Melbourne grinned over to Tory when he explained which of his cousins was a Dj. “That is awesome!” Mel grinned over to him “that is pretty awesome…my brother Finn used to be a chaser for the Australian Nationals and well…my brother Phil works as one of the trainers” she admitted with a giant grin.

“that is so cool!” she grinned and then heard him bring up the game. “Really? That is so cool” she beamed over to him and then heard what Professor Burbage’s ghost said. “whaaaat? You died here?” Mel asked and blinked at her for a bit.

“M-m…Professor Burgage? I’m sorry you died” she blurted out it was meant to be nice…but well, lets be real. “have you ever Played Sardines?...its like hide-and-seek where one person hides and then everyone tries to find them and hide where the hiding person is” Mel informed and grinned at the ghost. “do you want to join us?” She asked excitedly.

Oh but ghostly gossip.... He don’t mind getting wind of that nope "You mean Sir Nick is Ms Rowena's boyfriend?" Jumping the ship already? Well thats 11-yr old logic for yah. "But waitaminute.... Didn’t that Mr Baron guy from Slytherin her boyfriend or something?" clearly he wasn’t told much about Hogwarts history by daddy, but hey he is trying to catch up yeah? Even if he makes things up to fill those enormous gaping plotholes.

So she was Marion Burbage, former Astronomy Professor. Who died here. Whut? Tenacius had a quick glance around the area of the Astronomy Tower and was suddenly curious about how this spectre died. Can he ask he about that? Better yet, should he ask her about that? But just as he was about to open his big mouth she went off on Tory.

Apparently even ghosts still get conscious about their age. Even when they will remain that way because they're dead. Who knew eh?

But oh oh oh "Sardines!" he bounced excitedly. Approve this idea he does. "Where do you guys wanna play?" He looked around this garden area and wondered, is there even a good place to hide around here?

Ghost lady is not happy. "I'm sorry Mrs Marion I thought since you were... you know..." Dead. "that well, you'd be like a cloud." all floaty and stuff. "YOU DIED HERE?" that was both kinda frightening, and totally awesome. "How did you Die? Were you killed so someone could teach the class?" That would be an cool story to tell everyone. The poor girl would be quite upset when she found out later her adoptive sister could have told her all about this.

SARDINES!! "Ohhhhhhh, thats a great idea! We could play it here, if you think there is enough hiding places here." she said to Ace. "And who's gonna be It?" You know, when they figured out where they were gonna play.

Oh goodness GRACIOUS she had given the poor dears a fright by being so candid with them. Oopsies.

"I did I did I most CEEEEEEEERTAINLY did," she affirmed. "It all happened soooooOOOoooo fast really. I was standing right over there teaching about the Aurora Borealis when I was devoured by a giant Umbrella Vinora plant. It had been a gift to dear Annie you see and unbeknownst to her the plant had been taken pooooooOOOOOOOooossession by a vengeful spirit."

She paused for a moment to allow all this to sink in.

"BUT, all water under the bridge now, my darlings. All water under the bridge."

Nothing to be done about it now.

Her attention then turned towards the young dear inquiring further about Sir Nicholas. "Oh oh oh NOOOOOOOOOOOO," he clucked. "Not yet, my dear. I just overheard him the other day reciting a bit of poetry in her name." She wiggled in place a bit. "Oh I doubt that my dear. He IS the reason darling Helena is here at all, you see."

But now they were all going on about this sardine business again and Marion could do nothing but float where she was and listen.

"SoooOOOOOOOOOOOo, this game has nothing to do with actual sardines then?" she questioned.
