Poe was getting ready in the Common Room. He disliked balls and such manifestations, but this was sort of obligatory so he had to come. But, he was late. This was not him, he was never late, but this manifestation was such a problem for him that he just had to come last. He put on a black tuxedo and black shoes, with a white shirt under it. He did not care much for his looks, but this was an official manifestation so he could not come in his robe, it would just not be just. He put his wand in his inner pocket and exited the Common Room. He always had his wand with him.
Soon, after climbing down the moving Staircase, Poe was in the Hall where the Ball took place. He entered and saw a lot of people. He then slapped himself in the forehead. He knew he forgot something - the mask. But, actually, he did not care. He actually had no real intent on wearing a mask, so the fact that he actually forgot it did not bother him much. He looked around to see if professor Wilson was there, but, just as he said, he was not. His nerves would not stand the crowd and the constant yelling and talking. Poe walked around a little, taking a glass and filling it with water using his wand. He walked around the Hall with the glass, hoping to notice someone familiar. He saw mrs. Granger, dancing with mr. Black. Since they were the first ones that he saw that were familiar, he approached them. ''Pardon me for the interruption, but where can I find some familiar people, since you will probably not want me sticking around your little love nest?'', he asked with a strong British accent and with a dose of sarcasm at the end. Yes, it was rude of him to interrupt, but he did not care much. He wanted his answer.
