Strange boy, that one, but sweet.<snip>
The wind began to pick up a tiny bit and blew Professor Elwood's hair into her face which she shoved back with a swipe of her hand. The students were beginning to pile in around her, sitting and standing, but they didn't seem to the last to arrive.
"Hello everyone, we will be beginning shortly but we need to wait for the rest of your classmates to join us before heading into the forest." She nodded slowly and then thought of a brilliant idea to keep them busy. "While we wait, you should all try to find something in the clouds. Shapes in them are always fun to look at." Not to mention there was a form of Divination dedicated to that stuff.
Find something in the clouds? Vicker's eyes rolled up to see what he can make out of the sky. He finds.... that there could be some rainshowers later tonight or early tomorrow morning? He presses his lips together. He doesnt think thats what what the Professor is looking for...
SPOILER!!: Elijah xD

Her own thoughts it seemed. In fact, she deemed downright melancholic. Elijah wasn't sure if it would be a good idea to go over there comfort her or not since, ya know, at the end of the day emotional girls could be harrrdddd work. Or maybe she was still nervous to be around him after Runes?
<snip>
Elijah had been distracted staring at Kurmui, trying to work out what was going on with her when someone collided with him. He was two seconds away from snapping at them when he realised it had been Vickers. "Vee! My bro!" he exclaimed, pleased to see the 'Claw and taking him in a big BRO hug.
"You do realise you have glasses, Vee, right? They are supposed to help you see. Ya know, so that you don't end up walking into people," he teased. "What has you all distracted anyway?"
And then he grinned.
"Is it a gggggirrrrrrllll? Is it that Gryffie over there who is seeing elephants? She's kinda cute... maybe if she'd brush her hair a little more. WHO IS IT?!" This was fun. Why couldn't he help a bro out? Sure Vee was nowhere NEAR as attractive as him, but Elijah had ALL these requests constantly from girls (sorta... never), so he should really help out his best bud, yes?
The enjoyment he was having at poking fun of Vee and his lady crush (if he even had one) was briefly stopped as his eyes glanced over Kurumi again in the sea of Vickers' potential bachelorettes. "Hey Vee," he whispered to his Claw friend, "Do you know what's up with Kurumi?"
Vickers tilted on his leg a bit as Elijah pulled him into a Bro!Hug, awkwardly grinning and a good-natured clasp on the Hufflepuff's shoulder in return. Oh wait glasses?
"They're reading glasses man..." he murmured
"...Dont really need glasses just to walk around." although maybe Elijah had a point.
But then his eyes grew large when Elijah blurted out something about girls
in front of all these people. He SHUSHED him in panic and tugged at the other boy's robes sleeves, trying to.... pull him away?... hide behind him?.... get him to shut up?-- yeah one of those-- and whispered back urgently
"Nobody nobody..." although those bright blue eyes steals another glance at the Professor's direction. Merlin he hoped she didnt hear that. But at the mention of a
Gryffindor Vicker's gaze shifted immediately to the brunette Prefect. She didnt look like she was talking about elephants to him. Heck it didnt look like she was in the mood for this class period. Just then Elijah whispers asking about Kurumi. He stared at her
a little too long before turning to the Curly!Puff and whispering back
"I dunno... its that time of the month?" Shruuuuuggg.
SPOILER!!: Elwood

Waving and nodding at the rest of the class as they arrived to their little meeting place, Professor Elwood finally stood, gesturing for those on the ground with her to do the same. "Welcome everyone to your third Divination Lesson of the term. As you've noticed I decided to change the venue of our lesson, partly because of the weather but mainly because I had a change of mind on the subject we would be learning about today. Now that everyone is here we can head on into the forest. Is everyone ready?" She chirped excitedly. This would be fun.
Not really waiting to see if anyone wasn't ready, Callie stepped into the shady line of trees and disappeared, hopefully a line of students would be following her in. As the class moved further in, the sunlight that had been present out in the open slowly dwindled, leaving just enough light to see. There were branches snapping nearby and the scuttling of small creatures in the trees and in the bushes. Probably just squirrels...
"Alright everyone there is no immediate danger... well I've personally never really been in here before but Mr. Murdoch and Professor Williamson say that we should be fine. Although it would be smart to keep our wands out and ready just incase. Older students please spread yourselves out, I've never been the greatest at defensive magic." she grinned and continued to trapse through the undergrowth. Really how different could these woods be than the ones at her childhood home in upstate New York?
"Again, no worry though."
After walking for about ten minutes, the Professor led them into a small clearing still shaded by trees but free of rocks and tree trunks. "Here we are. Everyone file in." She found a spot on the ground and took a seat. "Does anyone know what type of Divination we could be studying here in the forest?"
So now they were moving into the forest, and in a carefree way he observed. This wasnt sitting too well with him, an instinctively drew out his wand. Initially he wanted to draw close to the Professor
to protect her but she had called out for the older students to fan out and protect the group. Errr right... he'll fan out-- towards her direction.
Then they reached a clearing. Was this the same clearing they were in when they were at Professor Bellaire's class? He was still trying to figure it out when the Professor asked about what they could be studying today. What
was so important that they need to be
in the Forbidden Forest and not in the classroom? A tentative hand goes up
"Are we here today to take a first hand look at Tree Spirits Professor and the kind of trees they watch over?"
