Shannon sits with Sacramento at breakfast and is walked to class by Cassie and Vanya, on their way to their own classes. The roster timing means that she is EARLY, which is apparently often not a smart plan for first period? But Cassie checks the classroom for her, and finds only a single suspicious cocoon under the podium at the front of the room and a flat shimmery thing attempting to hide by sticking itself to a Cold War propaganda poster advising people not to brag about their jobs. Vanya sets both on fire, which leaves a scorch mark in the middle of the poster - though honestly Shannon thinks this could be an improvement to the graphic design - and a lingering smell of burnt hair. 

The classroom has six metal desks bolted to the floor, and incredibly creaky chairs, and a ceiling light with an annoying flicker. Shannon sits down in the least creaky chair she can find, and waits for others to arrive.

Caio finds the place without too much incident. "Good morning!" he says to Shannon, after a double-take at the smoking poster. He checks over a desk next to hers.

"Morning!" Has she...met him. It keeps happening that someone's face looks vaguely familiar but she has no idea if she had a conversation with them at some point or just stood several places over from them in the lunch line. Maybe her parents should have made her drill this? She's not sure how you would drill 'trying to learn the names of over a thousand new freshman' but still.

- oh god she is going to die of embarrassment. "Yeah," she says, which - will maybe make it sound like she didn't forget all of that information but isn't actually lying. "Uh, how were your classes yesterday?"

It is GROSSLY UNFAIR that he has to have a lab class first thing in the morning EVEN THOUGH he was responsible and put his actual intro to lab class later in the day. Principles of Chemistry just APPEARED, just because the school THINKS HE SHOULD LEARN CHEMISTRY, or something. Which he would, absolutely, if it happened at a less bad time of day, and he guesses that in fact he will learn it anyway, but he's going to complain about the manner in which this is happening.

One of the Zanzibar juniors has language lab first thing and has agreed to help him check the room, so that's good. They get to work on it together, not trusting that the people already here have done an adequate job.

"Uh, good morning," says Caio, looking with puzzlement at the upperclassman. Is this one of those mixed-levels classes?

"Good morning," he says, and does not elaborate, swinging open several cabinet doors that have not been specifically marked hazardous to see whether they are in fact not hazardous. None of them are.
