And what was with Angel, though? O__O

The Hufflepuff was impressed with his Professor's 'sight'. She could actually sense Bob? That was SUPER cool! He tilted his head at her. He was confused. Why was she accusing them like that? He never thought she would like that though. Maybe she was feeling the pressure of loosing Bob.

Okaaaay, so no Plastromancy? Alrightey then. But Adi did like the lowered lights. He liked eerie shadows casting about. Anwayyyy, back to Cassie's question. He raised his hand. "It's a method used to find offenders in a criminal act. That's what you meant when you said we'll find Bob another way...'' Ehh, that made sense but Adi was sure none of his classmates had the turtle.

His curiosity was piqued and he became more excited than fearful when he'd heard the Professor scream. What a sound it was. He had not heretofore met another like it or known that sound had such power of resonance.

The lights were back on and he quickly let go of Beverly Wayne. Also, the ball had slowed to a full and complete stop. Bob was outty.



Accusations were flying and he didn't find them unjust or illogical. Bob was somewhere in this room. And one of these students had him. Maybe an animal lover who didn't trust that Bob would not be used in someway or another for Plastromancy. He looked around at mostly the witches in the room...'Cept Bev. If it wasn't a dragon she wasn't very likely to give a murtlaps bottom about it.

He could think of several ways of retrieving the turtle. Starting to search all dark spaces in the room for starts, maybe even summoning the turtle, but it was far more exciting to watch a courtroom drama so he left that be and raised a hand to add to the answers given by the class. "It's a very old practice. Soom muggles thought they knew how it wehrked and would actually use it to determine who was guilty or innocent in early forms of joostuss."

Well, she didn't have a purse so that would be one less thing to search. Although, she really felt this whole thing was silly. Now, if a unicorn had gone missing then it would be wise to hog tie AJ until you found it because she would be totally guilty. But this was a turtle. Not something she was willing to stick her neck on the line for. She knew how to choose her battles.

Cassie had them there. The whole pet rock thing was pretty silly, but AJ wasn't one to be judgy. Everybody had their things. "What if you can still feel him because he hasn't been a snake snack yet?" Not trying to freak anybody out buuuut maybe they should be trying a bit harder to save Bob's life. Yeah? If AJ was going to go around snatching up rocks and turtles she was going to have a good time with it. If you snarfed them down right away... well, where was the fun in that? Savoring the moment. That was what she was talking about.

It was dark again. Only this time she could still see. This was getting interesting again. "Professor, can we call on the spirits to help locate Bob?" What? She was totes setting the mood for that.

Coscinomancy? Uh, no.

"Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me..." Yup, the professor had lost her marbles. But, could they for real call on the spirits?

Angel raised her hand. "Professor it uses a suspended sieve doesn't it." Angel wasn't sure and her mind was blank with what was going on with Bob. "It's too help you decide who is the culprit right?"

Oh, now it was a snake? So scaaary. Beverly Wayne was unimpressed. The only snake they should worry about was right here, with a Cutty Mordaunt who had been clinging to her moments ago. They boy was smart though 'cause nothing would get pass her and hurt her friend, just FYI. Her patience was running low, though.

Coscinomancy.

Her eyes narrowed. "This is all part of the lesson," she whispered low enough so only Cutty could hear her. This was an act. Had Morgan been frightened for Bob's safety then she wouldn't be drinking tea. At least, Beverly wouldn't. She'd be blasting walls for her creatures.

Her hand went up into the air. "A tool--a sieve is used to perform this form of divination. According to some, if the sieve rotated at the sound of the accused person's name, they were guilty of whatever crime." Which is redundant. "Tongs or shears were also used, but in different manners."

Morgan had Bob.

She needed a twin or a really good partner in crime. Wait she has one of those already.

That was the thing with twins they looked alike. Maybe one of them did it, or both? But she wasn't going to make any accusations. That was what made you look guilty. Cinna couldn't help but to laugh when Cassie said that to Kace. Maybe he did do it.

Oh... Coscinomancy? Oh she knew this one. Finding out a thief or proving someone's guilt. "Professor don't you use a sieve or scissors. Which rotate toward the guilty party or person in question."
