[When it first catches her attention, Lorna tries not to look. It's very impolite to stare, after all. So, she focuses her attention on the professor. Total and complete attention. Yes.

She shuffles her notebooks. Straightens out her pens. Deep breathing. Wait. This entire time, she should have been taking notes.

Finally, she turns her head to the blond boy and whispers, every consonant very crisp.]
