Clara had noticed there were still some seats left in the classroom and started to look for a good empty one when she spotted the lint roller in front of her. She sighed as she carefully used the lint roller on her clothes, familiar with the item after all these years. Making sure that everything was as clean as possible, she entered the classroom, making the traditional salute and saying "Live long and prosper, Professor!" loud and clear. No one really turned around and gawked at her, so she figured this was definitely normal behavior.
She took a seat near the front, but not directly in the front. Close enough to pay attention, but not staring into the professor's eyes. Although she had come prepared with all her materials, she only whipped out some spare parchment first and placed it on her desk. As more students began to arrive, she started smoothing out the parchment and getting her other utensils (wand, textbook, quill), glancing at the door every now and then to look at the familiar and not-so-familiar faces.
