Why her Professor was looking at her like that was quite puzzling. It made Nina highly skeptical. There wasn’t much time to dwell on this however, because she had immediately busied herself by sorting through her supplies. Pulling out each item and neatly placing it atop her desk. Quill. Ink. Parchment. The likes. As she adjusted her ink pot’s placement on the very left side of her table, she drew her gaze back up, noticing Missa and her ever-present smile. She gave the girl a polite grin in return, though it all felt slightly uncomfortable. If Nina were slightly less in-tune with her surroundings, she may have thought nothing of it. But she knew better than to assume the best and Missa was quite friendly with Keenan Burton. "Morning Missa," she'd rather play dumb. Mhm.

Nina was quite eager to learn something new, but caught herself engaging rather immediately. She quickly corrected her demeanor, needing to look mildly disinterested at all times. Lest she risk someone like Eloise taking notice of her delight.

Their Professor commanded the room rather elegantly, an admirable quality for a Professor to possess. It made paying attention a painless task. The questions posed were also rather interesting ones. There were most probably an infinite amount of uses for the subject. Nina’s immediate thought were along the same vein as what the Ravenclaw boy (Dorian) had just shared. When the mathematical system first arose it was tied to combat, though later the Chaldean’s would develop their own systems to gain insight on the universe at large.

While the Slytherin wasn’t entirely keen on some of the less stable uses for the subject, she appreciated it for the more practical uses. Curse-breaking, for example. Though this was perhaps an area where Arithmancy toyed with Defense Against the Dark Arts, dipping into an ever expanding territory where the two subjects were not entirely on their own. She imagined that curse-breaking would be much like puzzle-solving, with a higher risk, of course.

But instead of voicing any of her thoughts, the fourth year simply began noting them down alongside some of the answers her classmates gave (only the ones that weren’t entirely obvious— Classic Castillo Eye-Roll™).
