Don't be seen around the outcast, and people won't treat you as one. Social self-preservation. She paused, focusing on the rubber ducky collection. "I thought it'd be different at Hogwarts."

Moxley listened intently, eyes never leaving the Ravenclaw. Once she'd finished, the brunette sat up a bit and glanced over at the sorting hat thoughtfully. "The hat puts people in certain houses for a reason, Ms. Denaker. Now you're a first year, in her first few months at a new school and it's hard. I know it's hard, but that's hardly long enough to decide you're in the wrong place." She had hardly given the house a chance and Moxley highly doubted she was avoided. Well, unless she didn't shower or something but the girl seemed very well groomed. "Ravenclaw is your family here at Hogwarts and I want you to try and get to know the members of your house. Find common ground, that's always a good start. I'm sure Mr. Kitridge would be more than willing to help, if you're not up to doing it on your own." But the girl had braved the headmistress's office on her own so Moxley had faith in her.

Anyways, she took a seat as told and had to take a moment to calm down.

I'm talking to the Headmistress. I have to be at my best.

"I," her excitement was obvious from her flushed cheeks and shaky voice, "just wanted to ask if I could attend your classes even though I'm a first year. I'll just observe. Or," she added as an afterthought, "participate if you want me to." Professor Draper had wanted her to. Could she be so lucky?

Moxley's grin was immediate after hearing the girl's question and she clapped her hands excitedly. "Why of course you can! My lessons are geared towards those of all ages and I'd love it if you'd join us and explore the muggle world." Sharing her passion for the subject matter was one of her greatest joys and she couldn't imagine turning a student away. "Tell, Ms. Moss, do you know much about Muggle Studies?"
