Originally Posted by SilverTiger  Renée had taken the time between setting up the classroom and class beginning to jot down a few more plot ideas for her next book. Normally, she would have tried to just remember everything until she had free time, but she had a feeling her train of thought would shift before then. Especially if students actually appeared. She'd hoped there would be more than just the few students who'd seemed interested earlier, but she'd decided to hold the class either way. She'd get people interested one way or another.
She'd glanced up from the page on her desk briefly as people started filtering in, however. Smile growing as they kept coming, and she found her hopes growing. "Good morning," she said to those who greeted her. "Make yourselves comfortable, and I'll get things started soon," she added, before briefly noting a bit more on her paper. Looking up again, another amused smile crept onto Renée's face as she saw the familiar figure of Rae, from the feast. Not to mention the expression on the Slytherin's face. "Good morning Miss Skye," she said, somewhat deliberately. The girl could dislike her, and could continue to choose not to speak. She was fine with that, simply because she knew it was just because of Jared. But that wasn't going to stop her from continuing to prove she knew she was there. Her dark eyes tracked over from Miss Skye as Renée sensed a bit of boredom entering the classroom, and she smiled at the blond boy as he spoke politely. "Good morning,' she replied. "Hopefully you'll find my class is less tiring than you've previously thought." Just an assumption, nothing more, but people who chose to sit at the back usually expected little from class. Renée smiled at the next girl who entered, skipping. The enthusiasm was almost refreshing, even if she couldn't say where it came from. It reminded her a little of herself when she was younger, really. "Good morning," she said in response to the greeting, as the girl made herself comfortable. "I'm doing quite well today." It seemed she wasn't going to get much more written though. Oh well, class should start soon anyway. Her dark eyes widened slightly as she watched a boy literally trip into her classroom, but Renée remained quiet until he spoke. She watched as he righted himself, however. She just didn't want to step in if it could be taken wrongly. "Good morning," she replied as he settled into his seat. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr Brooks, and I'm happy to hear that." There were still too many people who looked down on the subject as a bunch of guesswork and smoke and mirrors. At least he seemed to have recovered from his near miss. A dark eyebrow raised infinitesimally as Renée saw the silent shudder of the Ravenclaw boy who entered. There was definitely a bit of curiosity as to where that had come from, but she wasn't about to call him out in front of the others in class. Perhaps later, although the smile she gave him as he spoke was just as curious. That smile could be a ruse, and she wasn't about to take it for granted as otherwise. "Good morning, Mr. McKinley," she replied instead, simply. Setting her pen down finally as she decided she wasn't going to get much more work done. She had thought there was somebody standing just outside the door, and Renée smiled as it proved to be Mr Lockhart. opening the wooden box, she slid her papers inside as he greeted her, noting the neutrality of the words as she watched him. "Good morning, Mr Lockhart. You seem to have come to a conclusion or two," she commented idly, but still welcoming, latching the box and settling back into her chair as she smiled again. Perhaps he'd figured out a few more things, as she found amusement in how he'd cleared his mind, or possibly he just didn't want another situation. As the next girl entered, Renée was both surprised and not surprised by the brightness. Of the girl's hair, of her demeanor. It seemed there were all kinds at Hogwarts, which was the exciting part of the Wizarding world. Along with the many things that could be learned. "Good morning, Miss Farris. Pleasure to meet you, and in fact my break was quite lovely," she replied with a smile, watching as Satine seemed to go through some consideration as to where she should sit. And as she chose, Renée kept watching. It seemed the bright girl knew Dallin, at least. "Be careful with the note passing. You don't want to risk the wrong person getting hold of them," she warned, before going back to waiting for others to arrive. Another bit of amusement went through Renée as she noticed the next arrival to the classroom. Or, the student, who appeared to be a Slytherin, seemed to notice her. Interesting, going back to Miss Skye and her resentment. Seemed Slytherin was the place for that type of response. As he slid into one of the front desks, she fought to not laugh as she remembered the feast again. it seemed there was the possibility Professor Descoteaux wasn't the only one who gained the attention of students. He just got them first. "Good morning," she replied, still choosing to simply be amused by the way the boy was staring. Even as it could be just this side of creepy to others. "I appreciate the respect, but 'ma'am' makes me feel old. I'd prefer Professor Bishop," she said with a little grin. If they were continuing the respect issue. Renée bit back another grin as the next girl arrived shortly after she'd spoken to the Slytherin boy, silently asking for her name. if she'd been just a few seconds earlier, that might not have been a question, but she wasn't abotu to begrudge the girl. "Bishop. Professor Bishop," she supplied, "and good morning to you as well, Miss Salvatore. You seem excited." She wasn't against a bit of prying for basic information. Renée's amusement faltered a little as she watched the next young girl enter, smiling at another girl before apparently deciding against it. There had seemed to be excitement moments before, but now she felt a pang of sympathy. "Good morning. I'm quite well," she replied, giving her a smile. At least she would pay attention. "How are you?," she added, continuing her choice of being polite. At least there was time before the lesson. She thought she'd let more people make their way up before starting. And as she'd decided to let people continue to filter in, Renée looked toward the door as she heard another person arriving. "Good morning Miss Hollingberry," she said to the Gryffindor from the feast, charmed by the apparent continued nervousness. She was going to get the girl to relax before long, especially as she wasn't offended by the mistake from the summer. "It was nice. I hope you're getting more into the swing of things." Relaxing and all. She hoped the girl didn't retain her embarrassment for too long. At least she seemd to have a friend in the lesson, as she watched Kurumi take a seat next to another Gryffindor boy. She was really going to have to learn everyone's names.
