Ves was being super focused and looking around, smiling at all the craziness. Fun lesson was starting out fun...Good thing about that, too...she wasn't thinking about 'NUMBERS' so much...or how bad she'd been at Arithmancy back in France.
...and having grown up in the 'muggle world' as it was called...
Hitchhiker's Guide reference!! She LOVED those books...The smaller Slytherin boy? Was that a Snake on his robes?...Yes, he got a wide grin.
SPOILER!!: Professor French!

FOR HOMEWORK - you must complete the calculations from this warm up - if the young gentleman [west 0d3ssa] will be so kind as to REVEAL the invisible number and it's multiplier, yes please okay? And INTERPRET it's m3aning! What did this random number MEAN? What can you GLEAN from the NUMB3R we randomly CREATED in Ar1thmancy ONE class?? Okay yes thanks."

With the warm up and homework out of the way, it was now time for the lesson to ACTUALLY begin.
"As everyone knows, Arithmancy was first used by the Huns in the year 1030. They were also responsible for inventing bowling and the two - Arithmancy and Bowling - are often ONE and the same. More on that later yes okay? Okay. Today TWODAY we will be focusing on how to INTERPRET numbers that YOU YOURSELF YOU okay can generate."
TWODAY, yes okay.
"Let's begin with YOU telling M3 how much and what you know about FACIAL hair? B3ARDS to be exact, okay yes. Please be precise. B3ARDS."
Was...........he serious? Ves couldn't tell...
Bowling, though...That was something she grew up with...and HUNS...like from Mulan, right? See? There were answers in Disney.
Cracking her notebook open...(Not her observation notebook...but the one she'd set aside for Arithmancy)...she jotted down the homework. It was nice of him to go ahead and give it to them. Just so they didn't have to wonder and worry if there would actually be an assignment later on before leaving. Ves liked that very much...
...and then he was asking about facial hair. Naturally Mo WOULD say that, wouldn't he?
Feeling rather comfortable...she raised her hand and provided an actual answer...One that was more than a few words...and there was SMILING. She liked this Professor even if he'd been rather rude and called people 'dumb as socks'...
"They make guys look older...'Adult' older...and they don't look too comfortable, either. Don't they itch bad?"
Also...for Alexa...because Ves knew her well enough...and she was trying to help.
"Woman can grow beards...and mustaches."
