Ducking her head once again, she muttered a small apology, listening to the examples of flight patterns listed.

...They got to draw? Wicked awesome-sauce with pretzles!

With new-found enthusiasm, Charner set to work on her piece. A puzzled frown on how to get the perspective of the flight patterns right was set into her expression the entire time. There was a lot of drawing, erasing, drawing and erasing again. She even abandoned the flight pattern at one point to fuss with drawing the bird it represented. Probably not the best use of her time, but then she was one to do the fun things first. With a few minutes to spare, she scribbled down the rest of the flight pattern and lay her parchment on her desk.

He first drew some lines that went into a circling spiral and then added several birds to indicate which direction the birds were going. It wasn't the best sketch ever, but he only had a limited amount of time to do it, so he was very happy with it. It was supposed to depict a circling flight pattern, so hopefully he had executed that correctly.

Drawing for Divination, that is.

Nora took a piece of parchment and her quill and decided to draw the V flight pattern, since it wasn't that complicated and messed up.



There. All done.

He did say to draw after doing a little research...

Kurumi flipped through her Divination book until she found what she was looking for. Bouncing, that was easy enough to draw, right? The only complicated part was that they flapped their wings at certain points and glided at others. After several minutes of checking the invisible clock on the wall to see how much time she had left, Kurumi leaned back in her seat having completed her drawing.

"Thank you," she whispered to her textbook. It was a rule after all.

It sort of took her a while, since she had to form each and every line so slowly, but after a while, she'd finally depicted what she hoped looked like the up and down flight pattern of a bird.

The almost fourteen years old grabbed a parchment and a color-changing ink and started drawing... if only Enya was here to do this for her, she wasn't that much of an artist really. Besides drawing a bird's flight pattern wasn't that easy. She'd made up her mind to draw the gliding one. That was a pattern, right? Birds glides and then instead of flapping their wings, they use other ways to alternate their paths and maintain their altitude, her drawing demonstrated the obstruction lift.

Why were they drawing birds?

She pulled out her supplies, flipped through the book for her patronus, and took more care than she did in transfiguration in drawing the bird's flight patterns. It was much easier when the object she was drawing on wasn't giggling.

Grabbing her parchment and quill, she immediately started.


There you go.
