Wendy!
Chandler stayed hopeless out into the library, the middle, empty space where the visitors walked to and away from the various aisles of books. It was his favorite part of the library, the center circle where he could watch who came in and who left, who stayed the longest, what books they might be taken out---Chandler was terrible at dealing with people, but he certainly enjoyed watching them and trying to figure out their story.

Like the woman looking around, seemingly lost. She was very pretty, and looked to be on some sort of a mission. She wasn't here to read for pleasure, Chandler was almost sure. No, no, she was searching for something, and it would probably be something for another person, because you don't come to a library, looking around in such a confused manner, when you had time to figure something out for yourself. Yes, she would probably soon come to the information desk to ask him a question of where to find this book and---holy God almighty it was Wendy Tremaine.

He promptly dropped from his standing position, crouched and attempting to hide under the circular desk. His assistant, Lisa, stared down at Chandler in complete confusion, but her attention was taken by--oh, oh that was her voice.

"Can I help you?" Lisa said sweetly, and Chandler bit back a whine pressing further back into the knobs of the cabinet under the desk.

"I--I'm?" he sputtered, trying to catch a spot within her rambling. Not rambling, but--okay, it was rambling "I'm...Chandler. Midgen. Chandler--Midgen. My foot is fine."

Now, did he tell her they went to school together? That could prove awkward, he wouldn't want her to think he was trying to make her feel bad for not remembering him from school. She was a rather busy, famous quidditch player, after all. She probably met hundreds of new people every day, that would not leave enough room in her head to remember a quiet and shy bloke like him. Because--they weren't even in the same House, they didn't have the same group of friends, they just---he just kind of noticed her all the time.

"I--I think I remember you from school--Hogwarts," he mumbled quickly, cheeks reddening again at his pseudo-lie. It wasn't as if he didn't think he knew her from school. He could just blame his completely stunned state on the fact that she was a famous quidditch player, which played nicely into his near hyperventilation earlier.

"Dodderidge!" she blurted out-- but she moved on hurriedly before he could give her a tremendously bizarre look and ask how hard she really did hit her head, "Maddox Dodderidge--you were--his friend!"

That's right! It was all coming back to her now-- Chandler Midgen. Ra--no, Hufflepuff! Quiet. Studious, she'd never really talked to him for long, if--well, if at all? Was that right? But no, Maddox was a Head with her, and she was sure someone like Chandler had to have been a Prefe--yes! Yes, he was, she was sure of it--she did know him, after all! Well, well-done, Wendy's brain. Thank you for not putting her in too much of an embarrassing situation this time around.

"Chandler Midgen! I do remember you now; I thought your face looked familiar."

Wendy tilted her head to get a better look at him, now successfully being able to mentally compare it with that of his school-aged appearance. Growing up had done very nice things to him, in her opinion. She sort of wished she had been that lucky.

Ooh, but... what did she do now, now that she'd affirmed that they went to school togeth--

"So you work in a library, now! That's very successful--I think I remember wondering why you'd never been a Ravenclaw, because you were so much smarter than everybody else in there!"

Wendy puffed out her cheeks and gave him a slightly doleful look. She didn't even know why she bothered thinking when her mouth clearly had a mind of its own.
