- aha, there's Daria, Annisa didn't see when she was sitting down for lunch but she sees her now, over at a table with what are presumably the other Russian enclaves. Which...means Annisa's not allowed to approach, even with a bagel for a peace offering.

 While she stands there contemplating if there's a way to do it gracefully Daria's tablemates solve the dilemma for her by standing up; they're upperclassmen, and probably done eating.

Annisa ducks in as quickly as she reasonably can without looking like she was lurking waiting for them to leave, pushes the bagel across the table. (It's a good bagel. She mildly regrets the necessity of sharing it.) "Hey! The people I was going to introduce you to - Naima and Malak - are doing a run down to the shop with me now, we've run ourselves out of homework and we're going to try to get ahead on knives. Would you like to come?"
