Still, once most of the students seemed to have settled in, she took the liberty to apologize as... she was likely the most apologetic of them all, really.
"Good day, students," she began reluctantly, uncrossing her arms to address them with sincerity. "It is with deep regret that I must say Quidditch star Colin Mackenzie of the Montrose Magpies unfortunately could not be here with us today," obviously, "for which we are immensely apologetic, but you won't go without a special treat!"
Maybe that was a little bit of a stretch.
"Today, we," she gestured to her fellow staff, "will be conducting a seminar on safety - what to do in potentially life-threatening situations, such as coming face-to-face with a dangerous creature, or what to do if confronted by a thieving goblin, and so on. To get an idea of what you may already know and what we might need to work on, we're going to start off with a little bit of a game." Or... sort of a game. Picking up a box of red and green circular objects, she explained, "I'll be coming around to distribute two buzzers, one green and one red to each of you - the staff will ask a series of questions to which you will either agree - indicated by the green buzzer - or disagree, the red one." As she delivered the buzzers to the students, she glanced back at her fellow staff members to take over.
She wasn't going to be the one to say what would happen if they answered incorrectly.
As Kace got his buzzer, he knew the Green meant to agree and the Red meant disagree. He could handle that. Now these buzzers weighed heavily in his hands. He didn't know what would happen next.

"--It's most likely when you're stressed that shouting, those high-pitched sound waves, will only add pressure on your nerves, as well as on everyone and everything surrounding you, eliciting a potential aggressive reaction making the situation worse than it already is." He personally recoiled from loud voices, his earpiece didn't agree with them, either, no matter how well he adjusted it. But this wasn't about him... ahem.
He met their eyes carefully, making sure they all were paying attention. "Okay, another one:"
"If I don't know what to do in a tricky situation, I should run away and seek cover." Pause. "Remember to press the green button if you agree, or the red one if you disagree."[/indent]
Kace was observing the other two questions so he could get the hang of it. He noticed that if you got it wrong you got zapped. Kace did not want that to happen to him, but if it did, he wouldn't be so sad or scared about it.
He heard Professor Bostros question and pondered about it for a moment. Kace decided what he would do and he pressed the RED button. He hoped he answered it right.
