Default Divination Lesson 1 - Fingerlingsssssssss

On this particular Friday afternoon just after lunch, around 1.00 pm are you going out into the bright October sun for a Divination lesson in the Courtyard. All though the temperatures are a bit on the chilly side, Professor Vance thinks the students will endure if they've just dressed sensibly.

As you step into the Courtyard that is basking in the warm October afternoon sunlight you'll see that Professor Vance has set up a little outdoor classroom with the usual round class tables and chairs with extra warm cushions in a half circle facing towards the blackboard in close proximity to the Courtyard fountain. On each round table a large collection of hand mirrors, scented oil bottles and a large cauldron full of water can be found.

Professor Vance can be seen leaning casually against the side of the blackboard with a steaming floral tea cup of strawberry tea in her hands waiting for her students to arrive.

Come in, find a seat and make yourselves comfortable and we'll begin shortly!


Class Progression:
Greetings + Question 1
Answers + Mini activity
Two answers + Main activity

Juni was sitting in her own little world as she sat quietly, waiting for the lesson to start. Of course she grinned as soon as she seen a certain Slytherin showed up in the courtyard classroom… for lack of a better description.

She gave him a little wave, as he made his way over next to her. ’Hey.” She whispered. She was still wondering about what they were going to do with the mirrors. Juni bust out into a giggle. She didn’t mean to laugh out that loud but she really couldn’t help it. ”I’m pretty sure that the only thing chicken wing bones could predict was that you enjoyed your meal.” She shook her head.

This boy all he could think about was food, and Juni was quite okay with that.

Since lunch had just been finished and Natalie had a full tummy, she was in a rather good mood as she made her way outside to Divination class. And she was in an even better mood because she didn't have to walk up a million stairs just to get to the divination tower! It was outside today! It was a bit chilly, but.. no stairs!

Finding Jessa and Cam, Natalie plopped down by them, scooting closer to Cam for some warmth because that Autumn breeze was rolling through. "Hi, guys," she greeted with a smile as she set her bag down. She did hear Slate's comment about reading chicken wing bones and... resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

Boys.

She was a little torn really. Bel liked lessons to be outdoors, but it was so COLD in Scotland that if you did go out for a class, you couldn't just BE, you had to wrap up in lots of layers. Or she did anyway.

Note to self to find out if there's a spell to stop wool itching.

Bundled up, Bel considered where to sit and opted for the spot that was most sheltered by people already seated. Yup. Time to hunker down.

And to think, it wasn't even winter yet.

"Hello professor." Brrrrrr. She could do with some tea herself, actually.

Divination...maybe that would predict whether she would actually find a way to talk to and meet people. But really, she didn't believe in fate, so why Night Dixon found herself in the Scotland cold again was beyond her. But whatever. Let's just get it over with. Maybe she'd actually get something out of the class.

Nathan groggily walked out to the courtyard, a little annoyed that he had to shield his eyes from the sun's glare and the cold at the same time. He pulled his robes tighter around his body. Already wishing they could have their classes inside where its warm and a desk to lay his head on. "Morning professor..."he muttered under his breath.

Divination wasn't one of Isabel's favourite lessons by any means, but it was easy enough and she DID like the teacher. That in itself was enough to make it bearable.

"Hello, Professor," she said with a smile as she walked in and took a seat. She was curious to see what they would be learning about today.

Divinations class…Melbourne grinned as she made her way outside to the courtyard for Professor Vance’s class.. The class was fun even if she didn’t always understand it. Glancing around she grinned at everyone in the room.

Oh…looooook little Emmalyn was there.

”Hey Emmalyn” she waved as she walked over to an empty table and sat down.. ”hey Isabel” she waved over to the blonde Gryffindor girl before looking over to Professor Vance.

”Hey Professor Vance – are you having a nice day?” she asked happily.

Vi was feeling a little bit better about the whole career choices search today. Perhaps she was feeling so good because she had had a big cup of coffee before coming here and had even packed a travel mug filled with tea. Hehe. Perfect. In fact, there was even almost a skip to her step as she headed towards the Courtyard. It was time to head out and enjoy the sunshine on the chilly October day. Fortunately today wasn't too chilly since the sun was out.

"Hello Professor Vance! How are you?" she asked with a grin before taking a seat near Isabelle and Mel. Merlin. Open seats near fellow Lions- how cool! She plopped her bag down on the ground and then took a seat. "What's going on?" she asked the two of them. "Ready for Halloween?"

Divination was her favorite class. She's looking forward to attend this class as soon as she back to Hogwarts. And she's very happy that Professor Vance decided to do the class outside, that mean she doesn't have to deal with a lot of stairs today. Best day ever! Yet.

The red hair made her way toward the courtyard where she saw little outdoor classroom Professor Vance set up for them. "Hello, Professor. I hope you're doing well today." She gave her a polite nod before she went to sit next to Nathan. "Hi. You don't look so good." Was it because the weather?

Divination being outside wasn’t exactly normal. Not in Stasya’s opinion, or the fact it was during the day. Although, if she really thought about it, Astronomy lessons being during the day would be weirder. Not that it really mattered, since she doubted that Professor Kennedy would have considered an afternoon Astronomy lesson. She’d shown up from the completely opposite direction of the others, anyway. Nobody had said she absolutely had to eat lunch in the Great Hall, so she’d taken her food out to the barns to eat with the creatures. That and maybe had slipped a few bits of said lunch to some of said creatures, but that had only been because they’d asked. It wasn’t like she could deny them.

The presence of the basic classroom layout out in the courtyard had surprised her, though, and she’d stopped for a moment in the outside entrance before she finally kept walking over. At least she hadn’t been the first one to arrive. “Good afternoon Professor Vance,” she greeted the professor as she tried to decide where to sit. Past terms she’d sat with Derf and Jessa and Abey and Emmeline, but she’d only given each of them, plus Bel, a grin as she made a beeline over to the table where Liv was seated. Nobody minded, did they?

No matter how much Shera liked Professor Vance, she would be lying if she even tried to claim that she like divination.

It didn't make sense to her. She didn't understand what she was meant to feel. She definitely didn't have a gift for divination. Buuuutttt... Professor Vance was lovely and she did love being able to plop down on the pillows. That in mind, she walked into the room managing to beam at the Professor as she did.

"Morning... Afternoon? Um... Hey Professor Vance," she stuttered over her introduction, but while it had subdued her for all but a moment she had perked up again immediately. "I love your teacup, what kind of tea are you drinking today?"

Because that would give her ideas on what to request from the house elves, but that was another point all together. With hellos done, she dropped cross legged to the ground on a pillow and waited for the class to begin.

Even though Divination didn't make to much sense to her right now, perhaps it would someday. The professor was always nice and the lessons were generally calming but that didn't mean she always understand all that was going on in them. Maybe it was her age or that she just wasn't as fully interested in the subject to grasp it all. Either way, Rylee attended the lessons and always did the work to the best of her abilities.

Getting to have a lesson outside in the courtyard was a nice little change of pace that the eleven year old welcomed fully. Plus it was a Friday afternoon which meant she was almost free for a weekend full of exploring! "Good afternoon, Professor!" Rylee greeted warmly waving. A quick glance around at the tables lead her to follow her feet right over to a familiar face. "Hi, Shera!" Sitting herself down on one of the comfy pillows set up on a chair. "I wonder what we'll be doing today, do you think we'll get to work together?" Working with a partner was always fun.

The autumn weather was perfect for a lesson outside and the little badger was excited. She didn't quite understand Divination... Surely some students would be more inclined to it? Or more talented. It wasn't something people talked about at home.
However, she liked Professor Vance, with her funny tea drinking habits. To Mara, she resembled a soothing presence.
"Good afternoon, Professor Vance." She greeted the teacher joyfully. She grabbed at seat alone at the front of the improvised classroom and adjusted her robes, staring at the blackboard.

Her quietness lasted only a second, and she quickly pulled her quill, along with parchment from her bag, while her wand rested carefully on the table. Afterwards, she took a quick glance around and greeted some fellow Hufflepuffs she would occasionally encounter in the Common Room.

Divination... The ability to divine or foresee happenings that have not yet come to pass.. Also... A load of Hippogriff poo, but here Miranda was, walking out into the courtyard.. Mmmm Chilly.. Casts a warming charm over herself as she greets the professor with a polite smile and and ' Hi, how are ya?'

Good afternoon, Professor.. This looks interesting.. Can't wait to "see" what you've got in store for us today..", Randa smiled with a wink on the word see.. Yup..
Ms. Blaze could be witty sometimes..

Giggling to herself she turned to find the perfect pillow to plop her already tired self onto. After doing so she pulled her book she liked to read whilst waiting for lessons to begin, from her bag and into it shoved her attention.

Kye maaay have overdone lunch, but hey story of her life, right? These Feasts would be the death of her, and that was okay. Oh the joy at not having to walk all the way up to the Divination Tower for today's lesson!

Kye made her way through to the courtyard where she found a replica of the classroom waiting for her.

"Hello, Professor Vance," Kye greeted, with a nod and smile to her Head of House.


She picked a table and took a seat, letting her food settle was a good idea.

dream until your • dreams come true ~ Human pygmy puff

It was a beautiful day and Jessi was happy to having class outside. She was in such a good mood, she almost skipped to Divination class. Somehow she managed to contain herself. I mean she was a first year, but she didn’t have to flaunt it.

When she arrived at the courtyard, Jessi saw that there were already plenty of students present. “Hello Professor”, she said with her usual enthusiasm. As she looked around for a seat, she also took a moment to notice which of her classmates had already arrived. Rylee and Daniel got waves. So did her prefect Vi and her Potions angel Skylar. Finally, Jessi found a seat, plopped down in it and began to organize her materials for class. She would be ready, when the professor said go.

Sometimes, the classes that happen just right after lunch time made Vivian a little bit sleepy. It felt like the prime time to be heading to bed after enjoying a nice meal at times, y'know? But at least she was awake enough to drag herself to Divination class with a sweater over her clothes. The weather was pretty great to be outside, but it was still rather chilly.

And it wasn't all the time they spent classes outside, so Vivian felt it was necessary to make the most out of it today. "Good afternoon, Professor Vance," the prefect greeted her head of house with a smile before joining the rest of the class. She settled for a seat beside Vi and gave the Gryffindor a light nudge to mark her arrival. "Hi, I hope you don't mind me taking this seat." Or, at least she hoped Tenacius wouldn't mind.

How’s this for a switch-up? A glass on the grounds instead of in one of the tall towers of the castle. Sure it wasn’t the first time but it was soemthing that didn’t occur all that often and while it was a little nippy, Cass was grateful for the more openess of the courtyard versus the classroom. She still had a coat and gloves on to keep the coolness out so she could concentrate on whatever they were to be learning about for this lesson. That and the sun that still managed to be out should be plenty good in that department.

Slipping out into the courtyard, she couldn’t help but notice that the divination classroom seemed to be transported into its new location. What with all the round tables like usual and chairs and cushions and blackboard greeting her. “Good afternoon, Professor Vance,” she greeted the woman before taking her seat at one of the tables. “Hey,” she greeted her table mates with a smile as she settled herself down and took out her supplies for notes.

Now to see what was to come.

"You professors and your tea." This was said with a pretty smile as she carefully untwisted the scarf from about her slender neck. "Hello, Professor Vance. How are you on this lovely day?"
Time trickled by and when it got nearer to 1.oo pm the students started to arrive. First to step over the invisible threshold to the classroom was Olivia Phillips. Turning her gaze to her Laurel laughed "Hello Olivia, well many of us are a bit batty about our tea. Tea is just a wonderful beverage." Not that she didn't drink other things. "I'm feeling splendid, thank you for asking. How are you dear?"

"Hi Liv" Since it was kind of rude to ignore her.

Still smiling, the girl then went to find herself a seat.
Next student to was Harriet of the badgers. Smiling over at the sixth year she greeted. "Good afternoon Hattie!"

"I'm Sorry i'm...." late?

The Ravenclaw checked the outdoor classroom and blinked when he was one of the first. "Are you kidding me?!" he shouted irritated that he was here as one of the first. Did he just run for nothing?!

"Sorry about that, Professor" he apologised as he finally noticed her leaning against the side of the blackboard and he took a random seat with a grumble.
The next students practically bumbled his way into her outdoor classroom shouting so loud that Laurel in surprise almost spilled out all her tea. Eying the claw boy she reprimanded. "There is no need for shouting in my class Dorian." Shaking her head she pulled her wand out to refill her teacup. As he apologized for his action Professor Vance shot him a smile."Apology accepted Dorian. What brought on the irritation?"

Taking a big sip of her refilled tea cup Laurel waved and smiled to Farah of the badgers as the fourth came in. "Hello Farah!"

Max sat himself at an empty table in the semi-circle that had been created out in the courtyard and pulled a notebook and self-inking quill out of his rucksack ready for note taking.
Next fourth year to arrive was Maxton Carden. Flashing him a smile she greeted "Good afternoon Maxton." It was nice to see that at least one of her snakes had read the class notice and was there on time.

The AUDACITY, people! THE AUDACITY!

Yawning as she walked up, she found Professor V near the blackboard. "Hiyyyyyyyyy,
Profeehhhsaaa,"
she was mid yawn.

And look, they DID get tables!!! Thank Merlin. Zoryn went and sat near Dorian giving him a thumbs up and a "Goodnight." She was just gonna rest her head for five minutes before class started.
Then of course Zoryn happened, just like Laurel had predicted. She'd be the third fourth year student to arrive in a chain of four. Raising her brows at the lioness as she passed by Professor Vance greeted. "Hello Zoryn, did someone prank you with a sleeping potion?" It could happen, it was Hogwarts after all.

Sighing a bit, but keeping her smile she decided it wasn't worth coming back because people already saw her.
To complete the chain of fourth years Zita of the snakes made her entrance even if she looked a bit upset about something. Maybe the friend she wanted to sit with hadn't arrived? Regardless Professor Vance returned the finger wiggle with a hand wave and a smile. "Good afternoon Zita!"

"Hello Professor Vance! Um, I was wondering if I could talk to you after class, or in your office - I wanted to ask you about possible careers in Divination. Ones that, um, are NOT teaching or...writing about it...like my dad," she said, her voice dropping during the last little bit. THAT would be why she hadn't asked HIM about this..
Sipping on her tea that was losing its warmth sadly Laurel was thinking about re-heating it when Scarlett made a beeline straight for her upon entrance. Beaming broadly she greeted the seventh year with a whisper of her own. "Of course, we can talk after class Scarlett. Maybe you can help me carry mirrors and such back up to the tower and we can talk about different Divination careers there?" She understood exactly. Laurel would have done the same.

Letting his bag fall off his shoulder and next to a cushion, he plopped unceremoniously onto the cushiony heaven - oh yes, he did love the cushions - and stared at the items that awaited on the table.

Hoping professor Vance wouldn't mind, he grabbed one of the scented oil bottles and took a sniff.
"Good afternoon Daehyun!" Laurel greeted the lion with a smile as the first year took a seat at one of the back tables. Seeing that he immediately opened one of the oils bottles to take a sniff Professor Vance cautioned "Don't sniff too much, you need a clear head." At least for the first part of the lesson.

It wasn't an asthma attack so she'd take it graciously and work toward steadying her breathing before it got worse.
Jessa's made a wheezing entrance that even Professor Vance could hear from where she was standing. Mildly concerned she greeted with a smile "Hi, are you all right there Jessa?" It wasn't pollen season now, was it? If needed she could send for Healer Macmillan.

Oh. But Jessa was there. How had he missed her before? “Hello, Professor Vance.“ He greeted her with a polite smile before sliding into the seat next to Jessa. “Hi.“ She received a smile too, of course. A big one.
"Hello Cameron!" Laurel greeted with a smile. It had been amusing to watch how he upon entrance had been scanning who was in attendance before he chose who to sit with. Seating hierarchy was apparently important.

"Hello Professor," Hanna greeted as she joined the group. She could SMELL the tea that Professor Vance was drinking and it smelled delicious. But she wasn't bold enough as to ask for some.
"Good afternoon Hanna!" Professor Vance greeted the young Ravenclaw with a smile as she came in and took a seat at one of the tables. Every time she saw Hanna she was reminded that she missed her former colleague Arthur more.

Spotting a wondrous Hanna, the boy took up the space next to her. Waving to the Professor, Aaron stated "Good afternoon Professor Vance! I hope you enjoyed your lunch."
Spotting Aaron Valentine walk in Laurel waved to him and called over "Good afternoon Aaron! Thank you for asking. I ate a nice tomatosoup with risoni and soft bread it was delicious. How was your lunch?" It was nice when the students had manners. It made things easier.

Emmalyn glanced around the table and took note of the various items. She found hand mirrors, some sort of smelly liquid in bottles, and a cauldron. No tea in sight. She was fine with that. She figured they must be boiling or mixing something in those cauldrons.
Those who enjoyed Divination chose tables near the front which was what Emmalyn of the badgers did. Flashing the first year a bright beam Professor Vance greeted. "Good afternoon Emmalyn, its indeed a beautiful day." Giving her tea cup a glance before replying she said "I’m drinking peppermint tea. And sadly no, we’re not reading our teaves today but I think you’ll enjoy what we will read."

Hints why she was super excited about an outdoor divinion.

But soon on arriving, she should have known especially given the time of the lesson… well that dream was crushed. ”Hello Professor Vance.” Really trying not to seem so disappointed.
"Hello Juni!" Professor Vance greeted with a bright smile as the eagle entered her makeshift outdoor classroom. The sixth year girl seemed a bit down but she hoped her mood would improve as the lesson went on.

"Afternoon Professor Vance. Good day for class to be outside." he smiled hoping that she was going to teach a really interesting lesson.
Next student to come was Patrick of the snakes. Waving to the second year boy Professor Vance called over a warm smile pursing her lips. "Good afternoon Patrick, it’s indeed a perfect day for a class outside. Th sun is nice and warm, don’t you think?" You had to take advantage of the days with wamr weather before winter hit.

But upon entering the courtyard and noticing the mirrors, well, that went out the window. Scrying of some sort it was then. "Good day, Professor Vance," the Hufflepuff chirped to the woman as he set his bag down. "Been using that Magic 8 ball by any chance?"

Plopping down in a seat next to Emmalyn, he took out his textbook from his enchanted suitcase and offered the younger girl a small impish grin. "Hey," he chirped. "What do you reckon is in these?" No signs or anywhere telling them NOT to touch things - though Derf tended to not notice those anyway - so he picked up one of the bottles and pulled out the cork to take a good whiff....and his eyes instantly watered. "Holy flaming salanders...that's...strong," he winced, eyed watering from the smell.

Prefect Derfael of the badgers entered the makeshift classroom next looking like he was in a good mood. It boded well for the lesson. As he greeted her Professor Vance beamed back "Good afternoon Derf! I have used my Magical 8 ball. It has been pretty helpful actually, it predicted an accident over the summer that i could prevent from happening."

Professor vance took some more sips of her tea but wished she hadn’t since it had now gone cold. Grimacing she heard and saw how Derf visibly winced when he took a sniff in one of the scented oil bottles. Looking over at him she cautioned "Don't sniff too much. The oils are strong. And remember don't just go sniffing in things you don't know what they are. It can have serious consequences." Hadn't DADA and Potions taught him that?

Not to mention, her head of house taught this subject, which made the captain feel doubly responsible to attend lessons.

Outside was good too, because then if time, she could go fly again. Which was becoming a bad habit, to be honest, but she couldn't sneak in an extra flying session if she had to walk all the way from the Divination Tower, could she? Unless she happened to lug her broom up to class with her and just flew off the tower ... but that might be frowned upon. So yes, good on Professor Vance for hosting lesson outside today. "Good afternoon, Professor!"
"Good afternoon Skylar!" Laurel beamed over to her Quidditch captain as she came in half expecting her to be carrying her broom under her arm. But she seemed to have left the broom in her dorm so maybe she had understood that most professors except Haraldur didn’t like that they brought unnecessary stuff to class.

But that wasn't many layers at all, so once Abra parked himself on a cushion, he wrapped his arms around his body and tried to keep all the heat IN.

"Afternoon, Professor."
Young Abraham Botros came in layered in so much clothing against the cold that he looked to Laurel like a stuffed munchkin. She wasn’t going to say anything about it but she wondered what he was going to wear when it got really winter cold. Flashing him a smile she called over "Afternoon Abraham!"

"Why do we never have a lesson on how to read the bones off of a bowl of chicken wings I just ate?" he asked. He was pretty sure he saw that sort of reading in a movie once. Plus, a bowl of chicken wings sounded delicious to him.
Slate came into the outdoor classroom and like clockwork he spitted out a comment/question like Laurel had predicted before the class that he would do. It was his usual. Looking over at him she flashed him a smile. "Hello Slate, we never have a class on reading chicken wings just so you’ll have something to ask about and it's not the topic of today either." The last was added with finger wink. But maybe she’d do a food lesson next.

Natalie stepped in and took a seat near Cameron. Her greeting wasn't directed towards Professor Vance per say but she flashed the snakette a smile nonetheless. "Good afternoon Natalie!"

And to think, it wasn't even winter yet.

"Hello professor." Brrrrrr. She could do with some tea herself, actually.
Bel came in soon after bundled up with several layers of clothing just like Abraham. Hopefully the warm cushions would give her some warmth. Turning her gaze to the badger she greeted kindly "Afternoon Bel!"

Maybe she'd actually get something out of the class.
In Bel's footsteps another badger girl entered that seemed a bit lost in her own thoughts. Casting a glance over in the young girl's direction Laurel greeted with a warm smile. "Hello Night!"

"Morning professor..." The greeting from Nathan Hale made Laurel stare over at the senior boy for a good whole minute before she greeted a smidge pointedly "Good afternoon Nathan, when did you go to sleep last night? The time is close to 1.00pm now. Have you not eaten lunch?" This was concerning.

Isabel walked in some minutes later in her glowing red Gryffindor robes and took a seat. Turning her gaze to the lioness Laurel greeted kindly "Good afternoon Isabel."

”Hey Professor Vance – are you having a nice day?” she asked happily.
Mel was the first student to actually come to class with a grin on her face. It warmed Professor Vance's heart. Turning her head to the seventh year she responded with a happy smile. "Hello Mel, I'm having a very good day, splendid even since I get to teach you all some divinations. How are you?"

Prefect Holden was also someone you could count on to be in a good spirits for a lesson. Turning to her beamed "Hello Olivia, I'm very good, thank you for asking. How are you dear?"

Alyce was recognized by her flaming red as she came into the makeshift classroom and was making her way between the tables to sit down next to Nathan. Smiling kindly over at the snakette Professor Vance greeted "Hello Alyce, I'm doing splendidly thank you. How are you today dear?" She could definitely count on Alyce to get Nathan's mood up.

Past terms she’d sat with Derf and Jessa and Abey and Emmeline, but she’d only given each of them, plus Bel, a grin as she made a beeline over to the table where Liv was seated. Nobody minded, did they?
Next student to show up was Stasya of the lions. Laurel watched her hesitate on where and with who to sit with hidden amusement. Seating hierarchy was super important apparently for many. It mattered where you sat. Smilng kindly over at the third year Professor Vance greeted "Good afternoon Stasya."

Because that would give her ideas on what to request from the house elves, but that was another point all together. With hellos done, she dropped cross legged to the ground on a pillow and waited for the class to begin.
Shera was the third student to come in to greet her with a morning when it was well after lunch. Deciding to let it slide for the first years already nervous sake she greeted warmly "Good afternoon Shera! Thank you, floral patterns on teacups are just so pretty don't you agree? I was drinking peppermint tea for warmth."

A quick glance around at the tables lead her to follow her feet right over to a familiar face. "Hi, Shera!" Sitting herself down on one of the comfy pillows set up on a chair. "I wonder what we'll be doing today, do you think we'll get to work together?" Working with a partner was always fun.
If her predictions were correct then Shea would be followed by another first year and Rylee's entrance made that come true. Warmly returning the young lioness's wave she greeted "Good afternoon Rylee!" It was nice to see so many youngling with good attitudes and manners from home.

Ms. Blaze could be witty sometimes..

Giggling to herself she turned to find the perfect pillow to plop her already tired self onto. After doing so she pulled her book she liked to read whilst waiting for lessons to begin, from her bag and into it shoved her attention.
Letting out a warm giggle at Miranda's wittyness Laurel winked at the senior girl smiling. "Good afternoon Miranda, yes you will soon see what I've planned for you all today. Unless have you already predicted it?"

Kye made her way through to the courtyard where she found a replica of the classroom waiting for her.

"Hello, Professor Vance," Kye greeted, with a nod and smile to her Head of House.

She picked a table and took a seat, letting her food settle was a good idea.
Kye came in next, wasting no time to find herself a seat. Beaming kindly over at her Professor Vance greeted "Good afternoon Kye!"

As she looked around for a seat, she also took a moment to notice which of her classmates had already arrived. Finally, Jessi found a seat, plopped down in it and began to organize her materials for class. She would be ready, when the professor said go.

The last student to arrive was Cassandra McNally of the eagles. Flashing a warm smile over in the girl's direction she greeted. "Good afternoon Cassandra!" A glance down at her watch told her that it was high time to start even though she would have wished to have waited for more snakes to arrive.


Straightening up fully from her casual stance, Professor Vance, made her floral cup with the cold peppermint tea disappear with a flick of her wand that she had pulled out of its waist holder. Making her smile bigger she turned her gaze to assembled students. "Welcome everyone to this afternoons outdoor divination class with the courtyard and the warm sunlight as a wonderful backdrop."

Taking out her wand a second time Professor Vance tapped the blackboard lightly making an image of human fingernails appear, stripped and decently clean without any visible nail polish or decorative art.
SPOILER!!: Nail image


While the students looked at the image Professor Vance moved to stand on the other side of the blackboard. Tapping it lightly to get attention she asked "Today our focus is going to be on our fingernails. Before I tell you why can someone tell me how we can use our nails for purposes of Divination?"


OOC: Class has started! Catch up posts are allowed throughout. If you are just now joining please pretend as if your student has been there from the start or subject yourself to Prof Laurel's wrath . First question is simple just answer how your character thinks nails can be used for Divination purposes. All answers are welcome both right, wrong and funny. I'll move on in 24 hours @ approx 9am GMT+2 tomorrow. Sorry for the wait, my comp ate all my replies last night and I didn't have energy then to rewrite it all.

Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when

Daisy thought about what using fingernails for Divination could mean. She had heard something from a Muggle doctor. She raised her hand, totally unsure. "Is it to do with spots on the nails and their relation to health?"

Them caulderon with water and these scented oil bottles got Ace to toy with the idea of cobbling together a makeshift diffuser. But the class had begun and his focus shifted to.... his hands? Nails. They were gonna talk about nails.

Sometimes he wished he has his grandma on speed dial because goodness the things she knows about all these divinatory stuff. Tentatively he raised a hand "Professor, there are a lot of beliefs associated with the half-moon of fingernails, like its got to do with longevity or immunity or something." To which if he would believe in it, he better start writing out his last will and testament because he barely had any white anything on his nails.

Clear head? Were the scented oils poisonous?!

Flushing at the professor's comment, Daehyun meekly put the lid back and set the oil bottle on the table, catching sight of Jessi waving at him, to whom he waved back before the lesson started.

His eyes flew to the blackboard when a picture of nails showed up, self-consciously moving his fingers into fists under the table to hide his own, praying they wouldn't be getting manicures or anything of the sort. What did they even have to do with Divination?

... and just as that question had popped in his head, she'd voiced it aloud. He stared down at his nails, clean but torn at the ends, and some bitten short as a nervous habit. Since he'd developed a liking for creatures, and lately Herbology too, his nails were just-unfortunate victims. He supposed someone's nails told many things about that person, like his said about him that he wasn't the kind of person to care about getting his hands dirty or one to shy away from work in fear or messing them up, but he couldn't tell what their use could be in Divination. Were they going to see the future in their nails?

Daehyun decided to stay quiet, since he could think of no valid reason to use their nails. He just hoped there wouldn't be any group work.

WEeeeeeell Bel didn't know the answer in relation to divination, but you could tell plenty about people by their nails, so she decided to say something along those lines. Unable to see her own glove covered nails right then, she stuck her hand up.

"I dunno about for divination but you can tell a bunch about someone by their nails. If they keep 'em clean. If they keep 'em long or short. And old people nails look different to young people nails. All that stuff. So maybe actually nails can't be used for divination, only for applying your intuition when you see someone's, ya know, professor?" Oh wait. Bel covered her mouth. Whoops. "Wait, was that rude to say? I didn't mean to offend you or anything." Because, you know, she was a divination professor and everything.

Oh. They were looking at nails? That kind of confused Hattie to why they were outside then. They could see their nails perfectly fine in the classroom. Unless there was something else they were going to do. She supposed that they would find out soon. The outside was a little distracting though, which was okay now, since she could take a little time to think about her answer. She hoped that she wouldn't get too distracted from the class though. That would not be good. She'd not learn anything if she was distracted by the pretty views. That was the only downside of outside lessons. She really did enjoy looking at the views, but she had to try hard to make sure that she wasn't going to get distracted. She eventually tore her gaze from the pretty grounds, to look at the picture of the blackboard again. Hmm. she could probably answer now.

So the blonde smiled, and put her hand up in the air. "I believe you can interpret a person's personality from looking at their nails" Though she honestly didn't really get it. She hadn't really paid attention to many finger nails, but they mostly all looked the same. So she didn't get how they could all mean different things. Maybe she'd find out in the lesson today!

"I'm great, thanks Professor." Although she could use some warm tea if the Professor still has some. Alyce took out her notebook and quill as the Professor started the lesson. Fingernails? They're doing fingernails divination today? Hmm...Interesting.

How can they use fingernails for divination? She heard about this kind of Divination before but she's not really sure. What's the name again? Onysomething. The Slytherin raised her hand up in the air "From the markings on someone fingernails? It said that the marking could foretell events of the future." But she didn't really know how to do that though.
