Much to her delight, the students started to arrive. First to enter was the Hufflepuff Prefect. "Good day to you, Ms. Swann. I hope the afternoon finds you well."

"Good afternoon, Professor Sutton," Abra greeted the professor politely, as he stowed his bag under his table and leaned back in his chair to get comfortable.
Kassie smiled as the second Prefect entered the room and headed towards the fireplace. "Good afternoon to you as well, Mr. Botros. It's a pleasure to have you in class."

She had to hand it to Professor Sutton, the woman knew how to create an inviting atmosphere!

"Hello, Professor Sutton," Tina greeted, nodding politely as she passed on her way to one of the empty tables. She set her bag on the floor beside her chair. It was only then that she got a good look around. She was surprised to see only a couple of other students were here so far. Although Tina was always on time to class, she wasn't usually one of the first to arrive. Then the tables and curtain caught her eye. Well, this was an interesting setup! She wondered what it was going to be used for. Was whatever was behind that curtain meant to go on the tables? Consider her curiosity piqued!
"Welcome, Ms. Dantes. Lovely to see you again." The fifth year Ravenclaw was one Kassie would be keeping an eye on. She had a feeling the young lady would do very well in the field of divination.

But still.

Despite it no longer being a necessary NEWT level course for the Hufflepuff, Derf was still taking it. There was just something, you know, kinda relaxing about it. Maybe it was all the smells - which thankfully were less poignant than those Professor Vance had always filled the room with.

"Good day, professor," the seventh year greeted as he made his way over towards an empty round table...only he pivoted last minute and opted to sit beside Abey last second, which meant he took a bit of a stumbled step or two and then nearly fell into his seat. "...hey," he greeted a bit sheepishly. There was still an ache in his chest being near Abey, but it wasn't so prominent these days. But he missed spending time with him like they used to. Especially after recent developments which, with perspective and much self reflection, had Derf feeling generally lighter on his feet.

Did the sage smell have anything to do with the curtains and what was behind them? In general, Derf knew that sage...or something LIKE sage that was literally called 'seer's sage' was used to cleanse and purify divination materials like tarot cards and spirits and stuff.

"Ah, the Head Boy has arrived. Welcome, welcome, Mr. Ashburry-Hawthorne." She watched, eyes widening, as the young man sort of stumbled. "Please do be careful. I don't want to have to call the healer before we even start class." She gave him a little wink and lightly exhaled with relief when Derf appeared to have caught himself before crashing into anything.

Making her way up the Divination steps she looked inside before entering. The room smelled interesting enough, so she headed fully in and took a seat at one of the round tables. "Hello Professor" she cheerfully said while she unpacked her bag and got ready for the lesson.

Her nose crinkled a little though as some more of the scent went strongly into it.

"Aaaaachhhuuu"

"Oh goodness, excuse me" She didn't mean to sneeze so loudly and she was pink in the cheeks wondering if it was as loud as it was in her head.

"Welcome, Ms. McCarthy." Kassie's attention was on the door when she heard the loud sneeze. Her eyes immediately feel upon the third year. "It's quite alright. Sage tends to tickle the nose at times."

She liked classes like this in this sort of weather. The first year just loved the smell and sound of a crackling fire, it was evident on her face.
Kassie just loved first year students in her class. They were little balls of potential with years a head to take in all she had to give. "Good afternoon, Ms. Phillips."

The strange part is, she trusts Fletcher but not her. She started feeling tense and a bit sweaty as she continued walking and not saying anything to anyone. Her vision kind of went fuzzy.

SAM'S POV
---
On the outside, Skyler looked pretty normal, maybe a bit more quiet then the others, but she looked normal. In the inside however, Sam had taken over. He unclenched their fists and continued to walk to an empty chair.
"Hey Professor, how's it going?" He asked. His voice came out as an American boy in his late teens, maybe seventeen or nineteen. He sat in a chair and leaned back in his chair letting it balance on the two back legs.

Kassie smiled as the last of her class entered the room. "Welcome." She greeted as she made her way towards the front by the curtains and away from the warm fire.


Kassie held her hands together and glanced around the room. After seeing that she had most everyone's attention, she began. "Today we are going to talk about pendulum divination. Pendulum divination is one of the easiest, and most portable, forms of divination. It's very helpful because you can keep one on you at all times to help answer yes/no questions throughout the day."

She reached into her pocket and pulled out her pendulum, but kept it closed inside her left hand. "All you need are a few basic supplies such as a crystal or gemstone, wire or string, and a chain or strip of leather to hang it from." Her eyes scanned the room, checking for blank stares or signs of confusion. "Before we go any further, can anyone name a type of crystal or gemstone that could be used as your pendulum weight? If you know why it would make a good choice, please feel free to share that as well."



OOC: Class has started. The question is to name one type of crystal or gemstone that could be used as the pendulum weight. Feel free to add why. If you are just now joining us, please feel free to jump in as if your charrie has been here the entire time, or IC consequences if you want to post being late. Catch up posts are always welcome. Class will continue in about 24 hours.
