"Thank you Melanie. It must have been Peeves, he's our only poltergeist," she said, though it could have been many other things too. Hogwarts was FULL of ancient magical charms and tricks. Sometimes it could be dangerous, though most pranks were just annoying. "If this were last year it could have been the other poltergeists: Miffy or Storm, but they left." Thankfully.

Carefully she examined the vases. "Um I think they belong on the seventh floor, in the hallway. I'm not entirely sure, there are lots of vases like them."

"Do you think we should levitate them up?" she asked her.
Melanie Williams was an Ilvermorny professor, dear, and would not appreciate being mistaken for a student. Perhaps it was flattering that she looked young, but Melanie thought her maturity and wisdom far exceeded any of her students, sans one or two that she considered, basically, on her level.

Nonetheless, Melanie smiled. “You all had three poltergeists last year?” she asked curiously. How in the world had any learning or teaching been done? She still had yet to meet the prankster. Peeves was someone she did not want to meet, though, unlike the rest of the school ghosts. They were interesting and full of history, not spit-riddled raspberries like Peeves. “Please...call me Professor Williams,” she said a little coldly. Melanie….Merlin. She would never let a student call her Melanie. And she'd die if she even heard a whisper of "Baelanie," Khalil Jordan.

“Levitating them might be a tad dangerous...if we were to drop them...then….” She thought the girl would get the picture. “We can carry them.” She had both in her arms right now, but she handed one to the Hogwartian girl. “You are a…..Ravenclaw, then?” she saw the colors. “And a prefect?” And the badge. Hmmm.
