SPOILER!!: Tobias Tempus Precious!

Lego-mency.

Precious Hufflepuff! He could stay next to Forrest in her pocket. Forever!

"Legilimency...Mister Tempus." she chuckled quietly, having nooo issues with giving a big ol' smile to the first year. "What makes forcing yourself to think of other things besides the memories the legilimens is seeking, or currently seeing, difficult on the legilimens is not because you make it loud in your head." Preciooouuus. "It's because you're forcing the legilimens to see the exact same thing you want them to. They can break past your wall of a thought however, and see memories that you may not even think of, like you said. They can dive deep into your mind and force things to come up that you may even be suppressing from yourself. It all depends on the skill of the legilimens, and the skill of the occlumens."

Oh dear, he was sorta losing her here. She...got the gist of what he was asking? Maybe? "That...is the whole point of this activity. To not think of the card. Period. If you forget about it, and realize you're trying to remember it, try and stop yourself from succeeding. Keep that card faaaar from your current thoughts."

He got it?

Once everyone was settled at their stations, cards placed in front of the ludegopuff, Medea moved to stand in the middle of the room, turning around as she spoke to the class. "Alright. Remember. You don't want to think of the card that I'm going to call out. These little creatures are fast both physically and mentally, so you have to be quicker. They may not be able to dive into your mind like a legilimens, but they can read your current thought. Remember...you can think of a different object entirely, or try and think of nothing at all."

She gave them a moment to prepare before, "RED SQUARE!"

OOC: Here we goooo! What happens next is up to your characters. They may think of the red square or they can be successful in keeping the image from their minds. How they do this is up to you. I'm going to go ahead and let you guys RP but the ludegopuff does if you want. If they read your mind and see a "Red Square", feel free to have them jumping at the glass to try and get to that particular card in front of them. Or have them do something weird. Malfunction maybe. xD

Remember, it's OKAY to not be perfect. The rest of the lesson will be going by pretty quickly and, as I mentioned before, we'll be ending it later today. Have fuuuun!

"I was wondering, if you think about something else, that means your attention is on something that's not your card, right? Which is cool for these things." He gestured at the stations with a nod of his head. "But if someone does lego-mency on you, can they see memories that you might not even be thinking about? So like... in that case would thinking about something else mean that you're not clearing your mind but kinda busying it up some more? Oooh, ooh! Or could that actually help against lego-mency because you could make your mind super loud?!" Once, Tobias had complained about being bored to his dad, and his dad had simply told him to try to not think about penguins, and when he was no longer thinking about penguins he would give him something else to do. That had kept Tobias busy for a whole day, and this was the first time he remembered it. "And professor? What if we think about something else and then forget the card and not think about it, but then try and remember the card and start thinking about it again? Because it's really hard to just not try to automatically remember something," Tobias added as he finally lowered his hand. Then he grimaced slightly and rubbed at the side of his head with his palm. This was making his brain hurt. Tobias was certain he was OVERthinking and that that would not help when it was his turn. Lego-mency. Precious Hufflepuff! He could stay next to Forrest in her pocket.
