She'd known some of their professors this term would be ministry appointed but as Ivory stepped into the Ancient Runes classroom, she couldn't help but pause. A small part of her had been hoping she'd see the stern but comforting face of Professor Truebridge rather than...a red headed man whom she'd never seen in her life.
A red headed man who was also from the Norwegian Ministry of Magic.
Realizing she shouldn't dawdle in the entrance way, the Ravenclaw prefect walked forward. If the ministry was here to keep an eye on the situation, perhaps at least for now giving them the best impression was the better plan...perhaps then they wouldn't meddle in their curriculum.
Fixing her face into a genuine friendly smile, she approached the man. "Good morning, Professor," Her dark eyes flitted to the board for a millisecond. "Christiansen. My name is Ivory Erised, and I just wanted to say on behalf of the students, Welcome to Hogwarts and I hope you enjoy your time here."
With a respectful nod, she made her way to the front middle of the classroom and took a seat with a small smile to those already there. Yup, polite introductions and welcome. Check.
