Jacen had left his Divination book in the top of the North tower and had sprinted back up the stairs to retrieve it. He was fairly winded from the long run up the stairs so he took his time going back down the stairs. He was about halfway back down when he forgot to skip one of the notorious fake stairs that plagued Hogwarts. Luckily for him, he did not get completely into it before realizing what it was, but he was not so lucky as to keep his belongings on him.
Parchment went fluttering, quills went soaring, books when tumbling and his body went rolling. He rolled down a few stairs before he was able to stop and catch himself. And now, the task of attempting to collect all of his things, some of which had made their way quite far down the stairs.

Brendan was quite bored and he had decided to go for a walk during classes. He had said to one of the Professors that he wasn't feeling too good and he needed some freash air. So here he was walking around the castle 'getting some fresh air'.
He was walking up the Divination Tower's stairs, even though this wasn't a very good place to get 'fresh air' he still felt like walking up there anyway.
As he was walking, Brendan, stepped on something that was hard and it lifted him off the stair a little bit. He looked down and saw it was a book. Puzzled, Brendan picked it up and hurried up the stairs a little bit more to see if something was happening. As he passed he found more quills and parchmeant scattered all over the place. He picked them up and continued on.
To his suprise he found a Ravenclaw boy sitting on one of the steps, surrounded in parchment and books.
"Are you alright?" He asked, concerned.

"...bloody stairs...fix those...stupid..." He was in the midst of a mumbling rant when he saw a Gryffindor boy walking briskly up the stairs carrying what he presumed to be his fallen belongings. "Oi, thanks alot!" He said to the boy, seeing that the items he carried were indeed Jacen's, "Yeah, I'm fine. Ruddy fake stairs get me everytime. I have a habit of forgetting to pay attention, and it often leads to my downfall...literally." He smiled a bit at his weak joke.
He continued to collect his stuff but continued to talk (like usual), "Name's Jacen, friends usually call me Jay. I think I've seen you around the hallways before, but I don't think we've actually met."

Brendan handed back Jacen's belongings and smiled. He felt good helping him.
"It's fine. I'm sure you would of done the same, if it was me in your situation of course. I'm Brendan and I think I have seen you around aswell." He said affably.
He picked up a bit of parchment he was standing on and handed it back to him. It was a littl stuff in the Tower but nothing like it was in the summer. Luckily Brendan had given up Divination. He had always hated the subject. Thought everything coming out of the Professor's mouth was a whole lot of you know what.
(OOC: Isn't your name Jacen?)

((OOC: Blast...I changed it. Thanks. I knew that was going to happen eventually.))
"I really wish that I didn't have to come up to this bloody tower. It's so...pungent up here. And Divination is a crock anyways." After saying this, he promptly looked around to make sure no one but Brendan and himself had heard it. Although he didn't like Divination, he surely didn't want to have the professor dislike him or recieve a bad grade.
Jacen thought about it and said, "Aren't you supposed to be in class or something now? I have a free period, but most people don't." He said with a chuckle. Jacen was 90% sure that Brendan was just skipping class, but he was thankful because otherwise it would have taken forever to collect all of his things.

Brendan laughed a little at Jacen's remark on Divination.
"Don't worry I think the same as you do. Divination, what a load of codswallop." He smiled, reminiscing about the time he had got four detentions in a row in Divination.
He was looking through the crystal ball and the teacher asked him what he saw in it. Brendan of course said an ugly, toad faced, loony. Not realizing it was the teacher, but he found out soon enough who it was. At least he made the whole class roar with laughter, not so much the teacher though.
"Yeah, I'm getting some 'fresh air', He said sarcastically, " I fooled the Professor into letting me go out side and get some fresh air because I felt sick, which is not true of course."
(OOC: That's ok. It's easy done.)

Jacen could never bring himself to skip class. For one, it was against the rules and he did not enjoy being out of line. It was straight & narrow for Jacen V. Ray. Secondly, he happened to enjoy most classes, with the exception of Divination and History of Magic. Jacen, however, didn't want to seem like too much of a dork, so he played along with Brendan. "Ah yes! That's foolproof...got me out of many a Charms class. Never been a big fan of Charms myself." He wasn't sure how convincing it had been, but it would have to do.

Brendan didn't quite believe Jacen, but he played along anyway.
"Yeah, Charms is ok I s'pose. Some of the Charms can come in handy.... So what are you doing with your free period?" He asked curiously.
he started to walk down the stairs, hoping Jacen would follow him.
