He walked up to the table and frowned a little. Book donation.. He certainly didn't have a problem with that, but he had already donated almost a dozen books right at the start of term. He sorta wished he had held on to one for the purpose of bringing it today. No matter.. he dug into his pockets and pulled out 8 shiny sickles, depositing them into the container. The sixth year then grabbed a nametag and wrote on it Ethan McCarthy (Mr. Darcy). He wasn't sure anyone would know just by looking.
Attaching the nametag to the front of his waistcoat, the sixth year ventured further inside. He looked around at all the people in costume, trying to figure out who they were and not sure if he recognized anyone.
Minerva was looking around. Wow so many people, this was fantastic that people cared this much about the wonderful, important, fantastic books that Hogwarts had and needed again. Seeing so many faces made her a little dizzy though, some she knew others she did not. Then she noticed some old Hogwart students. Was that Kurumi?? Hmmm Minerva would have to say hi to some, but she was distracted first...
As someone
very cute walked in and got his name tag. Minerva walked over to him,
"Hello.. I'm sorry, but do I know you?" She gave her boyfriend a fun little smile.
"I like your costume, was hoping to see you here." SPOILER!!: Minister, Sierra, Lafay

It was for himself, his wife, and their oldest daughter, and was of course written for more than the required donation for entering. "I would have donated what they needed," he half-complained, "but the fundraiser is nice, too. I'm guessing the candidates are out, ready to put on a political show." He smirked at this. Politics, he understood, although he thought it was humorous when he was simply watching and not in the midst of things.
Sierra Greingoth entered just behind her parents. She was old enough to know by know that they entered first, and then she entered quietly behind. Why it was so important that she attended this was beyond her. Wasn't it really just for the adults? Her father was paying for her donation anyway. She sighed and fidgeted with her blue dress. She felt silly in this "Alice in Wonderland" costume. It was so not her style.
As Minerva walked around watching all the people she noticed the Minster with Sierra and Professor Lafay. She felt more intimidated to speak with him here. Was it because Lafay was right there or because she really was just another kid now at Hogwarts. Taking a deep breath she decided to say hello anyone. Walking up to the small group she smiled,
"Hello Minster, professor, Sierra. Minister I saw you walk in and just wanted to thank you again for letting me speak with you at the BOG event this summer. It was very helpful. Also, I am very pleased to see you here and hope you enjoy yourself." SPOILER!!: TACKLES KEEFER

After paying his fee, the Magpies Keeper scanned the crowd. He spotted a very familiar back of a head. Is that...? Yes, it had to be. "Ella? Ella Bishop?!" And standing next to her... "Kurumi? TREYEN?!" He was suddenly VERY happy he'd decided to come.
As Minerva was making her way around she spotted someone that made her smile grow and she took off in his direction.
"Keefer!!!" She said louder then she should have and covered her mouth as her cheeks turned a bit pink. As she made her way towards him she
tackled hugged him.
"How are you? What have you been up to? How's quidditch?" She laughed a bit,
"Guess I shouldn't wait until I see you to find all this out, maybe I should start sending on owl once in awhile."
