The nicest thing about graduation, Bea thinks, is that in the brief window after breakfast and before the flames burn through, most of the mals are migrating down to the graduation hall. So it's possible to let one's guard down slightly more than usual and not feel too bad about it. And if you go two to a room instead of separately to wait for the cleansing to finish... it's not like curfew's being enforced.

They're already to the side... But it wouldn't hurt to get breakfast and take their seat. (The Higgins sisters, having apparently totally ignored the scoreboard, are already seated with a good selection of food, it seems.)

Probably if they try to sit with them today it would increase the perception that Bea and Liesel are trying to suck up to them.

Good point; it might be best to catch them later - they usually only meet after classes, anyways.

Smart enough to realize there's something to be gained, not smart enough to realize approaching the sisters is a bad idea. And therefore more likely to work against them.

Well, best to just focus on eating right now. They can at least try to keep the other Londoners out of trouble.
