She mentioned emptying his mind, so he decided to ask her a question. How do you empty your mind, when you can't get something off of it? I really want to be good at divination. It's such a cool thing to do. I know muggles don't believe it. Even many witches and wizards think it's rubbish. I believe though. I think this is the most amazing class at Hogwarts. I especially like the way you've changed things since you came in. Plus, your classroom was nearly always the warmest one last term.
Cassie sat listening to Ian she couldn't help but smile. "Yellow mist is good. Any reaction with the Crystal ball is good. This is an advance form and I might have jumped a bit ahead." She felt bad for that and was thinking about changing her next lessons because of it. Maybe they weren't as ready as she thought. "You'll get it though, just keep practicing." She knew if he was working so hard it was only a matter of time.

"Well that takes practice. The mind is a hard thing to clear and it takes time to really do it. If something is really bothering you though I find it nice to write it down. I write out my thoughts on parchment and then burn it if I don't want anyone else to see. Other ways would be to take a walk, listen to some music, or even meditate." She found those ways very reliable as well.

He was just so sweet. "That's great that you think so Ian. People just don't give Divination a chance to understand it. When things are hard to understand people just jump to calling it wrong. I know you do a great job! You work really so I know you will be great!" He was getting encouraging snaps for sure!

"Ahh--but you're so nice--I bet you have tons of friends!" she said with a nod. "This is only your second year here?" she asked curiously. She seemed to be MADE for teaching, though? "What else can a seer do? With ...the sight?" Besides passing it on to the YOUTH.

And then Professor Morgan got a GRIN. "I--I hope so." She said, sipping on her hot chocolate. "Maybe by the time I graduate--I'll be really good--" hehe. Wouldn't that be something? Oh her Mam would LOVE that and just think it was the coolest thing ever. Muggles were so cute.

Aaaand yeah. She confirmed what Eden already thought--that it would be hard. SIGH. "I will try. But I can't make any promises." She said and she just sipped on the yummy drink some more. "Thanks for...speaking with me. You're really nice, professor." BROWN NOSING, YES? Hehe. She smiled and tapped her fingers on the mug gently. "I need to see the Serenity Room for myself--and practice. "
Cassie chuckled a bit, it was always interesting on what kind of response her animal gift would get. "I can, I have since I was a little girl. It's always been a fun gift." She always enjoyed being able to know what was going on with her creature friends. No matter what others had thought of it while she was at school. "Oh.. I had a few, but I bet you do as well." She had spent a lot of time alone while a student, but it was mostly her own reasons why. "Yes this is my second year here. Does it show?" Maybe it did, especially doing the scrying to soon. "Seers can do different things, some are better at figuring out past reasoning, others can see future events, there are many different talents that a seer can possess."

You certainly can be good at anything you put your mind too. Hard work does not go unnoticed." She remembered working hard in all her classes, but especially in Divination. Sipping her drink she smiled, "Thank you sooo much Eden that's super sweet of you, but I wouldn't call it nice, just trying to do my best as a professor." She always loved when her students visited. [B] "The Room of Serenity is a wonderful place to practice. Anything you would need for Divination is there. You are welcome in anytime.
