Vivian spends the rest of the event drifting back and forth between groups, making sure the chocolate frogs don't run out and generally trying her best to make everyone feel welcome. There's a wizard chess group that's reserved the room after them so the meeting isn't long, but she thinks it went well. People are still showing up, at least, which is good. Queer visibility!

The next week, the evening after the teacher assigns their weekly Runes packet, Vivian shows up in the library with her Runes books and nervously heads for Karen's usual table. Maybe she forgot? Maybe Karen's friends are here and won't want her to join? Why is socializing so hard.
