"Hello, forgive me that your name slipped my old head. How can I help... you?" He glanced again at the item at her feet.

She was looking around the waiting area, admiring the bright cheeriness of it all when the professor came over to speak with her. She stood and bowed her head at him slightly in greeting. "Hi! Oh, that's all right, I know you have a lot of students," she said with a smile. "I'm Eliza Dawnsel, sir." But she did hope that he'd remember her name after this year at least, since she planned to really put a lot of energy into his class. She thought ancient runes and languages of old were incredibly interesting. She might even pursue them after Hogwarts, but that was a long ways off yet. "And I was wondering if you needed anything in your office or your waiting area to be cleaned. You see, we've been given these muggle vacuums by Professor Flamsteed, and I thought that maybe you'd be awfully busy and with the house elves being gone, maybe you hadn't had the chance to tidy up yet." She was rambling a bit, but she wanted him to know the whole story. It would be odd if he got it into his head that she just walked around school with a muggle contraption all the time. She looked around her again and then back to him, "Not that it looks like anything here is dirty though, Professor. But maybe I could check under the sofas for you? I know the dust bunnies like to hide there sometimes." And yes, she did still feel that using a cleaning spell would be more efficient, but that's not what their Astronomy teacher had wanted them to learn how to do, so she would try to use the vacuum first and only the spells later as a last resort.
