The Charms professor could think of no better way to spend her Saturday morning than being lost in the corridors of Hogwarts. Well, actually, she could think of dozens of other ways to spend her time, but the preferred spendings of her time would have been a bit complicated at the present moment. The poor woman...she was lost on one of the many corridors of the school and had no idea where she was. However, though it was a bit frustrating, she didn't particularly mind it at all. Maybe being lost was the best thing for her.
It had all started earlier that morning when she woke from her very light, fairly bad sleep. Most of her night had been restless and was spent with her laying whichever way was comfortable while she looked blankly across the room at a wall, up at the ceiling, or down at the floor through the darkness. If she hadn't been so tired, she would have gotten up and started reading a book or writing a letter to her husband at home, but that had not been the case since she was tired and had no will to do such things. Though most of the night had been restless, she had finally fallen asleep in the early hours of the morning around one or two. She could have slept soundly without any interruptions, but she was a light sleeper and heard even the faintest of noises while she was in her state of seeming unconsciousness. Aside from that, the professor thought of the bed as rather uncomfortable, and she oftentimes had trouble sleeping without her husband beside her anyway. Things at Hogwarts were certainly different than the things she was used to, but she was going to try her best to get used to them.
Sighing, the woman walked slowly down the corridors. She had been wandering about for about an hour or two at first in search of the bathroom but had no luck. Her urge to use the lavatories was completely absent now, and she was just, well, walking. Her eyes scanned the portraits hanging on the walls of the corridors with interest as she walked, for they were moving and smiling and even talking to her. She had never seen such a thing before. She figured that it was some magical way that the pictures had been developed, but never once in all her fifty years had she had or seen pictures such as those.
When she reached a window that faced outside and off onto a large area of the grounds, she stopped and looked outside of it. When she did, her mouth dropped opened. The grounds were simply breath-taking! The professor allowed her eyes to feast upon what there was below as she blinked in pure awe. Was all of that real?! She felt herself standing on the tips of her toes like an exciting child as she leaned forwards to hopefully see more beneath her through the window. Wow...Hogwarts was truly more amazingly than the descriptions her children gave made it seem... |
