Emmeline was nervous as a cat. She knew most of the people in the room from Hogwarts, though she was friends with any of them. Emmeline was never popular enough at Hogwarts to garner a wave from James or Sirius.

She nearly jumped out of her chair when someone spoke to her. She smile and gave his hand a firm shake. "Yes, Emmeline Vance. Nice to meet you Gideon." She smiled. At least someone was speaking to her. Though she wasn't sure if she liked it. Sometimes she liked blending in with the background.

She took a sip of tea as Dumbledore started the meeting. This was what she had come for and she was excited to get started. She gave Gideon a smile to let him know that they could talk after the meeting. If he still wanted to speak with her.
