Waiting for answers to her question, Renée raised an eyebrow again as another student, a little Ravenclaw, chose to walk in late. Not only that, but she didn't really even seem to notice that she had, which made her sigh inwardly. Why did it have to be a Ravenclaw? "Good morning. It was nice of you to join us, but unfortunately you are late. One point from Ravenclaw," she replied, still inwardly flinching. Hopefully the girl would catch up with the lesson.

Again!? At least she hadn't asked her to explain. Enough people knew about her family issues. She really didn't need her brother trying to get revenge for ruining his chances with an attractive girl or something stupid like that. Nathaniel would no doubt get peeved about the fact that she told her Ancient Runes professor that he was essentially the reason she was late.
Maybe I am just really off schedule. But it is the first day, so maybe I just need to get used to where my classes are.

She knew what she was after, but there was the possibility the texts gave slightly different information, not to mention she didn't know what all the students might have read beyond the textbook.
She quickly grabbed her textbook from her bag, but after hearing the question left it on her desk.
Nathaniel was studying this over break, wasn't he?
She decided to interject; she hated speaking in front of her peers, but she really needed to get back some house points.

"I think she's right: astrology and cartomancy. Divination using celestial forms, like the planets, and fortune-telling," she said as clearly as possible, hoping her memory was correct.
