Rowena was pleased to find the castle in.. decent shape. From her portrait, she too had seen it decline after everyone abandoned the castle for a year. She wondered if anyone would ever return. She did enjoy solitude, but it had been quite boring.

When a student finally appeared in the hall, Rowena didn't pay too much attention to them... until they called her the Grey Lady, a name she knew had been given to her daughter, the Ravenclaw ghost. Rowena paused her walk and gave the child a good look, not nearly offended, but mostly curious. She supposed staying locked in a frame might make one look like a ghost, too.

"Have you seen her?" Rowena asked calmly. The Grey Lady? Perhaps it was time they had a chat.

And that was when another student appeared in the hallway. He appeared to be wandering rather aimlessly, as if he didn't have any studying to attend to. Quite wrong, she was sure.

Miss?

He called her Miss. Did no one know who she was? Did no one READ their textbooks?

Rowena had half a mind to scold them and send them to their common rooms to study. But that was when yet another aimless wanderer came about. Merlin's Beard, did no one care about their grades?! Well, at least this student knew who she was! Someone had done her reading. But it was quite preposterous that she thought that one of the other children had conjured her up.

Rowena scoffed. "Please. You think one of them has the ability to bring me out of my portrait?" Truth be told, Rowena wasn't sure how she got out anyway, but if anyone was going to be given credit for the magic at hand, it would be her.

"Don't you all have studying to do? Hmm? Quit lollygagging." And then she waved her hand at them to shoo them away. Perhaps she needed to have a word with the Headmaster about the manners of his students. AND their clear lack of desire to educate themselves.
