he managed to kill himself in that amount of time, he deserved it. She glanced up at Kit next, staring for a moment before speaking in her faint voice. "What exactly does the literary club do..?"
