She made a mental note to offer her compliments to the house elves. They knew how to treat them well.

Hmmm? The lady talking to everyone? Sophie had to stop and pause, then chewed slowly and swallowed as she processed the previous night's happenings - who had been a lady at the table? Tanner had been there, and Murdoch, too, but... was there... someone else...?

Oh. Right. Soph remembered how Ariel had completely shied away from the Grey Lady, which had NOT made the house ghost happy at all. Hahahaha. "No, no, she's around, but not super actively - that's the Grey Lady, Helena Ravenclaw. She's the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw. Our house ghost, obviously. She's awful. The first time she ever met me when I was a first year, she told me I had bad posture when I don't." So rude. "And she always gets on my case about not being lady-like enough. Why should I be lady-like? Why do I have to conform to what SHE thinks I should be like? Why can't I just be myself, y'know? She's so bossy. Guess that's all y'can really do when you're a ghost. Must be boring and y'gotta find stuff to keep you entertained and give y'purpose."

After a moment, Sophie took a quick glance around the Great Hall to make sure the transparent woman wasn't around or coming their way. Eh hem. "I avoid her as much as I can. S'best to do that, I'd say."

Pen hovering over her notebook, Ariel's gaze was fixed on Sophie. She talked A LOT. So much that it was almost hard to keep up, to absorb and process all the information. Yet, she was very informational, which was seen as an asset to the new girl.

So the lady from last night was, in fact, a ghost. Who although contradicted the stories Ariel was more familiar with, still wasn't a very nice ghost...person...ghost. But that she was Rowena Ravenclaw's daughter was extremely interesting. The ghost must be very very old, then. "That's fascinating," she replied, in awe. "I...didn't know about ghosts. They weren't in what I read. Or my old textbooks...that we covered..." Maybe they were in there somewhere. Why hadn't she thought to scour them last night?

"Can I ask more?" Because Ariel had PLENTY of questions and wanted to make sure Sophie didn't have big plans to run off to her friends before classes today.
