Desiree had decided to keep taking Ancient Runes. She could have dropped it of course, probably should have given the constant struggle it had proved to be in the past. But, she was stubborn; and more importantly- she was fascinated.

So with that mindset, she took note of the blackboard, gave a polite nod to Professor Botros which he probably didn't even see (too engrossed in his book, she could understand that) and found her name tag a little off to the side. She was the oldest here as far as she could tell, at least for now. But that wasn't surprising really. It's not like it was required.

It couldn't bother her much anyway because it was just so.. cold. There was no way around it. She easily had four layers on and was concentrating so hard on not shivering that it naturally happened anyway. She did take off her white woolen hat though, it seemed the respectful thing to do. Her ears would survive.
