Rachel did not think that the ghost lady would go around showing herself to non magical persons. How right she was.
"But that was just an accident. I know you didn't mean to do that. Anyone would be startled if they saw a ghost pop out of nowhere. It's the same for humans when they appear suddenly.'' Rachel smiled again. "Oh, Lady Helena. You have nothing to worry about. No one can hate you.'' She was the sweetest ghost ever.

The Ravenclaw looked at Rachel, and nodded in agreement. “Or they are not just used to seeing such forms.” He added, offering the ghost a grin. “I don’t see any reason why they should hate you. They ought to know that you are part of this castle, as much as we are.” He said, fixing his uniform’s cuff discreetly. “I suppose not everyone can handle surprises very well.” Like him, actually.
Jace looked up at her as soon as Lady Helena hovered closer. My goodness. Not everyone can say he can talk to spectres! “Just because one is of magical decent, doesn't mean that he knows...” Jace trailed off. “Not everyone is as curious, I believe.” He said wondering if she’s already convinced with his answer.
"I was talking of someone of wizard blood yes, " Helena admitted thoughtfully. Seeing a little shred of hope in Rachel's words she asked
"So if I tried to make my presence known somehow before floating up through a table for example, then student's wouldn't be as startled?" But how would she manage that? She could not touch things owned by the living.
Jace words combined with Rachel's did make Helena feel better. Maybe she wasn't as ghastly and intimidating as she had feared after all but then oh horror what if that was true.
"Does my transparent form make me less pretty and ladylike?" It mattered. What if that was why Sir Nicholas hadn't talked to her as much of late?
