Connor watched, did he vanish? Then he was back again. The Gryffindor tilted his head, a slightly curious look on his face. He was always curious about something wasn't he? "Would it be too personal for me to ask why you decided to become a ghost, Sir Nicholas?" He had a thirst for knowledge and knowing why people did what they did. "I can only imagine how that must feel." Connor was always hungry, so no food and watching others eat? Merlin!
"See to it that you do not. I do not fancy that your Head of House would appreciate hearing such grave tidings," Sir Nicholas instructed. He too was joking, although it was perhaps a bit difficult to read sarcasm coming from the spirit. "Fireplace could be a bit hazardous as well." That time his sarcastic tone was a bit more obvious.

"Are you aware of just how a witch or wizard becomes a ghost, Mister Jones? Only those witches and wizards who fear death are likely to become ghosts." Which had answered your question, young man, in a rather round about and impersonal fashion. "Which is precisely why I was wondering if perhaps I could ask of you a favor." The ghost eagerly glided towards the Gryffindor with toothy smile.
