Entering the Ancient Runes classroom, he noted that it looked old and insecure and he had to resist the urge not to move the desks so that they were all symmetrical and in line. It also didn't help when he noticed that he would be having to sit in groups... he had hoped that he could just take a desk to himself and leave it at that.
Picking the quietest table, he took a seat and began tapping his fingers on the desk, counting each one he did. "One... two... three," just above a whisper. He could feel his nerves settle slightly as he took his mind off things in the classroom. He couldn't even bare to focus on the fact that the blackboard was writing itself, in fear he may just have to run out and never return. Bennet glanced to his left as another student, one who looked a few years younger than him, took a seat at his table. Bennet nodded a greeting, tacking on at the end an ever-so-loquacious, "Hey." |
