[≋] 1st wave - returner

[seadragonbloom]

[Voice]

[Sounds of determined footsteps walking down a hallway: they're not in a hurry, but sound pretty much like someone's not in the cheeriest mood ever. A light huff can be heard as they continue.]

---Jeez, give yourself a time away and you totally forget what a maze this place can be! Serves me right for never exploring too much.

Okay, so

It is down in the dungeons behind an enchanted wall… that maybe why you missed it.
I hope you remember the password?

[seadragonbloom]

---Dungeons! Right. Gah-- That shouldn't be so hard to remember!

[seadragonbloom]

Password? Uh... Wait up. I think I have it written down somewhere. I'm not really great at these things.

[unyieldingwill]

If you have lost the password, maybe one of the Slytherin students can remind you what it is….
I am afraid I don’t know the password to the Slytherin Common Room myself.

[That voice...]

[legendary_fire]

[It sounds familiar, but it's been quite a while. Can it be? Is... is she really back?!]

[legendary_fire]

Umi?

[legendary_fire]

[It is! It is Umi! ]

Is it true?! Are you really back!?

[Feels the need for audible confirmation. Those few months that her best friend was gone seemed like forever!]

[namaste_jagat]

Do not feel disheartened Miss Ryuuzaki, it is quite easy to lose one's direction in this particular school.

The Slytherin Common Room is in located in the dungeons. Should you require an assist, I would be more than happy to escort you there.

...Agni? Is that you? Still around, I see! That's good to hear.

I just got a good pointer from a fellow student, but I bet I'd find it much faster with an escort.

/Flails Back XD

[namaste_jagat]

That is correct. [Is glad that she still remembers him]

Then I will be there shortly. [Almost asks if she can describe where she is now, but he opted to use a locater spell instead]

I trust that you had a pleasant trip?

GOD I LOVE THIS GUY

[seadragonbloom]

Don't keep me waiting! [Teasingly, though she's enough of a posh pureblood rich brat to mean it a little.]

As pleasant as coming back to school can get! ...Which isn't much, but at least I'm looking forward to seeing some people again.

[no_souls_here]

Welcome back, Miss Ryuuzaki.

[Ciel remembers her due to her fencing prowess, and prestigious family ties. He doesn't bother to give her directions as others had already come forward.]

[seadragonbloom]

...Thanks, Ciel. That sure felt long.

[Oh, she absolutely remembers Earl Uptight Phantomhive and his loyal butler.]

Good to see you too.

[no_souls_here]

Don't mention it. May I inquire as you where you've been?

[If he only knew that's how you address him internally]

[seadragonbloom]

[But he'll never know. NEEEEEEEVEEEEEER.]

France, back to my former school. [Which may or may not be Beauxbatons: that's up to the reader to decide.] The usual drill, plus a couple of fencing tournaments.

I hear things have been tough around here.

[spinningtheweb]

[Notices someone in need of guidance but it isn't the sort that applies to a counselor. Is sorely tempted to say nothing at all.]

One of your fellow classmates, or a member of staff in the area should be able to direct you more sufficiently in person than over the journals.

I do not believe we've been formally introduced.

[seadragonbloom]

...Because we haven't. Umi Ryuuzaki, 3rd year. You are?

I got a good lead now. Not that I remember many of my fellow classmates. But thanks for the good advise.

[spinningtheweb]

Mr. Faustus. One of the resident counselors.

Think nothing of it. Should you require my services at some point, my office hours are posted and please remember to schedule an appointment before coming to see me.

[Stresses this point. Students should learn to be resonsible and punctual... ]

[seadragonbloom]

[Boy, this teacher's the old-fashioned disciplined type.]

...Okay, noted! Thanks Mr. Faustus. I usually don't bother the counselors much.
