Sophie has her hat back on, which means she's either very difficult or very easy to find depending on if you are Masozi.

Raleigh is dispatched to track down Bella and see if she's still interested in getting herself some notebooks! 

"...So, um, this kid from the Johannesburg crowd said he's going down to the supply room after dinner with someone called Sophie? Dunno if you met her, I haven't. Um, he - kind of has maleficer vibes, you know? But apparently his affinity's for finding mals, so it'd probably be safer on that front, and I don't think he'd try anything with either of us if we're in a big group?" 

"Honestly I'm probably safer near a maleficer than almost anyone else would be, so I'm still happy to come, I really want paper."

"Cool! I should probably track down Shannon, she - um -" and he's turning red again, shit, "...she doesn't have a lot of stuff. Since she, uh. Mostly brought in my extra gear. So I figure the least I owe her is helping watch her back while she stocks up." Aaaaaaaaaaaah this is so humiliating. 

"That makes sense. I saw one girl come in stark naked and immediately buy somebody's senior outfit, so she's better off than some people."

"Gosh! Anyway, I'd better– oh, she's over there." 

Shannon is bringing a tray of food to the poor school nurse! 

(She is, in fact, not even the first person to do this!) 

She looks over when Raleigh approaches. "...Oh. Hi." Aaaaaah why is she so tongue-tied in front of him. 

"Hello. Bobbie Draper. Mind if I tag along?"

"Speak of the devil. Fine by me."

"Yeah, the weight limit was a tad tricky to manage. I see I made an impression."

"It would be hard not to but I think you handled it really well."

Raleigh ushers Shannon over. 

"Hi guys! This is Shannon. She's from Canada, and she's - alchemy track, right?" 

"Hi, Shannon, I'm Bella, New Orleans, creative writing."

"Mmm-hmm. Nice to meet you." She is SO tongue-tied. And blushing, again, because Raleigh thanked her AGAIN, TWICE, for bringing his things in. Why does he feel like he has to keep doing it, she got an entire spot at the Scholomance for it. 

And there's Sophie! She's not hard to find, he just needs to keep a look out for the spot in his scanning pattern where his eyes want to slip away. 

He ushers her over. "This is Sophie."

...And he doesn't actually remember any of the other kids' names, he just knows the boy from Sacramento and the girl by appearance. Hopefully they will helpfully introduce themselves? 

She nods to them. (She's perfectly noticeable when she's not physically in a crowd.) "I am indeed Sophie."

"Hi, Sophie, hi other person, I'm Bella."

"Still Bobbie Draper. Are we expecting any more, or...?"

"Do we want more? I've met a variety of people and could invite some."

"We've got enough for safety."

"I am not aware of anyone who will be like 'aw shoot I missed the boat' if we go now."

"The more people we have, the more likely it is we'll be splitting something we don't want to split."

That seems to settle it. Bella glances at a blueprint and figures out which direction to go and goes.

Sophie follows along. "- this is Masozi," she says after a short while. "The other person. By the way."

"Hi, Masozi."
