CK vaguely noticed the sound of another person entering the room, but she was busy searching for another animal nearby to pass the time with. Her beetle friend didn't seem within her range and they weren't really friends anyway. Not enough to just start a connection over long distance. She figured if she practiced hard enough, she might one day bypass that little limit on her power. It was only when a tap sounded from the corner of her desk that she opened her eyes again.

"What?" she grunted loud enough for only the person next to her to hear before she actually landed her eyes on them. Well, that was interesting. Her gum bubble popped, accenting the silence. The other person, she really wasn't sure he or she and didn't care, looked impressive. A faint hint of distaste passed over CK's face, but she disliked everyone on principle. If she had to give this person an honest opinion, she fount the scales entirely too flashy and bothersome, but she liked that. If she hated people that stood out, she would have to hate herself.

"Yo. This is my second year. You?" she asked, totally disregarding the subtlety of the note as she sat sideways in her desk chair.
