Maybe she could just sit outside on the steps for the time being?
Personally, she wouldn‘t have minded but assumed that that wouldn‘t look too good so instead she continued her search. She didn‘t exactly want to share a table with more Hogwarts students because frankly she wanted to eat in peace. When she eventually spotted someone who was not a student, at least not a current one, she walked over to where Dora was standing.
„Can I share your table? We don‘t have to talk.“ Sound good?
Dora had noticed Olly was here just like she had noticed all of the other adults in the room who were greatly outnumbered by the students. It was impossible not to notice her, but she did a
very good job of playing like she hadn't seen the other woman right up until she walked over to her table and spoke to her.
There was a long silence that fell between them as she looked over at the other woman before finally nodding.
"That's fine." She had been around Olly at the other woman's wedding and exchanged just as many words. They could do the same here and go back to completely ignoring each other's existence after.
Since there was room for Olly, she didn't have to clear any space at the table, and went on about enjoying her coffee like she still didn't see the brunette.
