Evil grin still in place, Anna continued to look Cyrus Andrus right in the eye. Being evil to an ickle firstie was so out of character for her, but this was Cy and Legend she was talking to, not just any first years! She'd help both of them, of course...eventually. She'd never be the one to let someone just get stuck standing inside a block of ice for long. No, no. She'd let them squirm for a bit, then she'd help them out. She was only vaguely aware of Reese calling for her to wait up, but she did turn and smile at her friend when the girl moved to stand beside her. "Of course I'll help him! I'd never leave him just standing here," she said. "...for long."

Anna turned her attention back to Cy then, and she fought the urge to grin widely when it was clear he was getting a bit agitated over his little situation. Turn her hair green? Ha. Funny. If only he knew that someone else had been there and done that just last school year. "Copernicus Kettleburn," she simply said. "If you're interested in turning hair green, I'd talk to him." That was all that was said about that, though. She didn't honestly feel threatened by Cy. Had she felt that way, she'd never let on to him that Cope knew the trick to giving girls green hair. "Charming, though. Just charming."

"Chuck a spazz, huh? Interesting," she commented. "We wouldn't want you to chuck one of those, would we now? I tell you what... Perhaps you and I can strike a deal, Cy." She lifted her wand into the air, then brought it down upon the palm of her hand. She continued beating it down like that while she spoke. "I charm you right out of that ice...for a price. I think yelling out loudly across the Great Hall that 'Anna Greingoth is the greatest girl ever' would do the trick, wouldn't you agree?" Cue evil grin.

When young Katie Mae skated into the Great Hall (and then fell to the floor), Anna's expression faded into one of concern, and she knelt down to help the girl to her feet. "You know, if you really want to ice skate, I'd cast Glisseo on my regular shoes. I think that might help you adapt to this mock ice-skating rink a little better," she said. "Oh, and no worries about falling, because just about all of us, myself included, have made the same entrance." She smiled politely, then moved to sit on the bench beside the girl. "It's this crazy flood we're having. Only, this time the water's frozen over instead of rising. I guess that's one good thing it's done. Oh, and I do believe it's trapped your little friends inside of it, as well." Using her wand, she motioned towards Cy, whose feet were trapped inside the frozen water.

"Hey, Naomi," Anna greeted, glancing up from Katie when the Gryffindor girl appeared. "Actually, we can get out of here quite easily. It's Cy...and William, the ones whose feet are stuck inside the ice, who are having trouble moving. Other than that, getting out of here isn't really hard if you don't count the falling and sliding." Just as she'd done with Katie, Anna took her wand and motioned towards the boys who'd managed to get themselves stuck when the water froze over. "I was just at the Ravenclaw table starting to help with William. You're welcome to help if you have any ideas. I do believe Cy here was about to make a little announcement before we worked on him, though."

She turned towards Cy again, but before anything could happen, a loud, wailing noise sounded throughout the Great Hall. Eyebrows furrowed, Anna turned around to see what had happened to cause such a wail. Her eyes met with Myrtle, and she knew right off the bat that practically anything could have happened to cause Myrtle to cry. Poor ghost. "Hey, Myrtle," she greeted. It'd been just about all school year since she'd seen Myrtle. The last time she'd seen Myrtle had been in the room with that mirror...oh, no. Wait. Wasn't she down in the dungeons when the first flood happened? She definitely was, and even though Myrtle liked to play innocent, she knew things. She knew secrets about the castle no one else seemed to know.
