Like Divination; she understood the underlying interpretations but it was getting to the interpretation that was slightly foggy because most of the divining methods weren't concrete. But anyone who could decipher the methods, she totally had respect for.

Glancing down at her own notes, as Lux did the same, Tia added a few things as well:

SPOILER!!: Tia's notes

Small gurgles close together - Worried about something in the future.
Quiet/no sounds - Calm, Stress free near future, good things to come.

Lux clearly is in for a more relaxed year, which given that she just completed major wizarding exams, it totally makes sense for her to take things easy in her sixth year. Although I'd imagine she might be worried about her future - in terms of graduating Hogwarts in less than two years and what that holds in terms of her perspective career options, her relationship with her boyfriend and such. But given her gastric noises fell silent, I think we can expect great things from Miss Lux. Good things.


She slid her notes into her bag, and laughed at what Lux said about shooting each other into the air. "Hah! You sure? I mean however will you learn to apparate? Isn't apparition supposed to be just like vanishing into thin air ..."
Hmmm, that was a very good point. She herself had been very stressed when it came to studying for her OWLs. Some subjects had been worse than others. Now Lux would have NEWTs to worry about, but that wouldn't be until next year so she had time to relax. "What classes make you the most nervous? And do you have any idea what you want to do for a career?" Both good questions in her mind and even though it wasn't NECESSARY to have a job planned out at this stage, it could be good to have some idea which areas to focus on.

Oooh, apparation came up. That was a good point Tia made, but it wasn't as if Lux hadn't experienced it before. "It's definitely a strange feeling and not my favourite by any means..." Yep, she was not a huge fan of the process. "But I think it's important to know how to do it if needed, and I wouldn't want to rely on others every time." Besides, the whole process was over with pretty quickly, so that was a plus. "Mostly, I just want to learn how to drive." Now THAT she was excited about!!
