Oh.
They were talking about
literal itchiness.
The realization had Avalon feeling a bit stupid. She thought they were talking about the general feeling of being itchy—like feeling restless or worried about something. How in the world did physical itchiness connect to Divination? At least she could always count on this class to teach her something new.
She pulled out a piece of parchment, thinking back to yesterday when she awoke in the middle of the night to a crawly feeling on her leg. Come to find out, there had been a spider on her ankle. Normally, Avalon would have shrieked in horror, but she had gotten used to the horrid living conditions in the Room. The spider was the least of her worries.
Quote:
I feel a little itchy right now on my head, actually.
Perhaps it was just because she was thinking about the spider, but she felt the top of her head start to itch. She tossed her hair behind her back as she made her way to the front to collect some balloons.
