Suppose she could be quite helpful. She glanced at Jamie and then back to the woman. Deciding that he was too much of a wuss to talk, she took over herself.

"We were interested in all the pirate stuff that's been going on around here. And we decided that we should go do a little bit of research. See if what the clues are telling us is true" she stated truthfully. "What do you think? Do YOU believe in the pirate stuff?" she asked raising her brow.

"Of course, I do," the librarian replied. "Pirates have been a part of our history for centuries. One of the oldest documents describing pirates and their activity, dates all the way back to 1350 BC." Often times, fact was more interesting than fiction. As far as Madam Donovan was concerned, Pirate History fell in that category.

"You seem bothered by subject..." she stated, noting the look on the girl's face.

‘Well… you’re family is just awesome! That’s why I’d be jealous of you.’, and, after a short break, she added: ‘But thank you.’ Feels good being told you are cool. Tee hee.
As she listened to the girl talk, Gwen froze. ‘W-What?Wait a sec? Gryffindor Keeper? Weasley?’, then she remained speechless (probably for the first time ever). ‘Ron Weasley is your great grandfather?!?!’ and her eyes started going wiiiide…

"Well, I bet your family is awesome too!" she said. "And your welcome. Anytime, mate!" she said happily. "Yes, Ron Weasley he is my great grandfather...I want to be a Keeper like him too, but I'm a first year so maybe next year." she said shrugging. "I am obsessed with Quidditch, you know." she said with a laugh.

The Slytherin raised her eyebrow at the woman, who she assumed was the Librarian, Delilah never really paid attention to any of the Professors but this interested her. But the fact she did believe in Pirates made her pay attention even more. Most adults would shrug off the existance of pirates, they were myths, things like that. She nodded along to her statement, she knew that but it was certainly fascinating.

Bothered? She shook her head this time. "No, not bothered just.. Particularly interested" she stated in a matter-of-fact tone. She tilted her head. "So do you think Pirates existed here then?" she asked, glancing around before drawing her attention back. "In Hogwarts I mean. What do you think the possibility of there being.. I don't know.. Some sort of treasure around here?" Her eyes lit up as she asked plenty of questions.

"Good," Kimber said plainly, taking a seat beside the Slytherin girl. Casting a glance to each side, the librarian leaned in a little and nodded her head. "Yes, I do," she whispered. "In fact, I'm nearly positive." Not about treasure or anything weird like that, but after what she had seen...

"Would you like to come with me?" she offered. "I think I can shine some pretty interesting light on the subject."

Delilah's eyebrows shot up even further as the Librarian said she believed in the concept of Hogwarts pirates. Her lips fell into a grin as she did, completely fascinated by the subject and that there was such an adult that didn't think her foolish. "Why do you think they were here?" she asked. What treasure would they have left behind? What clues? What type of pirates? So many questions she had to ask. Answers that would give her ideas.

She glanced up and nodded her head. "Alright" she answered, standing up ready to follow her.

Jai :)
 
Caroline decided that since her Pap'a was Italian and insisted on wirting to her half in english and half in Italian that she would need to be good idea to learn Italian. She thought that the readong lounge would be a good place to go. She flopped down on one of the couches. Opening the How to Speak Italian book flipping throught the first few pages. She sighted this maybe harder that she thought. Does anyone around know how to speak Italian? Anyone?

Jai who had some reading to, went to the library to do so. As he came in with books under his arm he saw his friend Caroline. He headed over and said"Hey Caroline. What are you doing?", as he saw a troubled expression on her face.

Kimber looked behind her back again. For some reason, she was feeling strangely paranoid. Hmm... "Meet me outside of the Restricted Section. I'll show you."

That said, the librarian stood up and walked away.

Caroline who was figuring out how in the world to pronounce this in Italian. She looked up from the book. "Well hello there Jai" She said with a smile. And to answer his question about what she was doing. Holding up the book and gave him a its a long story look "Learning to speak Italiano" Yep that was a long story. Noticing that he had quite a pile of books she asked "What about you?"

He nodded,"Oh. How's that going?"he asked as he looked at the book she held up. He'd been to Italy for an entire summer with his parents on one of their expeditions of exploration and extraction.Of course he did pick up a bit of Italian there."Lingua italiana, buone."he said.

"Eh, just catching up on some potions and charms readings. Couldn't bother going outside like I normally do, so here I am."he continued, with a friendly smile.

Caroline shook her head and gave a little laugh. "Not two good." Her eyes widen as he spoke to her in Italian. Tossing the book to the side, she wasn't going to toss it towards his last thing she'd what was to hit another Gryffindor boy with a book. Maybe if she was nice to him he would teach her Italian. Thought she had know idea what he had said "You know Italian?"

She laughed "I know, It's had to study outdoors these days." What with the warmer weather and sunshine it was great to be outside.

"Sì bella ragazza. I went to Italy for an entire summer with my parents. I had to learn it or else I would gotten lost."he replied with a small chuckle. He sat in the chair next to her, resting his books on his knee. The question had to be asked,"Why do you want to learn Italian?"

Caroline thought about picking up the book and try to figure out what he was saying. "I just got back from there." She told him as hee took a seat beside her. She smiled "My dad. My biological dad. He's Italian. I went there to meet him. He'll start start talking to english and finish in Italian half of the time, or He'll say an Italian word in the middle of a sentence."

"Oh.That's great Caroline."he said, smiling, genuinely happy for her."I guess that can be tricky to read. But I could help you if you want. It's not problem."he said. It was in his nature to help a friend. That was just Jai.

Caroline smiled, he meant it. "Really? That's sweet of you." She gave him a small hug. Looks like she didn't need that book anymore. "Do you need help with potions or charms?" She asked, trying to return the favor Charms and potions were her best subjects after all.

"It my pleasure."he said as she gave a little squeeze. He smiled at her and replied,"Well, not right now but when I need it I do know who to call."

Jai set his books down and said,"Let's get started. You don't have to show me the letter, just tell me the words you can't understand and I'll translate." He wanted to help her but didn't want to invade her privacy.

Caroline smiled "Okay, then you can count on me." Pulling out the letter, she really didn't mind if he seen the letter. "Thanks again." She grinned and showed him the letter. It was short.

Dearest Caroline

buon compleanno! This Collana is from my bisnonna . I hope that one day you can find it in your heart to forgive me and we get try to make up for our time lost.

Ti amo
Pap'a

"I've figured out that pap'a is father/dad and Collana is necklace. It's not much to figure out." She guessed thats what collana meant she did recive a necklace from her dad. She shrugged it was just important for her to know.

Jai looked at and smiled at the content."He says Happy birthday and that the necklace is from his great grandmother." he told her. Jai looked at her with warm eyes and said,"It the words may not be there in english or italian but he loves you."

It was something he felt honoured to have seen.

Caroline smiled when he said that the necklace was from what would be her great great grandmothers. So that was Happy birthday in Italian. He loves her. "So he doesn't hate me?" she said in a quite voice.

Jai shook his head,"He would be bonkers not to love you. Your his piccola principessa, his little princess. Besides anyone who knows you is defenseless against your charm."

He meant it. The moment he met her she was a kind and sweet girl he knew he would have as a very good friend.

Caroline shrugged, if only he knew the whole story. She blushed slightly "Yeah?" She said laughing at the defenseless agaisnt her charm. She just grinned some more.

"So I haven't seen you in a while. Like Hogwarts?" He had been here nearly all term now and wanted to know what he thought.

"Mhm."he said, nodding and smiling.

"Well, the classes are awesome. The teachers are cool. The quidditch is all the rage. I've made a few friends including you and the ladies are pretty as are you."he replied. Jai was really liking Hogwarts, it was warm place where everybody knows yours.

Caroline just smiled that was one of the nicest things that anyone has ever said to her.

"That's good. I'm glad that you are enjoying it here." She really didn't mean that. He was the first friend that her and Carter had made together. "I'd like you to know that I like having you as a friend and I know that Carter does too." The ladies huh? Boys "So are you interested in anyone?" because if he was she could help him out if she knew her.

Jai gave her a rare and shy smile,"Thank you. That's really sweet of you to say." he said humbly. It was nice to have such genuine and good friends for a change. It was the 3C's for him: Cassie, Caroline and Carter.

Chuckling softly he said,"No not particularly but it doesn't mean I am not looking. I've met some nice girls though." Jai was a bit on the shy side when it came to the ladies.

Caroline smiled back, she really meant it. She nodded. It was hard to believe that almost two years ago when her sister and all of friends left there, that she would have made all of these friends, that she had made since then.

She laughed, "Well I'm sure that when the right girl meets you, she'll see what a great guy you are." Nice girls? Yeah they're around here somewhere besides her. There was a short pause as the talked, not liking that at all she thought of something to say. "Been on the ship yet?"
