She had had stories, of course but never had officially met her. But instead of introducing herself to the ghost straightaway, she paused, realizing that this was perhaps not the best time for such a thing. "Boyfriend? Oh no.. I don't..." Sure, she was dating someone but boyfriend? Erm... Erm.. Vi felt extremely awkward. ~~Not yet....~~

And then the ghost began sobbing. Olivia felt REALLY REALLY REALLY awkward now. Vi reached her hand out towards the ghost but then paused. She didn't know what she should do to help in such a situation. It wasn't like she could exactly reach out and comfort the ghost..... She looked to Skylar for insight and then followed Skylar's lead with addressing the ghost and making sure not to bring up the boyfriend stuff. Planning for Vivian could wait. In the meantime, maybe they could help Myrtle out.

"I'm sorry... We didn't mean to be rude to you... We both heard you crying out in here and we wanted to see if you were alright which is why we came in here," she said with a nod. "No one should be alone." It was an awful fate and it had been something that had scared her when she was a small child. Being alone for the rest of her life and only knowing people on an acquaintance level and not truly knowing anyone.... That was terrifying. "I'd like to be your friend too, Myrtle." She offered the ghost a smile at that point.

“I do remember.’’ Myrtle grudgingly admitted to it. “Really? You came to check on me?’’ Myrtle was all smiles and joy. Her dramatics seemed to happen so long ago. “We can be friends. I WOULD LIKE THAT because no one ever wants to be friends with me.’’

*sniff*

OH good, Olivia had gotten the memo about the shift in conversation, because Myrtle was one hundred percent their focus here. Also, was it her imagination or was Olivia playing around to mess with Myrtle about the 'i don't...' because Skylar was almost positive she'd seen something between her and the Gryffindor Prefect. Or well, actually, she had no idea. She didn't talk to Olivia enough to know, but she DID see them in classes and around the castle.

BUT the outburst from the ghost though did catch Skylar off guard and pulled her thoughts away from Olivia and back at the ghost. Was it that obvious that she was lying? Merlin, she had to work on this game clearly. And then the tempo changed; Myrtle REMEMBERED her!! "Of course, yes, I came to check on you. I do have a full course load plus many extracurriculars, but you're always in my thoughts." Surely as a former Ravenclaw, she could appreciate when one put their studies first. "Would it help if I tried to visit here after Arithmancy classes?" It would be most convenient and last thing she wanted was an emotionally sensitive ghost on her bad side.

She offered a comforting smile as well.
