[@Jay Kalton] Arya picked herself up, trying to compose herself after the surprise hug. "My name is Arya, Arya Lightwood. And he..." she gestured at Jacob, who raised a hand, still grinning at Arya "is my twin brother, Jacob. We're from Polaris. We used to live in Astra but..."she halted, choking back a sudden spurt of emotion. Jacob's grin dissapeared and his face vanished behind his book again. "Well, stuff happened. We prefer not to talk about it." She finished, looking to the side, her hand gripping her side. "How about you? I'm guessing this is your first year, judging as we've never seen you before." Meanwhile, Jacob watched Drew quietly, taking in her aura. [i]"She doesn't look to be threatening, despite being so tall."[/i] He thought to himself. [i]"In fact, her aura looks similar to Arya's..."[/i] He was probably intruding on Drew's privacy by examining her aura, but it had become habit to him after his and Arya's years of wandering. It had saved them from a lot of trouble, and from trusting the wrong people.
