Creatures were not necessarily a conventional part of divination - although she always tried to keep an open mind when it came to this subject. Maybe she'd really enjoy it!
Then again, she was a Divination snob. So chances were slim.
"Hello Professor," she told her as she sat down on one of the mats close to the front. She wrinkled her nose. Eww. It stunk in here.
Maddie had lots of questions about Divination. For example, could you predict EVERYTHING? Like, did the professor know random things, such as...who was going to chew a piece of bubblegum at six o'clock tonight?! When was the next magical creature going to go to the bathroom, and if it was soon, could she tell the students to get out of the way first?! If she could predict all of these things Maddie wanted to learn how to do that, too! She skipped through the barn and made her way to the professor.
"Hello, Professor Vance! Hello to ALLLL of the creatures in the barn!" she said.
Ohh, they were sitting on mats today? Two to a mat? Well, in that case... Maddie whirled around and looked at her options. In the end, she chose to sit by a girl she'd met while waiting in line for candy on the train. Scarlett could predict lots of things...like when the food trolley was going to run out of candy!
"Mat partner!" she exclaimed, and then she took a seat right next to the older Hufflepuff girl.
