The library is generally a quiet place, noise filtering in from the mall notwithstanding. One could call its current business pretty slow, and particularly mundane.
At least, until the rift opened up in the middle of the store.
Out of the hole a girl, no older than seventeen, came jogging out, a duffel bag slung across her body and her hair tied up in a ponytail. She skids to a stop and stares around in shock, an eye twitching as she takes in the rows of books and the familiar yet completely foreign look of the people there. Her hooved legs slide out from underneath her, a hand pressed against her running top as she tries to calm herself down. "This... can't be happening."
The ears on top of her head fold back, showing that she doesn't believe herself. "...it's not real..."

It had been a quiet day for one blonde haired female. Her teammates and her roommate had sent her to the library to catch up on lessons and readings.
Upon looking up from her book, she noticed a portal. Poor sap... Time to play good cop for a bit... Besides that history is going to still be there later, she thought as she waved to the equine female.

The poor horse blinks blankly at the sight of another blonde waving at her, smiling sheepishly and waving in return before realizing what she's doing. She grabs her forearm to stop herself, pulling it into her lap. "Stop encouraging the hallucinations, Skye..."

Yang soon got to her feet and started to walk over to Skye. It was clear that the blonde wasn't a hallucination with the fact other people could see the blonde brawler just as well as the equine girl and the fact that there was a shadow on the ground for the blonde.
"You okay?" She asked softly.

The pony looks around, her breaths starting to get shallower. "I... I don't know. I was just going to school to see Sonny, then I'm suddenly here, I'm seeing a hairless version of one of my favorite characters, and now I'm actually talking to the hallucinations!" Hyperventilating, she reaches into her bag and pulls out a bottle of pills, fumbling them and eventually dropping them before she can even open it. Her eye starts twitching when she starts seeing bubbles everywhere. "...darn it, it's getting worse..."

"Yeah.... Portals do that..." Yang offered as she picked up the pill bottle and offered it back to her. "I can assure you that I'm not a hallucination though. You want to come sit with me while your medication kicks in? I'm at a table just a few feet from here."

She considered stating how a hallucination might say that, but thought better of it. Besides, if she really was seeing things, maybe Sonny would eventually find and help her. With a small sigh, she gets up and takes the bottle, nodding to the older girl. "...sure. I guess there's no harm in that..." She looks around at everyone before turning back to Yang, an eyebrow raised. "So... are you a monkey cosplaying as Yang Xiaolong? Because she's a vixen, and you kinda need more fur instead of less. Plus, you're missing the ears."

Yang blinked at the question. "IS her partner either a black panther or a black cat?" Yang replied. "And trust me there is a reason I'm asking." A fox? I guess it makes sense with the fire thing and I can be quite foxy on occassion... At least that's what Alex would tell me... she added mentally.
"But no. I'm not a monkey. I'm a human and oddly enough you do know my name."

Apparently not hearing that last part, Skye leans close, eyes wide. "Oh, no, that wouldn't work! She'd be just like everyone else, then, and her struggle would be nonexistent!" She points a finger at her chest. "No, Blake Belladonna is a mythical being, just like every other faunus is!" She looks up, frowning a bit. "I think she's a sphinx? Or was it a nekomata? Either way, I suppose she does look like a black cat... more mysterious than cute, though."

"What are Ruby and Weiss then?" Yang asked as the mental image of Blake as a sphinx popped into her mind. Blake would love to hear that. She is smart enough for the Sphinx role.

"Ruby is a corgi. Very adorable, very excitable." She taps her chin as she thinks. "...and I believe Weiss is a... bird of some sort. Maybe a raven?" The pony girl shrugs. "Some kind of attention-craving, preening bird. Makes it more impressive she can hold her sword, though."

Yang snickered before sighing. "That sounds about right. Probably some sort of albino peacock," Yang offered. "So I never caught your name but you clearly know mine."

"Probably not, since the flashy peacocks are male, and the girls, peahens, are kind of a dull brown." She shrugs, then the words catch up to her. "...wait, I do? Since when?"

"I'm a human version of Yang Xiaolong," Yang offered.

Skye blinks, then tilts her head to one side. "...what's a human, and where's your Ember Celica?"
