These students were so sweet what with saying thank you and all that! Nodding at them each, she just hoped they weren't going to give the next professor a headache from the sugar rush. But a little bit of sugar wouldn't hurt and might give them just the amount of 'pick-me-up' they needed.

"Very well then, you all are dismissed when you've finished with your ice cream. Don't forget to copy the homework down." Fina said as she flicked her wand and the homework appeared on the board. "If you need inspiration or just a quiet place to think, or even if you want to research more in-depth Arithmancy numbers, then I encourage you all to drop by the White Jasmine Chamber in this corridor."

1a. What are underlying characteristics of people who fall under this number?

2. There has been much talk for the number seven being lucky. Yes it is a mystical number, but what makes this number (or any for that matter!) lucky or unlucky?

3. We know from history that Voldemort split his soul into seven parts. We also know that all seven parts were destroyed. Do you think it would have made a difference if he had spared his soul or made 9 horcruxes? 9 for completion and universal oneness? What do you believe might be the advantages and disadvantages to using 'lucky, magical number seven'?

Bonus Activity:
Research to find a character in the Harry Potter canon world who have one of their core numbers as a 2 or 7. Explain what this number means for them. Show any work completed for maximum credit.

Due by 11:59pm EST, Thursday October 28th ~~that's SIX WEEKS away! plenty of time to do this assignment ;D~~

ooc: gonna leave the thread open for another day or so for y'all to RP <333
