"Seren! Welcome back!" And she would end there, as she was sure the Headmaster would quite disapprove if he saw them shouting across the staff table.
Seren beamed and gave Fina a wink, she could hardly wait to catch up with Fina. There was so much to discuss and so much to gossip about! She'd have to track her down later on for a drink and a chat.

Instead, she'd simply made her way up to the table at the front of the room, after spending a moment to watch the enchanted sky in the room. That was so much nicer than at Beauxbatons, even though the dining hall there had been nice.
Either way, she wanted to let the professors know she was looking forward to what they were going to teach her. Completely unaware that the large part of them seemed to be just as new to the school as she was. But she needed to say something before she looked like a complete idiot, especially as the other girl who'd come up to the table seemed to be confusing some of the professors already. "Bonsoir," she said, almost without thinking, then flushed a little as she made herself switch back to English. You're not at Beauxbatons, she reminded herself again. "Sorry. I just wanted to come up and introduce myself, and say I'm looking forward to all your classes this term," she continued, after her little inner reprimand, then flushed again. "I'm Stella Gardiner." Yeah, that was definitely not the introduction you wanted, in front of your new professors. Hopefully things would get better soon.
Seren turned, only to be confronted with an unfamiliar face. Transfer? or Herbology truant? ... But as soon as the girl spoke, her mind was put to ease.
"Ahh, Beauxbaton's transfer?" she asked, offering the young girl a smile. The French was a bit of a give away. But it was lovely to have new an delightful students. No doubt a welcome addition to Ravenclaw House.
"Pleasure to meet you Miss Gardiner, my names Professor Bentley, I'll be your Herbology professor. I trust you'll enjoy your time here at Hogwarts."
Provided the girl took herbology of course.
