    A thin cloth cloak was all that protected emmaline. She was sitting in the great hall, at the gryfindor table where she had sat all 16 years she was there.. stareing up at the ceiling that she hadn't seen for many years. A stack of book was on the table next to her. Some old books she had borrowed and a few she was giving to the library including a copy of "qudditch thro the ages".

    "place hasn't changed much.. i can still feel the warmth and love here, i really wish i hadn't made the choices i did... i'd have graduated here." she said taking off her hood. She only hoped that someone was here that she'd remember. probably not tho. it'd been a while since she was there..

    Violet wore her usual grey-blue dress with a minimum amount of frills and bows, just as she did every school day. As the librarian, she was required to wear something professional. To her, professional meant blending into the dark stone walls of Hogwarts while she wasn't in the library. At least that way, she couldn't cause any trouble nor be brought into it. Hardly anyone noticed her, and that was how she liked it.

    As she entered the Great Hall, she spotted a woman who looked too old to be a student at the Gryffindor table. She was poorly dressed and it was very clear to Violet that the woman did not often go to Hogwarts. With a polite smile, Violet approached her, "Excuse me miss, can I help you?"

    "Ms. O!!!" Emmaline said with surprise as she turned to see who was there. "it's me! Emmaline Aberthy! i used to put droobles best blowing gum in all the books in my first year? you practically hated me in first year, made me promise to 'not put gum in any of my books!'" Emmaline said smiling. She had grown up a little bit since first year, and she did stop with the gum in the books after her rotten cousins had put gum in her hair.

    "I believe i have a few... Overdue books to return, and i found some old books of mine that may be of some use to the students." She said with a slight wince. Overdue was an understatement, Emmaline had been kicked out of Hogwarts and never had the chance to return said books. "it's good to see a firmilar face at last. I miss the old school... got any room for an assistant to help you out?" she said with a smile. Emmaline really would have preferred to be working anywhere but as a nanny for rich people.

    The woman's response took Violet aback. She had even stepped back, quite stunned by the reaction. She did not recognize the woman, nor did she know at all what she was talking about. Did she truly look as if she would have been the librarian back then? Had her twenty-one year old self had some wrinkles added to her pale and freckled skin? Or perhaps this woman was the loony who had escaped! Violet took another step away from her, suddenly cautious.



    "I... I can take the books if you have them now, since I am the librarian... or - or you could always send them via owl," She told her nervously, "I'm afraid that I am not who you think however... I've only acquired this position at the start of the new year." Violet had a rather active imagination. It could possibly have been from reading so many books - but she had quite decided that this quite possibly was the loony who had escaped from the hospital. Violet tried not to be obvious about her suspicions, as the paper had claimed her to be quite dangerous - plus she had killed a man! The librarian began to tremble and slipped her left hand in the pocket of her dress nonchalantly, just in case she might need her wand.
