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." Ethan was watching everyone as they walked in or walked around, trying to figure out the different costumes.. as well as try to recognize someone he might know. Seemed like there was quite a few alumni here and they were unfamiliar. He was just about to head in towards the auction area when he caught sight of someone walking towards him.
Chuckling as she spoke, Ethan tilted his head to take in her appearance. "Min.. is that you?" Of course it was.. just took him a second to recognize her. "Thanks," he said with a grin. "I like yours too.. Who's your character? I'm not sure I'm familiar with her.." Cute though. SPOILER!!: Nia! Quote:

It'd been six years since she'd last hidden herself away in here, studying away. It had been one of her favourite places, after the Ravenclaw Common Room and the Quidditch Pitch. With a smile, she deposited two books on the front desk - two that she'd found invaluable during her studies: A Definitive Guide to Charms, and Advanced Transfiguration. Hopefully future Ravenclaws would get as much use from them as she had during her time here.
Her arms now free, Nia slipped her hand into Finn's and gave it a quick squeeze. Her other hand swished her skirt lightly. It wasn't often that Nia dressed up, but she was glad she'd talked Finn into their combined outfit. She was loving the fifties look - especially the sunglasses, and skirt that made her just want to spin round to see it float out. And, of course, Finn was looking very dapper in his pinstriped suit. He should get dressed up like that more often, and not just for press conferences. A blissful smile played on her lips as her gaze fell on him.
"It's all about the long swishy jacket, and the specs really," she replied to his comment with a wink. Oh, and that reminded her... "I brought you a prop," she said, a grin creeping across her face excitedly. Dropping her skirt swishing, she reached into her bad, and pulled out a model sonic screwdriver. "I think I managed to redo the electronics so it'd work here..." In case he wanted to have the light and sound effects too.
She glanced around the room with Finn, and laughed. "People I know, or characters I know?" Of the former, there didn't seem to be many...of the latter, a fair few. "Did Treyen or Ellie mention if they were coming?" Mariel had been a bit hesitant to step back into the corridors of Hogwarts. It had been a number of years since she graced the castle with her presence and she was certain she'd feel out of place in a school full of new people. But when she heard of the fundraiser to help rebuild one of her favorite spots at school, she knew she had to go. Shaking off the slight apprehension, the brunette stepped into the library dressed as one of her favorite childhood literary figures, Mary Poppins.
Not willing to spare any of her own books, Mariel deposited the galleons at the table and took a cursory glance around the room. Quite a few people there already.. and she wasn't really surprised to not see anyone that she recognized.. though she had sort of hoped deep down that one of her old school friends might have made an appearance. She spotted her nephew and his girlfriend, and gave them a nod and smile as she walked past, looking for someone her own age to mingle with. They had their own friends anyway.
The young woman started to walk into the auction area when her green eyes landed on a head of blonde hair that was all at once very familiar. Was it..? Yes, she thought, as she slowly grinned. She'd recognize that shock of blonde anywhere. "Nia?" she called to the other woman as she slightly pulled up on her swishy skirt to rush over to her. "Nia Newtington! Is that really you?"
