'An Earth person?' he thought, 'why did I just say that.' He blushed and hoped Ella didn't think he was a complete dork.
"Brilliant. Oval it is." She was glad he agreed because it was much easier to set this down in writing when you had a second opinion to back yours up, yeah?
"So my hand is a Water hand, then. Long, thin fingers and an oval palm." Awesome. Now they could figure out Asher's.
The sixteen year old smiled at the first year before observing his hand curiously.
"That's okay. My little brother's are like that too. He likes to climb trees." Which meant lots of scrapes but she supposed that lots of boys had those. Some girls too.
"An earth person, huh?" What were earth hands meant to look like again? The blonde glanced at her notes to double check, oblivious to the blushing.
"I think...you might be right, Asher." Beam.
"Squarish palms and short fingers, you've got those." Nodnod. She then ran her finger gently over the lines on his palm, trying to tell whether they'd be considered deep or not.
"I suppose these are deep lines as well," She offered after a minute.
"So...now we'll need to record our findings, yeah?"
Ella pulled a piece of fresh parchment towards her and got her quill ready. She then began to write.
