| | |  Tarot Party
The Divination classroom was decorated as it usually was, except for the fact that dozens of candles were floating in mid-air (much like the candles in the Great Hall), casting a warm glow on everything. The effect of the candles and the dramatic colours of the pouffes spread around the room was quite cozy, and Natasha stood surveying her work proudly.
The trap door was open, just waiting for the other staff members and students to come in. She'd charmed a self-refilling teapot to serve tea to everyone, and that were now hovering along with the candles, just waiting for a teacup to be held up.
Damian was safe in his nursery, and several decks of Tarot cards sat on the half-dozen circular tables she'd set up around the room. The party was ready to start! | |

Forrester looked around, "Feel free to do mine, Natasha. I'm out of practice, too many years spent outside the atmosphere." He gave her a look, daring her to try his. They were always in competition. Would she turn this one down?

She swatted once. She swatted twice. Bucky then decided to go for an uppercut.
"Get out of my face you tea--" Bucky didn't finish her sentence for Blaylock-Erikson had decided to continue with the party. Maybe she could rid Bucky from the persistent tea pot of doom. Celestina frowned at the deck of cards on her table as the Professor went on to explain what they would be doing for the party.
Celestina stared at Blaylock and then glanced at Whende and craned her neck to find Big Red. By the looks of it no one was volunteering.
"Tough luck, eh Blay?" Bucky muttered then raised her brows. What what? "Oh you want me--Wha--Ohhh! Okay."
Bucky frowned and held her tongue out, biting down on it gently in concentration. Wiggling her fingers about trying to decide which card she wanted. And just as she was about to choose a card the Mystery Man spoke. Bucky clenched her fist and began to raise it threateningly but was hit again on the back of the head by the violent teapot.
That teapot was going down.

Natasha groaned inwardly as that insufferable man spoke up. He couldn't just leave the past alone, could he? Nooooo, he had to just go and stick his great big nose in things and stir everything up.
She met his eyes and raised a brow, "Of course, Professor Forrester. Take a seat and we can show everyone here how this thing works." | |

Ian slowly walked over to the tables and took a seat.He stared at the cards in front of him wondering what it was that he was supposed to do with them.He was always bad at Divination and he definitely didn't know how to read Tarot cards.Right then, he wished he'd payed more attention to class.
Ian looked up to find proffessor Blaylock but as he'd expected, she was already busy helping others.

Professor Forrester raised an eyebrow at the young girl with green eyes being attacked by the tea pot. What did she do to deserve such treatment? He took a seat across from Natasha.
"ready when you are"

Giving Maline a look that said, 'I'll come by your office later and talk' she smiled and watched as Blaylock showed them how to do a Tarot reading. She was truly interested.

Take a--but--Bucky was sitting right in front of Blaylock! Clutching the pillow beneath her with both hands, Bucky decided to focus her anger on the Mystery Man as the teapot collided with her head repeatedly. The Evil Liquid Holder was obviously becoming irritated that Celestina was the only guest without a cup of tea.
"You better get yourself a very very comfortable cushion, Sir," commented Bucky wincing as the teapot hit her again. "It's going to be a loooong day." | |

Natasha tapped her wand on the errant teapot and chided the young Gryffindor, "You know, Bucky...it wouldn't be so offended if you'd just accept a cup of tea."
She turned back to everyone else in the room and beckoned them closer to where they sat, "Come closer, everyone, so you can see how it's done."
She held the deck of tarot cards out to Forrester, "Shuffle while thinking of a question...any question, and then pick 3 cards randomly. Lay them out left to right, face down in front of you."

She watched as that Nice Girl Bucky got whacked in the head with a tea pot, and she looked at it in disdain before Rabbit her hawk began to chase it playfully. Turning to Dan she smiled at him "I'm pleased you're looking forward to it, now, want me to help with your cards when we're shown everything?"

Katelyn walked in, and peered around. It was pretty crowded, and she couldnt really see anyone. She sat down in a random chair, and waited for someone to talk to her, She thought she heard Dan's voice, but wasnt sure so she didnt get up or anything. | |

"You better get yourself a very very comfortable cushion, Sir," commented Bucky wincing as the teapot hit her again. "It's going to be a loooong day." Miranda saw the girl being attacked by the teapot repeatedly. She frowned slightly and reached out her hand, grabbing its handle firmly. It strained in her grip, but she held on to it. "Some teapot," she muttered.

Looking around, he took out his wand and tapped the cup, turning the tea into black coffee.
Taking a sip, he smiled. "That's much better."
"That's what I'm asking." Leo frowned. "Like I said, sounds like a cookie. Speaking of cookies all I see is biscuits. Wouldn't hurt anyone if there were some cookies around here." he grumbled as he took a biscuit and eyed it for a while.
She blinked at Leo, "'course we do, we hate living muggles ways" she defended almost glaring at him as she did so. Lu watched him closely as he changed that cup of tea into something else as her eyes darted sideways at random Professors wondering if they can change the tea into something else and not be rude about the hospitality, then again when did she care?
"Leo" she said sweetly placing a strong hold on his cup and pulled it out of his hands. "You don't mind do you?" adding a sweet smile to match her tone then sipped some of the coffee. "Cookies sound yummy" she muttered between sips eying him closely, "there might be some stashed around".
Once Professor Blaylock spoke, Lu shifted her attention to her as she addressed everyone in the room. Glancing at the chart she mentioned very closely, she wasn't ready to know her future especially with Leo around next her. Its frightening. But what to do? She was here and she had to pay attention for the sake of it and not to hurt her grades in others.

7 of Swords

and
6 of Wands

Oooh, Rapunzel leaned in closer. 'Huh,' she thought to herself. 'Where are the hearts, spades, clubs, and diamonds?'
Then she giggled inwardly at her silly Muggle upbringing. 'Of course the cards are different; we're at Hogwarts. In a Divination classroom. In the middle of a Tarot-reading party. How exciting!' She leaned forward eagerly to see what these three cards would tell about the professor...

Armand walked in, the new child cradled in his arms, rubbing Damian's back as the baby blinked up at the sights around him. He stood in the doorway watching the proceedings, ready to take Damian back into the nursery if he started fussing too much.

Ari picked up a sleeping Ginger and moved towrds the group in fron of Blaylock and the person she didn't know. She quirked an eyebrow ad thught, this should be interesting as she watched them. Ginger, irritated at being woken up, climbed onto her shoulder and promtly fell asleep again. She shook her head, trying not to giggle.

A Slytherin girl, that one who'd said hi, seemed to have that stupid tea pot under control. When wasn't even the one under attack and the pot was still kind of annoying.
She titled her head to the side as That Guy took some cards. She'd grown up playing silly fortune telling games with face cards when she was younger. But these things were just so. Much. COOLER! She was tempted to poke one to see if the images inside would move, or maybe even run away in terror.
The fact that Erikson had brought in the baby managed to distract her for a moment, though. She hadn't actually been around a baby for what felt like years. But that only held her attention for a couple seconds. Then she was back to staring at the cards on the table.
"Can I touch it?" she asked. "Or will that kill it?"

Adam creaked open the trapdoor, trying to determine just how late he was. It sounded like there were a lot of people up there. As quietly as possible, he snuck up through the door and sat right at the back of the Divination room, hoping not to be noticed. He was here to observe, not participate.
OOC: I want Adam to be here, but i leave for work shortly so I can't really participate sorry.

"I'd hate to live in magic, well I like it but not always. Maybe a little muggle touch into it, it'd make life a little bit adventurous." he said as he took another sip of his delicious coffee, looking around the place that was filled with new students and Professors.
Leo pouted when she took his coffee away from her, "Actually I do mind, Lu." he said as he gripped his coffee and took it away from her. "Here" he said as he took out his wand, looked at Professor Blaylock before turning a whole pot of tea into coffee. "This, is ours okay? let's sit somewhere away from these monsters, they might take out coffee" he muttered in her ear. Grabbing the pot of coffee, he sat down and looked over at Lu. "Come on, love."
"I'd like come cookies now." He sighed. But then an idea popped into his head. Since he turned the tea into coffee, he could turn the biscuits into cookie, right? Taking a few biscuits, he tapped his wand on them and turned them into cookies. Popping one in his mouth, he gave one to Lua. "Here, now we got cookies and coffee."
Seeing that the excitement had started, Leo shifted his attention to Professor Blaylock to hear what she'd say.

Natasha was frowning at Forrester's last card when she looked up momentarily to see Armand and Damian standing just inside the classroom. She smiled warmly at the sight and quickly turned back to the cards.
She picked up the first one, "Professor Forrester's Past is represented by the 7 of Swords, which suggests that he had a desire to be free...sort of a lone wolf complex."
The next card was held up to the rest of the people gathered there, "The Knight of Cups represents his Present state." she fought the smile as she went on to explain the card, "This card suggests that our Professor Forrester is rather too sensitive to his emotions right now. And perhaps...he needs to tone them down to be able to see things clearer."
The final card was held up as well, "And of course...the 6 of Wands here shows his future state. This card represents triumph, pride. So Professor Forrester here is sure to be quite the accomplished man."
She pushed the cards back into the deck and met the eyes of the man before her, "Thank you, that was quite...enlightening." She turned to the rest of the party and smiled, "Who else wants a go? I'm here all night...and hey, you should also try doing some readings of your own. The chart I prepared is quite simple to understand."
OOC: Basically, shuffle and pick 3 cards. First card is past, 2nd is present, 3rd is future. What we did was have Vondella randomly click on 3 cards in that site I linked you to.
I need to go sleep (it's 6 am), but don't worry...the thread will be open all weekend for anyone who wants to go on with the reading. I'll come back later and reply to everyone. Ya'll should try RPing together, and even if you can't get it right, that's fine cos it's all In Character.

Celestina turned her attention to Whende and shrugged, one hand rubbing all the spots the teapot had attacked.
"The cards? I never heard of killing cards," spoke Celestina and figured that Whende could be the first person to try. "Touuuuch it," she whispered in the most convincing tone she could muster. | |

Gemma started her way up the stairs, concentrating hard, her tongue pressed against her cheek, trying to remind herself that she could climb stairs withouth falling down them. "I can do it," the clumsy Ravenclaw declared as she took another step. Suddenly, she caught sight of the candles and beamed. "What pretty-ah!" Gem yelled, toppling head over heels down the stairs and landing at the bottom of them with a BUMP! "Oh bother," murmured the golden eyed girl. "Ah well. Atleast I wasn't at the top of the stairs," she chirupped optimistically, standing up and starting her way up the stairs, again, for the fifth time.
After a few more attempts she jumped into the room, amazed by the beautiful candles and smiled at everyone, waving vigorously at them and handing out a few random hugs. Oh a party! She loved parties! Could this day get muc better? Gem highly doubted it. Skylar and her had expressed their feeling for eachother, she had hung out with her good friend, Cassandra, and read a quarter of the way through her book Myths. "What a lovely room!" She exclaimed, clasping her hands together and twirling around absent mindely. She found a seat and watched everyone with incredibly wide, curious eyes while her fingers wound through her hair, plaiting it into one, shoulder-blade lengthed braid.

When shrugged. "Ok." Even if they died... they'd just be dead, right? She pulled a hand from below the table and gently poked the stack of cards. But if any of the characters on the cards moved, she really couldn't tell. They were all stuck in the deck.
"I think I'll touch them later," she said decidedly and stuck her arm back beneath the table.
