Shay arrived for Divination class and paused just outside the classroom. She always had to get her mind prepared before she took on the noble art. Besides, she also had to prepare herself for the olfactory stimulation that was a part of Divination class.

As she entered the room, Shay was ready. She wondered what they would be studying today. Spotting the professor, she extended her hand and offered an enthusiastic greeting. "Hello Professor Vance", she said brightly. Then Shay had to decide where she wanted to sit. Join some of the other students or sit at an empty table? That was the question.

Not particularly feeling like being alone, Shay went for option one. If she was going to achieve her goal of getting to know as many students as possible, she'd have to make a concerted effort. Shay saw the Ravenclaw prefect (Rooney) sitting alone and decided that he would be a good person to meet. She walked over to his table and said, "Hi". "Mind if I sit here?" She hoped that the answer was no, since she was already moving to sit down. Shay eased into the chair and set her things down. Turning to her neighbor, she said, "I'm Shay". Then she did as instructed and claimed a mirror from the set on the table. Taking out her quill and parchment, Shay waited for class to begin.
