I'm having trouble thinking of ways to insert my character into the present conversations at The Headmistress's Speech. So instead of just introducing my character to that scene, [@OliveYou] would it be fine to start from a point before, and at the train station that drops students off? Furthermore would anyone be interested in that kind of interaction thread?

[/Hider][I]'Be smooth.'[/i] A shaky breath stuttered passed Seren's lips in an attempt stop themself from wringing their hands. Instead of the calming force the exhale was supposed to be, it only highlighted the fact that Seren even needed to calm down in the first place. As such, their skittish hand did not cease, and they had to consciously remind themself to keep their shoulders from hunching in apprehension. [I]'Just take the first step,'[/I] Seren instructed themself in thought, [I]'and then the next. It's simple.'[/I] Following their own lead, Seren did just that, and finally stepped off from the train platform to the mouth of the forest that surrounded the mountain on which The Academy sat. Seren disappointedly sighed at themself before repositioning their rucksack up on their back. They shouldn't be so nervous, but they had anticipated this. Seren knew themself well enough to know how they got in new situations, and Seren had learned how their siblings started to get when Seren was in new situations. 
No longer the cool disposition from Maeve watching their back; the brewing machinations from Armani plotting to scare Seren even more; and most affectionately missed, no longer did Erika give Seren's hand a warm squeeze that promised everything was going to be alright. Before they could stew in their own thoughts Seren brought theemself back to attention. They knew Maeve and Armani were waiting on them, even if Armani had promised that the two of them would go on ahead as per Seren's request. [I]'They can probably see me now,'[/I] Seren silently worried. [I]'Gotta act normal.'[/I] With false conviction they marched up towards the trail. They had a [I]long[/I] way to go to the top. Seren forced themselves to smile, and shoved their anxious hands into the pockets of their hoodie. [Color=FAD7A0]"No turning back now,"[/color] they muttered under their breath. Seren approached the worn and beaten trail that snaked its way through the woods, up the mountain, and to The Academy. Seren glanced backwards as they continued walking. Behind them was the train station, the last place between home and here. In front of them was a student, whom Seren just barely managed to see the back of before walking horns first into them. The opposite of smooth and normal.

I was thinking our characters would interact some, we skip the appropriate amount of time until we get to The Academy, and then arrive to Headmistress's speech together. That way our characters have some rapport with one another before being paired off, and we get some variety of scenery, which leads to a variety of scenarios.
