Weird rules were WEIRD. Norah had spent all her entire walk up to the astronomy tower trying to make her fingers go into that V shape, but her ring finger just didn't seem to want to snuggle up to her pinkie like it was supposed to. Lame. That ring finger was missing out, 'cause her littlest finger was the very best one, uh huh.

The attempted v-shape didn't seem to be very good for holding on to lint rollers either, considering that it dropped right out of her hand and did a little bit of sticking to her shoe before she gave up on practicing and picked it up normally again. Were they going to have all term to learn this thing or what? 'Cause the first time was NOT the charm, apparently. Once she was all lint-free (where did the lint even come from anyways? Aside from the fact that it didn't live in her hair, Professor Flamsteed hadn't exactly explained that part very well. Four entire terms here and STILL nothing), she stepped into the classroom. There was only a second of staring--and beaming--at all the SHINY stuff going on (and admiration of her four pip thingies, of course), before she was lifted right up off her feet. OH MAN. THIS WAS GOOD STUFF. FLOATY HAIR AND ROBES AND EVERYTHING.

It took 500 million percent of her effort to keep from squealing, because real responsible Prefects were probably not allowed to do that, as she flapped and wiggled her way over to a desk. The no-skirt thing had been a very good idea, mhmm. Way to go to Professor Flamsteed. She showed him her attempt at the v-shape, though her ring finger still stayed suspended somewhere in the middle of the V so it looked a bit more like a W. Nobody would notice, right? She wasn't even sure what the V stood for yet. "Long live and prosper, Mr. Admiral sir Flamsteed!" With a big smile, she abandoned her funny hand shape to wave at him, and then take a seat near the front. Okay. Okay cool. Name tag time.

Once she'd managed to extract a quill from her bag, she wrote 'LIEUTENANT COMMANDER NORAH LILLIAN KITTREDGE' in big curly letters and gave it a tap with her wand. It wasn't as good as Princess Prefect, but it'd do. For now.
