"It looks like the plant hasn’t been through here but let’s spread out and check the rest of the aisles anyway for traces." The stone that had formed in his stomach was slowly unknotting itself as it seemed that just maybe the plant had left the library untouched this time.
Turning around to go check some other bookshelves Leo smiled at Gemma and Oakey as they joined the group. "We are looking for clues as to where the plant went after it nabbed Professor Burbage from the Astronomy Tower." He explained. "Oakey, Laura and Katrina keep your wands at the ready just in case. Check the nearest shelves and see if you can find anything plant like vines or leaves on the shelves or books." Leo motioned.
Walking over to where Medea was standing Leo looked down the same aisle and said quietly. "I think if the plant was here it has left for more populated areas." Quote:

She stuck the book under her arm and focused on what he had mentioned....she looked intensively for the leaves and vines hinted and followed her glance to where Leo and Medea were at. She walked over slowly to overhear their brief discussion..."Yes, I don't see anything else left in here from the plant...but I think we should focus on finding information about that brooch..." she said anxiously. More populated area.
"Like the great hall?" She turned her gaze to Leo. Was it ever decided if a professor was staying with the students or if they would be going back to their common rooms now that they were open? She glanced towards Gemma momentarily as she suggested they help with finding information about the brooch, eyebrows knitted together. There had been much commotion about finding the Headmistress's brooch, but what did it have to do with the plant?
Apparently nothing?
Medea slowly stepped her way down the aisle she was closest to, taking note of each book title while listening to all the information being gathered at the present moment. Runes, cats, ghosts...Isfret. Medea paused where she was and rubbed the bridge of her nose. This was enough of this Egyptian magic or entities or whatever it was for one day. Quote:

Nobody really knew all the answers, but the professors stood a better chance of figuring things out. "Okay," Sierra said, nodding in response to what the Muggle Studies professor said. "I guess we'll just have to...go back to square one." She looked at the books. She just really didn't want to read all of them.
Before she could really get started on anything else, Louisa chimed in. Sierra sort of smirked at how hesitant the Head Girl was in offering up her cat for this army they were discussing. Then she followed that by offering her help in looking through the books. Those books were haunting Sierra! She was just going to have to help read them, and that was all there was to that. Sighing, she said, "I can help look through them, as well..."
Unless... "Or there's that one spell we learned in Arithmancy class," she said, perking up. "Professor Hadley's been teaching us about cursed objects all term. There's this spell we use, Arithmos Revelio, to tell if an object is cursed or not. If it is, a series of numbers will come up. Maybe if that's the case, the numbers will tell us something." It was worth a shot, at least. Locked common rooms. Trapped ghosts. Hmmm...
Numbers and runes weren't in her line of specialties, though were similar to hieroglyphics in a sense. Something that she WAS familiar with. "There's a start." she commented, pulling over a chair from a nearby table and sitting down, picking up one of the stacked books. "Though I vould stop touching the brooch in case it truly is cursed."
Ahem, just... no touchy. |
