From an outsider point of view, Shiki appeared to be rather inattentive throughout most of the orientation. Returning nothing more than an occasional glance for each speaker before going back to his phone with a bored expression on his face. What made it worse, was that he used the husky student as his personal shield to hide himself from getting caught. On the contrary, he was doing something productive by constantly taking notes with his phone through the use of his tail. He was capable of uploading his thoughts directly into his phone or any communication device for that matter. There was little movement involved, it was one of the few perks about his quirk. 

The only notable reactions he expressed were during Itagaki-Sensei's and Tanifuji-Sensei's speeches. 

In the case of Itagaki, Shiki had to momentarily cover his mouth with one hand to prevent himself from laughing after hearing such [i]acute[/i] pun. His smile was hidden, but soft sounding little squeaks escaped his lips. It was highly embarrassing, but he had a weakness for puns. No doubt Croc-Sensei will be one of his favorite teachers, despite his intimidating appearance. 

Shiki didn't want attention drawn to himself caused by his squeaking, so he hoped the sound was drowned out by other noises in the room or ignored entirely. After settling down, his eyes wandered around the room, double checking to make sure nobody was staring at him before eventually looking back to his phone. If Shiki did make eye contact with someone, he would immediately break it and lower his head in embarrassment.

The moment arrived for Tanifuji-Sensei to speak...Shiki didn't view Tanifuji as the cute fake neko sensei that she is, all he could see was a stress inducing villain who tormented him during the entrance exam. Her strong introduction nearly caused him to flee, but the husky student in front of him made Shiki feel safe enough to remain seated. However, he was still hunched over in his own seat with a terrified look on his face, hiding half of that expression with one hand. His breathing was heavy, which could be heard by those seated around him, particularly the husky student. Regardless of how he was perceived by the others, it was actually a good sign, considering he didn't turn tail and run or scream this time. It was a small bit of progress on his long road to recovery.

It was not until Tanifuji exited the stage that he begun to finally calm down. To anyone who were concerned, he would respond with a hand gesture like saying if he was fine and an apology for the disturbance. Shiki returned to his normal seating posture and remained quiet throughout the rest of the assembly, up until the principal's sudden appearance. He was already aware some of the staff members were famous pro heroes, but he could not recall who the principal was at first based on appearance alone. The Foresight Hero, that title did ring a bell, but he would have to brush up on his history in that case. They were all inspiring, although he doubted he could reach that level of heroism himself. Excluding Tanifuji-Sensei, he wanted to be well-acquainted with all of them.

The announcement regarding the Four Pillars caused Shiki to hesitate for a moment. In one hand, this was a huge opportunity for him to prove his worth. He didn't want to think he made it this far out of dumb luck. But, would he truly be able to compete against the other schools, given his inexperience?

After the assembly came to a close, Shiki stood up and followed everyone else to Goudo-Sensei. To be honest, he was a little nervous about quirk demonstration. Unsure how he could explain himself in front of many different people, who he assumed all had better quirks. When his eyes met Shun, he recalled having exchanging quirk information with him during the entrance exam. Shiki contemplated if he should poke everyone with his tail as a demonstration, only because he wasn't fond of long winded explanations. Although, he figured using quirks against other students without their consent were against the rules. It was a fun thought.

He'll figure it out when the time comes. For now, Shiki attempted to quietly move towards Shun's location, wishing to regroup with Hiroki and the others for quirk demonstration.

[hider=Tl;dr]
Shiki uses his phone to take notes, but does so in a way that makes him look uninterested. Slips out a couple of muffled squeaks after Croc's pun. Nearly loses it when Tanifuji appeared. Stayed hidden behind Kenji as heavy breathing sounds could be heard. He eventually calmed down on his own and remained quiet in his seat, avoiding eye contact. Gauges his own skill for the four pillars and doubts himself as always. Begins to move towards Shun and Hiroki, but may be intercepted.
