Cho leaves the library slowly, a large book in front of her face as usual. Passing out into the hall, she sees someone standing there. "Hello," she says absent-mindedly, and proceeds on her way.
A few moments later, she stops dead in her tracks, lowering the book from her view. She turns around slowly, a look of numb shock on her face. Her mouth opens and closes, but no sound comes out.
He continues rubbing his forehead and mutters something to himself, before looking up. A half-spoken greeting gets stuck as he sees just who said "Hello".
His voice suddenly pulling her out of her mental stupour, Cho jerks back, eyes widening and drops her book with a loud thud. "Cedric..." she whispers. Her face contorts with confusion and she shakes her head suddenly, as if having a mental argument with herself. He wasn't supposed to be here.
He does notice and it's not helping his already impressive headache any. He rubs his forehead... again... giving himself a very nice, angry, red spot. Right in between his eyebrows.
"I have a headache that's killing me, I remember the Cup being a Portkey and what's with you and this..."
He waves at Harry, hoping to communicate the "looking older" bit.
Hm. Well, this is interesting. And at least it's not going to be someone whose immediate reaction will be 'zomg u killed dumbledore!! ;____;', even if he wouldn't even think about putting it in those terms, and in fact, was simply being influenced by a typist on crack, but now there's rambling going on, which shall now cease. "Mr. Diggory."
This is getting weirder by the minute, he thinks to himself as he sees his old Potions professor. He raises his eyebrows slightly, but answers in a polite way.
"Professor Snape..."
[/sock]: It's OK. I'm trying to keep it from eating me![sock]
Remus raises an eyebrow and gives a brief smile. "Hello again, Mr. Diggory." He's used to people coming back from the dead -- after all, Sirius, James, and Lily are already here.

He shakes his head, this isn't like him, to stutter this badly.

"Are you always this hostile? And what do you mean, "back". Did I go somewhere?"
He does notice that Malfoy looks a bit different from how he remembered, and frowns...

"How.. are you?" He asks hesitantly, not sure how much Cedric remembers.

He looks increasingly more confused and now slightly worried, too.
"Excuse me, sir, but... what's going on?"
