The windows are open and a crisp fall breeze is blowing through the Arithmancy classroom in preparation for another day of learning. Professor Domingo, clad in earth tones to match the season, stands near the front of the room shuffling her notes to be organized and ready for today. A notice is written on the chalkboard in her handwriting: "Take out the list of three people I asked you to prepare and set it on your desk."
OOC: You may RP chatting, but please nothing excessive. The lesson will begin in a few hours.

Zander smiled at the confirmation of his work. PHEW. Maybe numbers weren't his thing, but at least he was doing this stuff right so far. Heck, he maybe he could get this whole lesson right! And then finally at least one thing would be looking up because everything else seemed to be falling apart. And not just seemed to be. Everything was falling apart, yet somehow he was holding it together, well for now. Flipping to the right chapter in his textbook, he read a little bit about the life path numbers and then got back to scribbling things down. Lots of things.

Kevin Hirase & Simon Holden: TWO (2): Your path will lead you to seek balance and harmony in all that you do and you'll learn the benefits of cooperation and compromise, as well as patience and peacekeeping. Once you've incorporated these traits, you'll move on to the next phase - drawing others together. You were born to relate to others - and make certain that others relate well to each other as well. But be sure to remember not to ignore yourself and your own needs while you're making sure everyone else is cooperating. People with 2 Life Paths are extremely sensitive that they need to be careful not to become the world's doormat. Career/vocation options include jobs that allow you to mediate, negotiate, take care of details, be in a supportive role, or gather facts.
Coral-Bay Aldrich ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
As far as the interpretations went though, he was lost. Or confused. Or uh, both? Because as much as he did look up to Kevin in certain ways, there was no way that Kevin was out to seek balance and harmony. More like havoc and mayhem. Even as a friend, Zander had to admit that Kevin did like to stir up trouble. It was his thing. Not cooperation and peacekeeping. "Professor... It says here that a lifepath number of two is for peacekeepers and stuff... But uh, I don't think this can be right... Because well, for Simon it is. But I don't really think this fits Kevin?" The were also at two ends of the spectrum, Simon and Kevin. Two very, VERY different ends.
SPOILER!!: Interpretations for 2/3 not including Kev
Simon:
Wants peace between friends and people he's surrounded with. Drawn to compromise instead of bickering and arguing. One of the career options is gathering facts and Simon loves to gather facts because he wants to be like Sherlock Holmes- well he wants to be the John Watson. He likes the facts and to make people feel comfortable and will do so for his whole life!!
CB:
Coral-Bay is a twin and she's always around her twin sister and they really love each other a lot. They're best friends. So maybe... Maybe this means that she will find independence and will become more of her own person down the road instead of always being associated with her sister? That way she'll be able to become her own person and stuff?? The book also says that she has quick mental agility, which HAS to be true, 'cause she's a Ravenclaw! AND she loves to read so a bookstore would be a perfect match. 'specially if it has history books because those are her favorites.

Gabe was in a MOOD...and not even the numbers were helping his plight. See, he NEVER struggled with Arithmancy....yet, these numbers weren't inspiring him today. Honestly...
The work was easy enough. Busy work, he called it. It didn't stimulate his mind...and because it didn't, Gabe's mind was struggling to stay on task...and that made him notice people in the classroom...like Zahra....and Clara.......and CB......and his sister....
...AND reminded that this professor was a GIRL.

ONE (1) Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore. Leaders. Strong pioneering spirit. Determination.
In my personal opinion, this is true for both men. They were the founders of some of the most important pieces of magic in history...and are duly the most famous for those very reasons. History tells us they were leaders in their chosen fields, masters of what they knew...and they demonstrated enough impressive skill to secure 'Chocolate Frog Card' privileges.
FIVE (5) You'll have many forks along your path and you'll welcome each change as a new opportunity with unknown results. Change is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - championing freedom. You're progressive and super-resourceful, which make you equally good at many different trades. Career/vocation options include working with the public, advertising, publicity, or sales - any kind of work that calls for energizing power rather than routine. Travel is well-suited to you. I personally think my sister would be good in a public profession. Ruby makes friends very easily and is able to persuade people to her side and point of view with just her words. She's also very resourceful, which frustrates me because she doesn't stop to learn things. She also loathes routine and consistency. Traveling in her later life makes the most sense...

"Six, Seven, Eight," Zahra noted out loud. Inwardly she missed Mikey so much she could hardly stand it.
...eh book work. She gnawed on her quill and flipped to the right page. Ehh. Blah blah blah words words...
"WHAT!?" HAHAHAHAHAHA
....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA "This says MIKEY TOUSSAINT is going to lead a luxurious life with a career in BEAUTY PRODUCTS and DECORATING!" HAHAHAHA She actually kind of forgot he wasn't around and looked for him to LAUGH HER HEAD OFF AT HIM...
But you know. He wasn't there. SO that's okay. She'd just.. "... just wait til I owl him." ...bummer. Owls sucked. Sigh.
...and Zahra again.
She was SO loud....and SO obnoxious....and just......
GETTING ON HIS LAST NERVE.
He had nothing better to do...So...

..... stink eye was just the every day way Ravenclaws looked at her, so whatevs! Zahra blew a raspberry at him while using her finger to make her nose into a PIG NOSE SNOUT.
NO doubt it was attractive. haha. She was giving him something TO stare at.
Plus she was looking for a distraction anyway, anything to keep from doing more interpretations.

Why was she so obnoxious?!
He shot her a RUDE GESTURE. RUDE. RUDE. RUDE.

THAT had been the easy part, and it was still pretty difficult. Not even because maths was difficult (though it could be, especially if you had a wandering attention like he did), but because if you made even a teeny tiny error, it could totally mess up the rest of your calculations.
But he was SPOT ON so far. Heck yeah, Toby HIGH-FIVED HIMSELF in celebration. U GO, TOBES.
But now was the part that involved all the thinking and focusing and writing down and sitting still and basically... the bit Toby was never all that great with. He did, at least, have the kind of the imagination that helped him apply the abstract explanations of the numbers to the specific personalities he was looking at. So that was handy.
Toby flipped open his book and started rifling through to the right chapter, going one page at a time because it sort of worked as great fidgeting tool. And... y'know, delaying the part of the lesson that took actual brainwork. Avoidance was a great tool.
Once he found the chapter, Toby attempted to read through it, but he only got a couple of sentences in before his attention began to wander again, and he became distracted by the scratching of quills in the classroom. He shifted in his seat, as though looking for a more comfortable position, but really just wanting to move around a bit. Could he, like... get up and walk around? Maybe? Uhh... probably best not to ask. Instead Toby just sat there, jiggling his leg and bouncing his quill between two fingers as he attempted to read the chapter. Of course, that didn't last long, because he flicked INK on his notes and desk and uniform and nearly accidentally flung the quill away entirely.
He leaned back and stretched his arms out in front of him, totes limbering up for some writing. Under the desk, his knees continued to bounce and one foot tapped the floor. Okay. He could dO THIS.
SPOILER!!: Notes
Professor Botros
Life Path number = 9
The textbook says that when 9 is your life path number you understand interconnectedness of all things, and I guess Professor Botros DOES teach Runes and they sort of... connect stuff? Universal love, compassion and tolerance is TOTALLY what Professor Botros is all about, though, like he's totally reached that, I reckon. And caring for people. Wow, all this stuff makes a lot of sense. It says that people with this Life Path Number are all about helping people, like in healing. Professor Botros TOTALLY is all about helping people, he's super helpful to me with helping me get ready for my OWLs. And he's IN the education career, too! This life path number totally fits him. I reckon in the future he'll be all about... continuing to help people. Maybe when he retires which I hope isn't soon he'll fill his spare time with artsy stuff, and connect with people that way too. Either way, he's already caring and tolerant and helpful and all of that, so that TOTALLY works out.
Professor Fuller
Life Path number = 5
The number five life path number is all about change and stuff, and how you're good with change and travelling and go through all sorts of changes in your life and that works for you. Maybe that's true with Professor Fuller before, but I mean, don't we ALL go through a lot of changes? If this is accurate, then in the future he's gonna go down a whole different route in his life path and stuff... And he IS resourceful, 'cause he was a Slytherin, and they're known for being resourceful, but none of the rest makes sense as far as I know. I don't think Professor Fuller is about to go off become a salesman or anything. As far as I know he's done teaching and stuff since forever ago. But the championing freedom thing might work? Maybe he'll try to liberate the House Elves or something.
Professor Thompson
Life Path number = 1
Well, Professor Thompson is independent and stuff, and he's DEFINITELY a strong individual. He could probably lift about TEN of me with EASE. And he's a TOTAL leader too, I mean, he's obviously a teacher. But you can like totally tell that he's a guy that's in charge and stuff, y'know? In classes I don't think anyone undermines him or anything 'cause they KNOW he's the BOSS. And yeah, mental agility, he has that too. He was a Ravenclaw, after all. And he IS in a career which uses the brain, being a teacher and all. A really good one too. He could probably rule the school if he wanted to, and if he had the chance.
Okay DONE. Toby dropped his quill on top of his parchment and looked up and around the room, back to bouncing in his seat again. Man, this was a LOT of sitting still and concentrating and writing, and though he'd gotten super distracted about EIGHT BILLION TIMES, Toby was DONE. He sat there in his seat, BOUNCING and tapping his legs with his hands, feeling the energy build and build inside of him. As soon as they were done here, he was gonna go sprint laps of the castle 'cause WOW WOW WOW.

Again. He was legit angry at her for no reason she understood.. again. "Sorry for ....whatever." Like existing, Zahra guessed."... I bet your life path number is the angry-for-no-reason-number." You know? Yeah. Definitely. Why wasn't she sitting closer to Mari and Toby and the Happy Puffs?

"You're a bully."
Had she forgotten about making him cry?!...AND then hitting him in the back of the head with her boot? Just because he'd walked away from her to stave off a fight?!
".....and LOUD."
Seriously.......how was anyone supposed to think with her SHOUTING and whatever?

The LOUD thing was getting old. Everyone called her "that loud girl" and it was just... she wasn't all THAT loud.
So with that off of his chest, Zahra turned back to her notes and tried to EXIST LESS for Ruby's stupid brother.

Textbook in hand, AJ flipped to the right page. Two of the numbers were the same so that made her work that much easier. Once she found the right page, she skimmed the contents with her finger. Angel was a nine so that meant she was one too. AJ always knew that she had lots in common with her boyfriend, but this further proved it. Her dad was a eight. Time to scribble down the notes.
SPOILER!!: Notes
EIGHT (8): Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge. You're a born boss and your natural power and authority cause others to look to you when a decision needs to be made. The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgment.
NINE (9): Your path will lead you to understand the interconnectedness of all things. It's a path of universal love that learns compassion and tolerance. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - tolerance for all and the importance of caring for each other. You're a born healer and your healing may take the form of writing, composing, painting, or sculpting - reaching others by truly connecting to them. You'll be learning how to let go, to surrender the self for greater good. Career/vocation options include the arts, international business, education, and health - any line of work designed to help, heal, or humanize.
Hmmm... the notes on eight really did fit her dad. He was his own boss as a tourism guide. Nine really fit her sister. She thought of Angel and her love for plants. That girl would be a herbology professor, or something to do with plants when she grew up.

Before he got too far into interpretation, he wanted to absorb what he'd read and try to see if it applied to his list.
Ian decided to start with the historical characters, Hermione and Peverell. As he perused what he knew about their lives, he thought they were pretty on point. For Hermione, he considered that she had worked to free the house elves. She had also been instrumental in later life in making sure that wizards and muggles were able to live in some measure of harmony. She had a soft spot for what she considered mistreated creatures.
Peverall was one of the famous 3 brothers. He was the one who had been granted the invisibility cloak. Ian had read everything about it. It was one of the most intriguing artifacts in wizarding history in the mind of Ian. Based upon one of the stories Ian read, he surmised that Peverell had defeated death and showed his ancestors how to work in humility.
Onto the final interpretation, his father. He latched onto the idea of freedom and travel. His father owned his own fishing vessel and worked hard at his. He was a free man and travel was all part of the deal. It was a real big deal for Ian to learn what the numbers had to say about Alistair. He looked a bit deeper into the text to see what else he might be able to learn.
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Aw look at Benny getting a point for the Lions. Well done, Dragon. Adi now watched as Professor Domingo checked his calculations. Everything seemed to be in order. How could it not be? He had double checked it.
Now it was time to move onto the interpretation part. Adi flipped open his text book to the given page then set to work.
SPOILER!!: Adi's Notes
Benjamin Finnegan Atreyu
(August 26th, 2070)
8+2+6+2+0+7+0=25=2+5=7
I always say Benny's logical. He takes every topic into consideration, using logic to make decisions when he's faced with choices. Benny never wastes an opportunity to share his thoughts or knowledge with others when they need it. He wants to work with Magical Creatures in the future so that would be classified as "scientific knowledge" or "any field where you'll be allowed to study or contemplate things bigger than you."
Aubrey Janel Valentine
(April 12th, 2072)
4+1+2+2+0+7+2=18=1+8=9
AJ has compassion. A lot of it. It's just the tolerance part she needs to work on. But she is a Healer. She really forms this bond with people that make them feel better in no time. Who would know better than someone who she's done it to? Most likely she'll have a job in the future that will let her continue to do this for others.
Josephina Faith Nairne (née Hadley)
(April 2nd, 2044)
4+2+2+0+4+4=16=1+6=7
I suppose it's safe to say Professor Head of House Hadley has an inquisitive mind. Why else would she have chosen to teach Arithmancy at first? I mean, this is one complicated subjects so she had to have had the motivation and desire to understand it ALL. She then moved on to share this knowledge with her students as she became a Professor here at Hogwarts. We all know loads of persons do seek her wisdom. Especially her Hufflepuffs when they need it.
Whew! Adi wasn't that good at interpretations stuff but he had tried his best here. He wondered what Arithmancy lessons with Hadley would be like. Not that you aren't doing a great job, Professor Domingo. Hehe.
Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna
Benny decided to move onto Seamus Finnigan's life path number, the originator of his middle name in a way. The master number of 11 that had been discussed earlier had been calculated for him as well. Looking back at the correct page in the arithmancy textbook once more, he scrolled down to the entry for the number he was looking for, adding that interpretation into his notes as well.
SPOILER!!: Interpretation
ELEVEN (11/2): Much is expected of you with this Master Life Path. Your path will lead you to illuminate humankind inspirationallly. Sometimes you will work at the level of the 2 to bring toward you meaningful associations so that others will find you accessible. Once you've mastered your lessons, you'll move on to the next phase - becoming an inpirational leader. You're a born charismatic leader, magnetic and electric. You'll often find yourself in the spotlight, as the center of attention. Your mission is to be someone others look to for illumination and truth, and the truer you are to Universal principles, the happier and more successful you'll be on your path. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be the teacher, diplomat, or speaker or any field were you'll be in the spotlight and able to work with large groups.
This was seemed far harder to pin down. Ben supposed this might be attributed to the special aspect given the number but still. He got the leadership and attraction of others to the person with the number but the rest seemed just a confusing way to repeat it all multiple times. All in all, he wasn't sure it was much a fit with Finnigan, though on another note it did work well with what he knew about Harry Potter.
Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when
Samantha turned to the correct page of her textbook and began to read.
Linda Louise McCartney
(24th September 1941)
Life Path Number = 3
SPOILER!!: Linda McCartney Life Path Notes
THREE (3): Your path will entice you to be both spontaneous and creative, to live your life with joy and imagination. You will learn the benefits of optimism and enthusiasm, and how to express your emotions and exuberance. Once you've mastered these concepts, you'll move on to the next phase - inspiring others. You're a born communicator and your wit and light-heartedness will help others see the joy in any situation. Artistic, creative, and articulate are words to describe someone with a 3 Life Path. Career/vocation options should relate to anything artistic - writing, speaking, designing, illustrating, dancing, etc.
SPOILER!!: Sam's notes on Linda
This really suited who Linda was because she was a photographer and musician which are very creative professions. She certainly inspired many people. This is a perfect summary.
Elizabeth Victoria Montgomery
(15th April 1933)
Life Path Number = 8
SPOILER!!: Elizabeth Montgomery's Life Path Number Notes
EIGHT (8): Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge. You're a born boss and your natural power and authority cause others to look to you when a decision needs to be made. The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgement.
SPOILER!!: Sam's Notes on Elizabeth
I think Elizabeth had a legacy due to her acting. I think she was a natural leader and I think that is due to the fact that she was more comfortable being friends with men rather than women.
Mary Anna McCartney
(28th August 1969)
Life Path Number: 7
SPOILER!!: Mary McCartney's Life Path Number Notes
SEVEN (7): Your path will lead you to study, test, and analyze everything because you can't be satisfied with anything at face value. You'll seek the meaning of existence and will always be exploring mysteries and the unexplainable to find meaning for your life. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - sharing your wisdom of the metaphysical with others. You're a born seeker - philosophical, scientific, etc. - and because of your solitary investigation of the unknown, others will seek you out for your wisdom. Career/vocation options include any job that calls for analysis, deductive reasoning, or scientific knowledge, such as teaching, or any field where you'll be allowed to study or contemplate things bigger than you.
SPOILER!!: Sam's notes on Mary
Mary works as a photographer and has released a cookbook. In a way, photography and cooking allows her to study and contemplate things bigger than her. Photography looks at the bigger picture. There can be a story worth studying behind the eyes of a portrait subject. Mary likes cooking and cooking requires tasting which is a form of analysis.
Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite
Now there was an idea. Using her own birthday. The Gryffindor did confess to having a healthy appreciation of herself so this wouldn't be a problem at all and she gave a nod to the Professor indicating as much. The one date she could never get wrong no matter how many times anyone obliviated her. The day she came into this world was an event, okay?
Once again she put quill to parchment and got busy.
Well that was interesting, she shared a life path number with her father. This was definitely being owled now even if it turned out completely dull and unrelated as most things in Arithmancy tended to.
Lex pried open her text to check the matter.
Quote:
ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
But then....what was one to do when the Arithmancy textbook finally hit a nail on the head moment...? Lex had never anticipated as much coming from the this subject though she'd admit that on the off occasion it had a knack for being right, like now with the independence. The born leader thing was especially her father and something she denounced for herself thanks.
Wow.
SPOILER!!: Interpretation
My father and I: Evidently me and my father are epic people who were destined to rule the world one way or another. My father's actually in the field of business so funny the book should mention that and we both have determination and whatever else the paragraph said. Independence too, we take care of ourselves and don't need anyone else to get stuff done for us.

It was time do the part that Jasmine was afraid of.......interpretation. Sometimes the answer was clear to her. At other times, it seemed like she was totally guessing. Only time would tell which way things would go today. Jasmine picked up her book and turned to the assigned page. Then she set to work.
SPOILER!!: 3
THREE (3): Your path will entice you to be both spontaneous and creative, to live your life with joy and imagination. You will learn the benefits of optimism and enthusiasm, and how to express your emotions and exuberance. Once you've mastered these concepts, you'll move on to the next phase - inspiring others. You're a born communicator and your wit and lightheartedness will help others see the joy in any situation. Artistic, creative, and articulate are words to describe someone with a 3 Life Path. Career/vocation options should relate to anything artistic - writing, speaking, designing, illustrating, dancing, etc.

My father is a very joyful person who loves life. He doesn't show that side to everyone though. As a person in the military, he has to maintain a serious persona. He has no problem expressing his emotions. He is very straightforward and what you see is what you get. I believe that he has passed the inspiring others phase. He is an inspiration to many, especially to me. My father is a musician, so he is an artist in that way. Perhaps he is destined for an artistic type career after he retires from the Navy.
SPOILER!!: 5
FIVE (5): You'll have many forks along your path and you'll welcome each change as a new opportunity with unknown results. Change is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - championing freedom. You're progressive and super-resourceful, which make you equally good at many different trades. Career/vocation options include working with the public, advertising, publicity, or sales - any kind of work that calls for energizing power rather than routine. Travel is well-suited to you.

My mother has definitely had a lot of change in her life. She left her home in France and moved to the U.S. and back again. As a military wife, she has dealt with having to pick up and move her family to new places frequently. Being well suited to travel definitely applies to her. My mother is a witch, but she has lived in the muggle world all of her married life. She has definitely had to adapt, but has done so with enthusiasm and has never once complained. She is a professional photographer and her work is definitely not routine. Maybe she will use that somehow in advertising or publicity one day.
SPOILER!!: 9
NINE (9): Your path will lead you to understand the interconnectedness of all things. It's a path of universal love that learns compassion and tolerance. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - tolerance for all and the importance of caring for each other. You're a born healer and your healing may take the form of writing, composing, painting, or sculpting - reaching others by truly connecting to them. You'll be learning how to let go, to surrender the self for greater good. Career/vocation options include the arts, international business, education, and health - any line of work designed to help, heal, or humanize.

Landry is my best friend from childhood, who happens to be a muggle. She is an inspiration to me because she is the kindest, most supportive person I know. She doesn't need to learn compassion and tolerance. She has always had it. I believe that she is destined for a career in muggle medicine. She has been caring toward people and animals all of her life.

At last Jasmine was finished with interpretations. It took longer than she expected, but she got through it. She was able to find connections between the numbers and all three of the people she studied. Maybe you could always find a connection if you looked hard enough. Tired of thinking, Jasmine put down her quill and closed her eyes for a second. Then she waited to hear what Professor Domingo had to say next.

Professor Domingo's comment on her choices had to mean that the calculations were correct. That made Lux happy since sometimes math was hard with all the long numbers. Muggles were really on to something with their calculators.
After smiling at the woman, Lux turned to the correct page in her textbook so that she could work on the interpretations. This part could be tedious, but a lot of the time it was pretty easy.
She copied down what the textbook said and then her summary for each person:

7 + 2 + 2 + 0 + 6 + 7 = 24
2 + 4 = 6
Victor Bay
SIX (6): Your path will lead you to live responsibly at home and work to achieve balance between giving and receiving. This path is one of aid and service, and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - achieving balance between giving and receiving. You're a born counselor - sympathetic and caring - which makes others seek you out for advice. Career/vocation options include any job in the service industry where you can make life more comfortable, easy, and luxurious for others, including medicine, decorating, beauty products, training animals, teaching, and counseling.
According to the textbook, Bay's path is related to helping others and I can see that because he is a very kind and caring person who loves to help others whenever he can. Once he has learned this lesson, he will move on to the next level which is reaching a balance between giving and receiving. He is suited working where he can counsel others or give other forms of assistance. Bay is a Prefect, so he is in a position where he can help other students and the Professors.
Airey Flamsteed
ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
According to the textbook, Professor Flamsteed's path is related to independence and becoming a strong person. Once mastering those traits, the next stage is leadership. Professor Flamsteed is already in a position of leadership because he is a teacher of Astronomy. He is in control of his classroom and a very good teacher. He is a determined person because even though he couldn't become an astronaut, he remains passionate about his field and enjoys educating students about space.
Cosgrach Culloden
EIGHT (8): Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge. You're a born boss and your natural power and authority cause others to look to you when a decision needs to be made. The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgment.
According to the textbook, Professor Culloden's path is related to being able to tell the difference between money and the real importance of life. He needs to learn what to do with his authority, but it won't be easy for him. After he achieves this, the next level is him being in charge. Professor Culloden is a teacher who knows how to be authoritative in his classroom, so he has already reached this stage of his life. He has good authority and is a really good potions master.
When did Arithmancy get so daft? Now. Right now. It was so uninspiring learning about the life's path of others. What were they even meant to do with this in the real world? Stop a meeting and calculate the investors birthdates in order to find out where they were going in life? Nonetheless, he took up his quill and applied the reduction method looking perhaps sad or frustrated.
Text Cut: Birthday Reductions
Sophie Newell, March 17, 2070=2

Tye Clancy "Sir Honeydraught" Mitchell, July 3, 2050=8
3+7+2+0+5+0=17, 1+7=8
Had Professor Domingo really needed him to reduce the birthdays of both twins? He did anyway as it was numbers and showing the work 'n all. Also, did this mean that Caleb and Sophie were bound to have the same outcome of their life's path? Cutty felt a tug of stimulation at what a fabulous study in Arithmancy this could make. Maybe it had already been done. He should go to Professor Domingo and ask afterward.
Cutty redipped his quill into the dark brown ink and continued on with his analysis. The thought of either one of the Newell twins as in danger of becoming dormats was hilarious, but intriguing.
Text Cut: Analysis
The case of Twins, Sophie & Caleb Newell-Although born on the same date and therefore sharing the same life path number, I can see where the books explanation might apply to both twins but in different ways. Caleb and Sophie don't have any of the traits mentioned by the book belonging to the number 2 as a life path number, but this might be a sign that they have a lot to learn in their lives. Possibly from each other as the compromise and cooperation bit sounds like them when they're together, but only with one another and not lately since Grayson broke them up. Also, I can see how their presence might lead to the uniting of others. Caleb's presence seemed to unite Grayson and Sophie.
My neighbor, Sir Honeydraught-The life path number for Sir Honeydraught came to be 8. In this case the life path number's accuracy was rather easy to see. The man is a very successful wizard and knows the value of money and life quite well. He also runs his own business and none of this underlings cross him. He's the ultimate authority. I think he might have a Legacy. I'm not too sure. I'll have to owl him.
Cutty looked down at his parchment wondering where this exercise was going.

Ruby was struggling, honestly. She kept her paper covered so nobody could peek and tried to get it. It wasn't the math part that was tough, it was reading and writing it down, but being Ruby she wasn't about to say anything and besides... it looked right... right?

Oh wait she was behind the class now. What was she supposed to do? Look up the meanings of the numbers? Ugh. She buried her nose in the book and tried to look like she was hard at work.

Were they ready to move on? It appeared that the vast majority of them had finished their calculations. "Now if you will please turn to page seven of your textbooks as you finish up.." She continued circling the room during the inevitable shuffling of books and pages. "The meaning of each Life Path number can be found on this page. You will notice that the meanings for the Master Numbers are at the bottom and also that, in this calculation, the master 33 is not possible."
"So now that you have your calculations and their interpretations, please apply the textbook meanings to your three people. How does the analysis fit with their life outcomes if they have already lived a full life? If they are still alive, what does the analysis predict is yet to come for them?" This was always the interesting part of lessons: getting to see what lay ahead.
He was still going over his work, just to make sure he didn't get something wrong. It felt weird thinking that Emily and Professor Airey had the SAME number and he had a completely different one. It was.... kinda... sucky? Like, he was, left out of the cool club?
...
He'd barely noticed that the Professor was making her way around, so when she spoke to him - and not telling him off for once - it made him jump slightly in his seat.
...
As much as he wanted to NOT talk to her ever again, he couldn't keep the words from escaping his mouth. "Thanks, Professor." ....
....
Still didn't mean she was forgiven for being a meanypants though.
The lesson was progressing though, and to his delight, he as getting answers! Answers to the millions of questions that were forming in his head simultaneously. WHAT DID THESE NUMBERS MEAN?!
Eagerly - and perhaps a little TOO eagerly, Zeke flipped open his text book and thumbed his way to page seven as instructed, and there he saw it. The Holy Grail of Answers! Without any hesitation and without any further prompting, Zeke inked his quill and started writing. First he'd write out the proper meaning and THEN he would get to the point of applying it. Yep.
ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
SEVEN (7): Your path will lead you to study, test, and analyze everything because you can't be satisfied with anything at face value. You'll seek the meaning of existence and will always be exploring mysteries and the unexplainable to find meaning for your life. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - sharing your wisdom of the metaphysical with others. You're a born seeker - philosophical, scientific, etc. - and because of your solitary investigation of the unknown, others will seek you out for your wisdom. Career/vocation options include any job that calls for analysis, deductive reasoning, or scientific knowledge, such as teaching, or any field where you'll be allowed to study or contemplate things bigger than you.
Emily Browne (1): This life path number is PERFECT for Emily. Like, it IS her. Emily is super strong and doesn't take crap from anyone. She's lived on her own for ages until I came along and she likes being by herself and doesn't like asking for help with anything. AND, she's a leader. A legit leader. She's the leading boss lady of the MLE. Like, she is THE BOSS of everyone there and if that's not strong then I dunno what is.Because she's in MLE she's also super brave and kicks bag guys butts and stuff and the MLE is a government department, so yeah. That ticks all the boxes, right?
So, for the future? She'll just keep being kick-butt? Like, she's already EVERYTHING a ONE is, so, yeah.
Professor Flamsteed (1): I can see how this describes Professor AireyFlamsteed too, see, cause he's also strong and independent like. He is a former Gryffindor - which proves that he's brave and stuff, and on top of that he's a leader as well because he's Gryffindor's Head of House. Like, the LEADER of our House. He has a pioneering spirit too, like, he's free... and is all into the pioneering of space stuff which I guess kinda counts, doesn't it? It's a very ONE thing to be like? So even though he's not into government work like Emily, and even though he doesn't run a bookstore, he's still strong and brave and a leader and explores/pioneers space stuff - hence the ONE.
I don't know much about predicting the future, Professor, so I'm just going to guess that Professor Flamsteed might just like, DISCOVER something super important about space and like LEAD more research in it or something, as well as LEAD Gryffindor to victory.
Zeke Rogers (Me) (7): I'm confused. This life path number is all about being smart and learning things and sharing learning and all of that business. But I'm really not. As much as I want to do well, I'm not the learning type, and defenately not as much as this number says I am. Not scientific or anything, it's not my style. The exploring mysteries bit I can relate to a little bit. I like exploring, and finding new things to do and try, and I suppose SOME things to learn. But SEVEN is not the number for me, this has to be a mistake. Even the sorting hat said I wasn't smart, so... it can't be right.
I can't see me teaching or doing any of the stuff it says I will/should/could???...... I dunno.
...
.....
His head hurt. And he had MILLIONS more questions now than when he started. Uggghhhhhh.
Angel smiled at the Professor and raised her hand. "I love Arithmancy Professor." Angel said truthfully it was beginning to be one of her favourite lessons after Herbology.

Your path will lead you to study, test, and analyze everything because you can't be satisfied with anything at face value.

I think this fits Ben because well he is always trying to explore things an at the minute he is very shy.. though I can see him going on to be a detective or an Auror of something because he's just got that leadership quality in him.
Angel looked at what she had said and smiled that looked about right.

AJ is one of these people who was a troublemaker at our Primary School but now she is learning compassion and tolerance, she is very caring as she showed a few days ago when I was really upset and I can see her going into some sort or art or international business when she leaves school.
So that was another one down now this was going to be the hard one because she didn't know the person, she was just her favourite writer and she had inspired her to achieve great stuff which was why this woman was down on here.

Enid was a great writer, she wrote the Chalet School series that consisted of around 60 books in the end... she had to juggle between money and the value of life and I think she learned how to do that in the end. She was a born leader since she was the creator of her own book series. She wasn't rich with her books but since she has died her books have been reprinted and her accomplishments and legacy has continued to this day.
Angel just stared at the parchment... how did it know all this? Seriously this was very creepy and Angel was a bit worried it knew everyone too well. She would ask the Professor later about this because one sentence in particular had got stuck in her head.

Pulling out her textbook Hady flipped through the pages slowly until she came to the correct page. She let her eyes skim over each passage for a moment before she picked up her quill and pulled her parchment over to her. Glad she had left space between name and it's life path numbers she began to write down even more notes.

Nodding her head slightly she slightly agreed with what she had read for this one. From what she knew about Abigail's life before she died matched this nearly to a T. One more and she would be finished. Chewing her lip in thought her eyes skimmed the page until she found the last one.

Life Path Number 4 - Your path will lead you to work hard and systematically. You'll learn the benefits of loyalty and following the rules, all the while remaining loyal and steadfast. Reliability is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - building for the long term. You're a born builder because security is a big deal for you. Others look to you to manage and control the situation. Career/vocation options include bookkeeping, accounting, and work where organization is valued - administration, education, business, etc.
Reading this one and then twice she smiled knowingly. This was just like the man she wished she had gotten to know. He wanted to be a teacher and always made sure everything was how it should be so their life would be secure. It made so much sense.
Letting out a deep breath the young girl set her quill down and turned her attention back to the Professor the best she could.

This right here was what he liked doing. Talking nonsense in an analytical way and making it sound somewhat decent was something he was good at, or so he liked to think so. And besides, he was always the one to write up the analysis. That was how it WORKED.
Another glance was made towards the seats near him and then around the class. Swear to Merlin, where WAS Sophie?
Shrugging his shoulders, Grayson picked up his quill and started writing away.

Textbook meaning: Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
My analysis: See, this is perfect. Nobody detains Lex, Lex detains YOU. Unless you're a professor or someone, of course. Lex has always been independent for as long as I've known her and you know what? She's a leader now. I say she's long since mastered the independent thing and has always been on her own two feet. Since that is true, we can assume that the rest will be true, too. She can gain more leadership opportunities and, frankly, I'll be very surprised if she doesn't. She's strong and courageous and doesn't take nonsense from anyone.
Textbook meaning: Your path will lead you to seek balance and harmony in all that you do and you'll learn the benefits of cooperation and compromise, as well as patience and peacekeeping. Once you've incorporated these traits, you'll move on to the next phase - drawing others together. You were born to relate to others - and make certain that others relate well to each other as well. But be sure to remember not to ignore yourself and your own needs while you're making sure everyone else is cooperating. People with 2 Life Paths are extremely sensitive that they need to be careful not to become the world's doormat. Career/vocation options include jobs that allow you to mediate, negotiate, take care of details, be in a supportive role, or gather facts.
My analysis: Again, perfect. Anyone who knows Cassia will know that aside from being freaking awesome, she's actually quite nice. It helps that she was the Head Girl because peacekeeping is what they should be doing and Cassia made a great Head Girl. She's patient and will listen to you but she also won't take nonsense from anybody. Guess this helps with peacekeeping and with drawing people together. I don't know if she's sensitive or not but she didn't seem sensitive to me.

Textbook meaning: Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge.

The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgment.
My analysis: This meaning says that I have a natural power and authority and that is something I'm all for. It also says that it won't be an easy path which is reasonable: it's hard to get people to listen to you when people decide to be stubborn and, frankly, annoying. But if it means that I'll be in charge then I'm ALL up for that. I'm not a prefect so if this being in charge and using my natural power and authoritywas meant to have happened already, then I'm screwed. Though, I was in charge of a small group of students when we were building a firepit for the old Groundskeeper. I'm all up for a career where I can utilise my superior skill of good judgement. I say bring it on!
SMIIIIIIIIIIIIRK.
All three were perfect. Just perfect. And he was very pleased with how they sounded, especially the meaning for his own. It was good to know that someone -- or something, in this case -- saw him for what he really was: a leader. Someone to look up to when times were tough because that someone could keep their cool and make good decisions. Uh huh. Talk about getting a major ego boost.

* Made up because Sir Gabriel really wanted to use Merlin
ONE (1) Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore. Leaders. Strong pioneering spirit. Determination.
In my personal opinion, this is true for both men. They were the founders of some of the most important pieces of magic in history...and are duly the most famous for those very reasons. History tells us they were leaders in their chosen fields, masters of what they knew...and they demonstrated enough impressive skill to secure 'Chocolate Frog Card' privileges.
FIVE (5) You'll have many forks along your path and you'll welcome each change as a new opportunity with unknown results. Change is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - championing freedom. You're progressive and super-resourceful, which make you equally good at many different trades. Career/vocation options include working with the public, advertising, publicity, or sales - any kind of work that calls for energizing power rather than routine. Travel is well-suited to you. I personally think my sister would be good in a public profession. Ruby makes friends very easily and is able to persuade people to her side and point of view with just her words. She's also very resourceful, which frustrates me because she doesn't stop to learn things. She also loathes routine and consistency. Traveling in her later life makes the most sense...
...and Zahra again.
She was SO loud....and SO obnoxious....and just......
GETTING ON HIS LAST NERVE.
He had nothing better to do...So...
STINK EYE!

NO doubt it was attractive. haha. She was giving him something TO stare at.
Plus she was looking for a distraction anyway, anything to keep from doing more interpretations.

Again. He was legit angry at her for no reason she understood.. again. "Sorry for ....whatever." Like existing, Zahra guessed."... I bet your life path number is the angry-for-no-reason-number." You know? Yeah. Definitely. Why wasn't she sitting closer to Mari and Toby and the Happy Puffs?

Seriously.......how was anyone supposed to think with her SHOUTING and whatever?

The LOUD thing was getting old. Everyone called her "that loud girl" and it was just... she wasn't all THAT loud.
So with that off of his chest, Zahra turned back to her notes and tried to EXIST LESS for Ruby's stupid brother.

Gabriel didn't even know why he was so frustrated at life at the moment...Why he was taking it out on her...Why he was....sweating...and slightly dizzy...
He wanted out of this room. He didn't like this room.
....................Whatever.
She had tried to ignore it, but she could do so no longer. They were acting like immature, whiny children. "Do I need to separate you two?" she asked, giving them both a long staaaaare. "This behavior will cease at once." Or punishment would be swift and decisive. No one messed around in Lolita Domingo's class and got away with it!

Being a master number, it is reduced no further.
He found it somewhat amusing that Adi and Angel both wound up as the same number. Did that speak something about why they were the two most special people in his life at the moment. His best friend and his girl both being the number 9 for their Life Path Number. Looking it up, he copied down the meaning into his parchment of notes as he read it so he didn't have to keep flipping back to the page.
SPOILER!!: Number 9
NINE (9): Your path will lead you to understand the interconnectedness of all things. It's a path of universal love that learns compassion and tolerance. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - tolerance for all and the importance of caring for each other. You're a born healer and your healing may take the form of writing, composing, painting, or sculpting - reaching others by truly connecting to them. You'll be learning how to let go, to surrender the self for greater good. Career/vocation options include the arts, international business, education, and health - any line of work designed to help, heal, or humanize.
Ben reread the interpretations a couple of times, letting what was being said try to sink into his mind before feeling ready to lay out the connections to his friends. He had to admit a good portion of it applied well with both Adi and Angel. They were both very compassionate people and good at caring for others. And Adi was a composer with his music. He could see them following the life paths suggested.
"De nada, estudiante," she said in response. She scanned his work while she was at it and nodded in agreement with his conclusions.

She very quickly grabbed her quill and completed her calculations for her dates very swiftly reducing them down into one digit, or one master number if that was the case. She started with her mother and made her way down to her cousin noting that all three were members of her own family. She had thought about including her muggle friends but none were really an inspiration to her, they were just her mates.

Arithmancy Lesson 1 - Core numbers
What is a core number?
A set of four numbers or calculations used to find more out about yourself. Can be used to discover more about your soul and the path in which you can take in the future.
Reduction Method
Method in which a number is reduced to a single digit by adding all the components in a number e.g.
152 -
1 + 5 + 2 = 8
734 -
7 + 3 + 4 = 14
1 + 4 = 5
967 -
9 + 6 + 7 = 22 2 + 2 = 4
NOTE TO SELF - Eleven, twenty-two and thirty-three are MASTER NUMBERS. This means they do not need to be reduced.
Life Path Numbers

23/03/2041
2 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 4 + 1 = 15

Felix Benjamin Ackerly -

5 + 1 + 2 + 7 + 9 = 24
2 + 4 = 6
Samson Trevellious Blake -
05/11/2068
5 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 6 + 8 = 23
2 + 3 = 5
Oh thank goodness Sammy was different to the other two. She supposed in some ways that Felix and her mother were very similar, they were both very hard working and everything but Feels was five. He was sort a joke addition purely because he lived in a mad house.
The whole interpretation idea of this subject was very much so like Divination and Layla doubted that any of it was actually true but still she wanted a good grade and so she kept going with her studies and flicked open her textbook to the right page and scanning over.

Life Path Numbers Interpretations
Vera and Felix Ackerly - 6
Textbook interpretation - "Your path will lead you to live responsibly at home and work to achieve balance between giving and receiving. This path is one of aid and service, and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - achieving balance between giving and receiving. You're a born counselor - sympathetic and caring - which makes others seek you out for advice. Career/vocation options include any job in the service industry where you can make life more comfortable, easy, and luxurious for others, including medicine, decorating, beauty products, training animals, teaching, and counseling."
My interpretation - My Ma has always been sympathetic towards her children and a very hard worker. She does not work in the service industry as such but she is high up in her industry and offers training to the employees below her. She's also been very good at teaching her two children and getting us all out of the dump we used to live in. As for Felix he is only five and so it is difficult to associate the life path towards him. However I can definitely see him being helpful, the kid is a genius and close to his Aunt who is a Healer.
Sammy Blake - 5
Textbook Interpretation - "You'll have many forks along your path and you'll welcome each change as a new opportunity with unknown results. Change is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - championing freedom. You're progressive and super-resourceful, which make you equally good at many different trades. Career/vocation options include working with the public, advertising, publicity, or sales - any kind of work that calls for energizing power rather than routine. Travel is well-suited to you."
My interpretation - Sammy IS quite energetic and definitely a people-person so he would technically make a great sales-person but I really don't think he'd waste his talents there. He's also well adapted to change, he was far more excited about his whole life being turned upside-down than I was.
All in all Layla wasn't sure whether she believed any of this and whether it was particularly accurate but that was what she thought. Once finished she put her quill down and looked back up for the next instructions.
What did the Ravenclaw have in terms of interpretations? Lolita scanned the page. "Insightful, sí." Well done.

Everything was falling apart, yet somehow he was holding it together, well for now. Flipping to the right chapter in his textbook, he read a little bit about the life path numbers and then got back to scribbling things down. Lots of things.

Kevin Hirase & Simon Holden: TWO (2): Your path will lead you to seek balance and harmony in all that you do and you'll learn the benefits of cooperation and compromise, as well as patience and peacekeeping. Once you've incorporated these traits, you'll move on to the next phase - drawing others together. You were born to relate to others - and make certain that others relate well to each other as well. But be sure to remember not to ignore yourself and your own needs while you're making sure everyone else is cooperating. People with 2 Life Paths are extremely sensitive that they need to be careful not to become the world's doormat. Career/vocation options include jobs that allow you to mediate, negotiate, take care of details, be in a supportive role, or gather facts.
Coral-Bay Aldrich ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
As far as the interpretations went though, he was lost. Or confused. Or uh, both? Because as much as he did look up to Kevin in certain ways, there was no way that Kevin was out to seek balance and harmony. More like havoc and mayhem. Even as a friend, Zander had to admit that Kevin did like to stir up trouble. It was his thing. Not cooperation and peacekeeping. "Professor... It says here that a lifepath number of two is for peacekeepers and stuff... But uh, I don't think this can be right... Because well, for Simon it is. But I don't really think this fits Kevin?" The were also at two ends of the spectrum, Simon and Kevin. Two very, VERY different ends.
SPOILER!!: Interpretations for 2/3 not including Kev
Simon:
Wants peace between friends and people he's surrounded with. Drawn to compromise instead of bickering and arguing. One of the career options is gathering facts and Simon loves to gather facts because he wants to be like Sherlock Holmes- well he wants to be the John Watson. He likes the facts and to make people feel comfortable and will do so for his whole life!!
CB:
Coral-Bay is a twin and she's always around her twin sister and they really love each other a lot. They're best friends. So maybe... Maybe this means that she will find independence and will become more of her own person down the road instead of always being associated with her sister? That way she'll be able to become her own person and stuff?? The book also says that she has quick mental agility, which HAS to be true, 'cause she's a Ravenclaw! AND she loves to read so a bookstore would be a perfect match. 'specially if it has history books because those are her favorites.
????
Mister Adair looked a bit confused, and some of what he had written seemed to indicate the same. "Mister Hirase is still young, señor. Some people take decades to fulfill their life path. It must have time to run its course, you see. Give the young man time, and you may see that the maturation process changes his priorities." Though some would say that acting out WAS a form of seeking balance and harmony, since it was often motivated by craving the attention and validation they perceived as lacking, or out of balance.
SPOILER!!: Toby

But he was SPOT ON so far. Heck yeah, Toby HIGH-FIVED HIMSELF in celebration. U GO, TOBES.
But now was the part that involved all the thinking and focusing and writing down and sitting still and basically... the bit Toby was never all that great with. He did, at least, have the kind of the imagination that helped him apply the abstract explanations of the numbers to the specific personalities he was looking at. So that was handy.
Toby flipped open his book and started rifling through to the right chapter, going one page at a time because it sort of worked as great fidgeting tool. And... y'know, delaying the part of the lesson that took actual brainwork. Avoidance was a great tool.
Once he found the chapter, Toby attempted to read through it, but he only got a couple of sentences in before his attention began to wander again, and he became distracted by the scratching of quills in the classroom. He shifted in his seat, as though looking for a more comfortable position, but really just wanting to move around a bit. Could he, like... get up and walk around? Maybe? Uhh... probably best not to ask. Instead Toby just sat there, jiggling his leg and bouncing his quill between two fingers as he attempted to read the chapter. Of course, that didn't last long, because he flicked INK on his notes and desk and uniform and nearly accidentally flung the quill away entirely.
He leaned back and stretched his arms out in front of him, totes limbering up for some writing. Under the desk, his knees continued to bounce and one foot tapped the floor. Okay. He could dO THIS.
SPOILER!!: Notes
Professor Botros
Life Path number = 9
The textbook says that when 9 is your life path number you understand interconnectedness of all things, and I guess Professor Botros DOES teach Runes and they sort of... connect stuff? Universal love, compassion and tolerance is TOTALLY what Professor Botros is all about, though, like he's totally reached that, I reckon. And caring for people. Wow, all this stuff makes a lot of sense. It says that people with this Life Path Number are all about helping people, like in healing. Professor Botros TOTALLY is all about helping people, he's super helpful to me with helping me get ready for my OWLs. And he's IN the education career, too! This life path number totally fits him. I reckon in the future he'll be all about... continuing to help people. Maybe when he retires which I hope isn't soon he'll fill his spare time with artsy stuff, and connect with people that way too. Either way, he's already caring and tolerant and helpful and all of that, so that TOTALLY works out.
Professor Fuller
Life Path number = 5
The number five life path number is all about change and stuff, and how you're good with change and travelling and go through all sorts of changes in your life and that works for you. Maybe that's true with Professor Fuller before, but I mean, don't we ALL go through a lot of changes? If this is accurate, then in the future he's gonna go down a whole different route in his life path and stuff... And he IS resourceful, 'cause he was a Slytherin, and they're known for being resourceful, but none of the rest makes sense as far as I know. I don't think Professor Fuller is about to go off become a salesman or anything. As far as I know he's done teaching and stuff since forever ago. But the championing freedom thing might work? Maybe he'll try to liberate the House Elves or something.
Professor Thompson
Life Path number = 1
Well, Professor Thompson is independent and stuff, and he's DEFINITELY a strong individual. He could probably lift about TEN of me with EASE. And he's a TOTAL leader too, I mean, he's obviously a teacher. But you can like totally tell that he's a guy that's in charge and stuff, y'know? In classes I don't think anyone undermines him or anything 'cause they KNOW he's the BOSS. And yeah, mental agility, he has that too. He was a Ravenclaw, after all. And he IS in a career which uses the brain, being a teacher and all. A really good one too. He could probably rule the school if he wanted to, and if he had the chance.
Okay DONE. Toby dropped his quill on top of his parchment and looked up and around the room, back to bouncing in his seat again. Man, this was a LOT of sitting still and concentrating and writing, and though he'd gotten super distracted about EIGHT BILLION TIMES, Toby was DONE. He sat there in his seat, BOUNCING and tapping his legs with his hands, feeling the energy build and build inside of him. As soon as they were done here, he was gonna go sprint laps of the castle 'cause WOW WOW WOW.
Wow. En serioso.. She really could not go over to him and look at his work without the risk of slapping him silly. The boy was physically incapable of sitting still or she would MAKE him do so. But why waste her time?

I always say Benny's logical. He takes every topic into consideration, using logic to make decisions when he's faced with choices. Benny never wastes an opportunity to share his thoughts or knowledge with others when they need it. He wants to work with Magical Creatures in the future so that would be classified as "scientific knowledge" or "any field where you'll be allowed to study or contemplate things bigger than you."

4+1+2+2+0+7+2=18=1+8=9
AJ has compassion. A lot of it. It's just the tolerance part she needs to work on. But she is a Healer. She really forms this bond with people that make them feel better in no time. Who would know better than someone who she's done it to? Most likely she'll have a job in the future that will let her continue to do this for others.
Josephina Faith Nairne (née Hadley)
(April 2nd, 2044)
4+2+2+0+4+4=16=1+6=7
I suppose it's safe to say Professor Head of House Hadley has an inquisitive mind. Why else would she have chosen to teach Arithmancy at first? I mean, this is one complicated subjects so she had to have had the motivation and desire to understand it ALL. She then moved on to share this knowledge with her students as she became a Professor here at Hogwarts. We all know loads of persons do seek her wisdom. Especially her Hufflepuffs when they need it.
Whew! Adi wasn't that good at interpretations stuff but he had tried his best here. He wondered what Arithmancy lessons with Hadley would be like. Not that you aren't doing a great job, Professor Domingo. Hehe.
Lolita nodded when she made it to Aditya. "Your observations about Profesora Hadley are spot on, chico." She should know; she had known the woman for... well, to think about such matters would be revealing her age, and that was not an option.

THREE (3): Your path will entice you to be both spontaneous and creative, to live your life with joy and imagination. You will learn the benefits of optimism and enthusiasm, and how to express your emotions and exuberance. Once you've mastered these concepts, you'll move on to the next phase - inspiring others. You're a born communicator and your wit and light-heartedness will help others see the joy in any situation. Artistic, creative, and articulate are words to describe someone with a 3 Life Path. Career/vocation options should relate to anything artistic - writing, speaking, designing, illustrating, dancing, etc.

This really suited who Linda was because she was a photographer and musician which are very creative professions. She certainly inspired many people. This is a perfect summary.
Elizabeth Victoria Montgomery
(15th April 1933)
Life Path Number = 8
SPOILER!!: Elizabeth Montgomery's Life Path Number Notes
EIGHT (8): Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge. You're a born boss and your natural power and authority cause others to look to you when a decision needs to be made. The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgement.
SPOILER!!: Sam's Notes on Elizabeth
I think Elizabeth had a legacy due to her acting. I think she was a natural leader and I think that is due to the fact that she was more comfortable being friends with men rather than women.
Mary Anna McCartney
(28th August 1969)
Life Path Number: 7
SPOILER!!: Mary McCartney's Life Path Number Notes
SEVEN (7): Your path will lead you to study, test, and analyze everything because you can't be satisfied with anything at face value. You'll seek the meaning of existence and will always be exploring mysteries and the unexplainable to find meaning for your life. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - sharing your wisdom of the metaphysical with others. You're a born seeker - philosophical, scientific, etc. - and because of your solitary investigation of the unknown, others will seek you out for your wisdom. Career/vocation options include any job that calls for analysis, deductive reasoning, or scientific knowledge, such as teaching, or any field where you'll be allowed to study or contemplate things bigger than you.
SPOILER!!: Sam's notes on Mary
Mary works as a photographer and has released a cookbook. In a way, photography and cooking allows her to study and contemplate things bigger than her. Photography looks at the bigger picture. There can be a story worth studying behind the eyes of a portrait subject. Mary likes cooking and cooking requires tasting which is a form of analysis.
On to yet another Ravenclaw. Lolita perused the girl's work briefly. "You have the beginnings of truly excellent analysis skills, my dear." A faint smile touched her lips.

Once again she put quill to parchment and got busy.
Well that was interesting, she shared a life path number with her father. This was definitely being owled now even if it turned out completely dull and unrelated as most things in Arithmancy tended to.
Lex pried open her text to check the matter.
But then....what was one to do when the Arithmancy textbook finally hit a nail on the head moment...? Lex had never anticipated as much coming from the this subject though she'd admit that on the off occasion it had a knack for being right, like now with the independence. The born leader thing was especially her father and something she denounced for herself thanks.
Wow.
SPOILER!!: Interpretation
My father and I: Evidently me and my father are epic people who were destined to rule the world one way or another. My father's actually in the field of business so funny the book should mention that and we both have determination and whatever else the paragraph said. Independence too, we take care of ourselves and don't need anyone else to get stuff done for us.
Oh yes. Alexa Cambridge had finally come to see that Arithmancy was not all just a made up waste of time. "Pretty close, no?" she asked the student leader with a wry I-told-you-so sort of smile.

My father is a very joyful person who loves life. He doesn't show that side to everyone though. As a person in the military, he has to maintain a serious persona. He has no problem expressing his emotions. He is very straightforward and what you see is what you get. I believe that he has passed the inspiring others phase. He is an inspiration to many, especially to me. My father is a musician, so he is an artist in that way. Perhaps he is destined for an artistic type career after he retires from the Navy.

FIVE (5): You'll have many forks along your path and you'll welcome each change as a new opportunity with unknown results. Change is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - championing freedom. You're progressive and super-resourceful, which make you equally good at many different trades. Career/vocation options include working with the public, advertising, publicity, or sales - any kind of work that calls for energizing power rather than routine. Travel is well-suited to you.

My mother has definitely had a lot of change in her life. She left her home in France and moved to the U.S. and back again. As a military wife, she has dealt with having to pick up and move her family to new places frequently. Being well suited to travel definitely applies to her. My mother is a witch, but she has lived in the muggle world all of her married life. She has definitely had to adapt, but has done so with enthusiasm and has never once complained. She is a professional photographer and her work is definitely not routine. Maybe she will use that somehow in advertising or publicity one day.
SPOILER!!: 9
NINE (9): Your path will lead you to understand the interconnectedness of all things. It's a path of universal love that learns compassion and tolerance. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - tolerance for all and the importance of caring for each other. You're a born healer and your healing may take the form of writing, composing, painting, or sculpting - reaching others by truly connecting to them. You'll be learning how to let go, to surrender the self for greater good. Career/vocation options include the arts, international business, education, and health - any line of work designed to help, heal, or humanize.

Landry is my best friend from childhood, who happens to be a muggle. She is an inspiration to me because she is the kindest, most supportive person I know. She doesn't need to learn compassion and tolerance. She has always had it. I believe that she is destined for a career in muggle medicine. She has been caring toward people and animals all of her life.

At last Jasmine was finished with interpretations. It took longer than she expected, but she got through it. She was able to find connections between the numbers and all three of the people she studied. Maybe you could always find a connection if you looked hard enough. Tired of thinking, Jasmine put down her quill and closed her eyes for a second. Then she waited to hear what Professor Domingo had to say next.
"Once again you have outdone yourself, my dear." Yes, she had pegged this one to have signs of a top notch Arithmancer in the very first lesson last year, and don't you forget it. "Your consistent effort has yet to fail you."

After smiling at the woman, Lux turned to the correct page in her textbook so that she could work on the interpretations. This part could be tedious, but a lot of the time it was pretty easy.
She copied down what the textbook said and then her summary for each person:

2 + 4 = 6
Victor Bay
SIX (6): Your path will lead you to live responsibly at home and work to achieve balance between giving and receiving. This path is one of aid and service, and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - achieving balance between giving and receiving. You're a born counselor - sympathetic and caring - which makes others seek you out for advice. Career/vocation options include any job in the service industry where you can make life more comfortable, easy, and luxurious for others, including medicine, decorating, beauty products, training animals, teaching, and counseling.
According to the textbook, Bay's path is related to helping others and I can see that because he is a very kind and caring person who loves to help others whenever he can. Once he has learned this lesson, he will move on to the next level which is reaching a balance between giving and receiving. He is suited working where he can counsel others or give other forms of assistance. Bay is a Prefect, so he is in a position where he can help other students and the Professors.
Airey Flamsteed
ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
According to the textbook, Professor Flamsteed's path is related to independence and becoming a strong person. Once mastering those traits, the next stage is leadership. Professor Flamsteed is already in a position of leadership because he is a teacher of Astronomy. He is in control of his classroom and a very good teacher. He is a determined person because even though he couldn't become an astronaut, he remains passionate about his field and enjoys educating students about space.
Cosgrach Culloden
EIGHT (8): Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge. You're a born boss and your natural power and authority cause others to look to you when a decision needs to be made. The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgment.
According to the textbook, Professor Culloden's path is related to being able to tell the difference between money and the real importance of life. He needs to learn what to do with his authority, but it won't be easy for him. After he achieves this, the next level is him being in charge. Professor Culloden is a teacher who knows how to be authoritative in his classroom, so he has already reached this stage of his life. He has good authority and is a really good potions master.
Oh, a smile of appreciation? Maybe Hufflepuffs weren't ALL that bad. When she made it to the girl again, she nodded her head. "Very thorough, Miss Carrington." Why had so many people picked Professor Flamsteed, the blithering idiot who talked far too much?

Nonetheless, he took up his quill and applied the reduction method looking perhaps sad or frustrated.

Sophie Newell, March 17, 2070=2

Caleb Newell, March 17, 2070=2
1+7+3+2+0+7+0=20, 2+0=2
Tye Clancy "Sir Honeydraught" Mitchell, July 3, 2050=8
3+7+2+0+5+0=17, 1+7=8
Had Professor Domingo really needed him to reduce the birthdays of both twins? He did anyway as it was numbers and showing the work 'n all. Also, did this mean that Caleb and Sophie were bound to have the same outcome of their life's path? Cutty felt a tug of stimulation at what a fabulous study in Arithmancy this could make. Maybe it had already been done. He should go to Professor Domingo and ask afterward.
Cutty redipped his quill into the dark brown ink and continued on with his analysis. The thought of either one of the Newell twins as in danger of becoming dormats was hilarious, but intriguing.
Text Cut: Analysis
The case of Twins, Sophie & Caleb Newell-Although born on the same date and therefore sharing the same life path number, I can see where the books explanation might apply to both twins but in different ways. Caleb and Sophie don't have any of the traits mentioned by the book belonging to the number 2 as a life path number, but this might be a sign that they have a lot to learn in their lives. Possibly from each other as the compromise and cooperation bit sounds like them when they're together, but only with one another and not lately since Grayson broke them up. Also, I can see how their presence might lead to the uniting of others. Caleb's presence seemed to unite Grayson and Sophie.
My neighbor, Sir Honeydraught-The life path number for Sir Honeydraught came to be 8. In this case the life path number's accuracy was rather easy to see. The man is a very successful wizard and knows the value of money and life quite well. He also runs his own business and none of this underlings cross him. He's the ultimate authority. I think he might have a Legacy. I'm not too sure. I'll have to owl him.
Cutty looked down at his parchment wondering where this exercise was going.
And what did the Mordaunt boy have? She had not made it over to him very much in this lesson. "Indeed, Mister Mordaunt. It is indeed a sign that their Path is incomplete and they have a long journey yet to complete." More head nodding.

Oh wait she was behind the class now. What was she supposed to do? Look up the meanings of the numbers? Ugh. She buried her nose in the book and tried to look like she was hard at work.
What... had she done? "You may need to relook at your calculations, estudiante. You seem to be switching some numbers without reason." And that was the nice way of saying it. The real way would be that she had done everything incorrectly. Alas, she was in a generous mood at present.

He'd barely noticed that the Professor was making her way around, so when she spoke to him - and not telling him off for once - it made him jump slightly in his seat.
...
As much as he wanted to NOT talk to her ever again, he couldn't keep the words from escaping his mouth. "Thanks, Professor." ....
....
Still didn't mean she was forgiven for being a meanypants though.
The lesson was progressing though, and to his delight, he as getting answers! Answers to the millions of questions that were forming in his head simultaneously. WHAT DID THESE NUMBERS MEAN?!
Eagerly - and perhaps a little TOO eagerly, Zeke flipped open his text book and thumbed his way to page seven as instructed, and there he saw it. The Holy Grail of Answers! Without any hesitation and without any further prompting, Zeke inked his quill and started writing. First he'd write out the proper meaning and THEN he would get to the point of applying it. Yep.
ONE (1): Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
SEVEN (7): Your path will lead you to study, test, and analyze everything because you can't be satisfied with anything at face value. You'll seek the meaning of existence and will always be exploring mysteries and the unexplainable to find meaning for your life. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - sharing your wisdom of the metaphysical with others. You're a born seeker - philosophical, scientific, etc. - and because of your solitary investigation of the unknown, others will seek you out for your wisdom. Career/vocation options include any job that calls for analysis, deductive reasoning, or scientific knowledge, such as teaching, or any field where you'll be allowed to study or contemplate things bigger than you.
Emily Browne (1): This life path number is PERFECT for Emily. Like, it IS her. Emily is super strong and doesn't take crap from anyone. She's lived on her own for ages until I came along and she likes being by herself and doesn't like asking for help with anything. AND, she's a leader. A legit leader. She's the leading boss lady of the MLE. Like, she is THE BOSS of everyone there and if that's not strong then I dunno what is.Because she's in MLE she's also super brave and kicks bag guys butts and stuff and the MLE is a government department, so yeah. That ticks all the boxes, right?
So, for the future? She'll just keep being kick-butt? Like, she's already EVERYTHING a ONE is, so, yeah.
Professor Flamsteed (1): I can see how this describes Professor AireyFlamsteed too, see, cause he's also strong and independent like. He is a former Gryffindor - which proves that he's brave and stuff, and on top of that he's a leader as well because he's Gryffindor's Head of House. Like, the LEADER of our House. He has a pioneering spirit too, like, he's free... and is all into the pioneering of space stuff which I guess kinda counts, doesn't it? It's a very ONE thing to be like? So even though he's not into government work like Emily, and even though he doesn't run a bookstore, he's still strong and brave and a leader and explores/pioneers space stuff - hence the ONE.
I don't know much about predicting the future, Professor, so I'm just going to guess that Professor Flamsteed might just like, DISCOVER something super important about space and like LEAD more research in it or something, as well as LEAD Gryffindor to victory.
Zeke Rogers (Me) (7): I'm confused. This life path number is all about being smart and learning things and sharing learning and all of that business. But I'm really not. As much as I want to do well, I'm not the learning type, and defenately not as much as this number says I am. Not scientific or anything, it's not my style. The exploring mysteries bit I can relate to a little bit. I like exploring, and finding new things to do and try, and I suppose SOME things to learn. But SEVEN is not the number for me, this has to be a mistake. Even the sorting hat said I wasn't smart, so... it can't be right.
I can't see me teaching or doing any of the stuff it says I will/should/could???...... I dunno.
...
.....
His head hurt. And he had MILLIONS more questions now than when he started. Uggghhhhhh.
How eloquent. 'Keep being kick-butt' indeed. Ah, first year students. "Don't be too hard on yourself, Mister Rogers," she said after reading his self-analysis. "You have just begun your formal education. Your mind has yet to blossom to its full potential. Give yourself time."

I think this fits Ben because well he is always trying to explore things an at the minute he is very shy.. though I can see him going on to be a detective or an Auror of something because he's just got that leadership quality in him.
Angel looked at what she had said and smiled that looked about right.

AJ is one of these people who was a troublemaker at our Primary School but now she is learning compassion and tolerance, she is very caring as she showed a few days ago when I was really upset and I can see her going into some sort or art or international business when she leaves school.
So that was another one down now this was going to be the hard one because she didn't know the person, she was just her favourite writer and she had inspired her to achieve great stuff which was why this woman was down on here.

Enid was a great writer, she wrote the Chalet School series that consisted of around 60 books in the end... she had to juggle between money and the value of life and I think she learned how to do that in the end. She was a born leader since she was the creator of her own book series. She wasn't rich with her books but since she has died her books have been reprinted and her accomplishments and legacy has continued to this day.
Angel just stared at the parchment... how did it know all this? Seriously this was very creepy and Angel was a bit worried it knew everyone too well. She would ask the Professor later about this because one sentence in particular had got stuck in her head.
"It appears that your interpretations are particularly accurate. Either you know your selections well, or they have more obvious ways of showing these characteristics." She hoped it was the former, but.. Well, she hoped it was the former.

Hady didn't think this exactly fit Jaxon but she let it go for now and continued on. There was more work to do.
Nodding her head slightly she slightly agreed with what she had read for this one. From what she knew about Abigail's life before she died matched this nearly to a T. One more and she would be finished. Chewing her lip in thought her eyes skimmed the page until she found the last one.
Reading this one and then twice she smiled knowingly. This was just like the man she wished she had gotten to know. He wanted to be a teacher and always made sure everything was how it should be so their life would be secure. It made so much sense.
Letting out a deep breath the young girl set her quill down and turned her attention back to the Professor the best she could.
Next was a young Slytherin. "You're doing well in your first lesson, my dear. You have a knack for this, I would venture to guess." A curious mind went well with the subject.

Shrugging his shoulders, Grayson picked up his quill and started writing away.

Textbook meaning: Your path will take you down the road to independence, and you'll learn its benefits standing on your own two feet and becoming a strong individual. Once you've honed these traits, you move to the next level - leadership. You're a born leader and your path in life will present you with many opportunities to demonstrate your ability. Your strong pioneering spirit, courage, and determination will serve you well along this road. Career/vocation options include fields where you can use your quick mental agility, such as business, health, government, or even a bookstore.
My analysis: See, this is perfect. Nobody detains Lex, Lex detains YOU. Unless you're a professor or someone, of course. Lex has always been independent for as long as I've known her and you know what? She's a leader now. I say she's long since mastered the independent thing and has always been on her own two feet. Since that is true, we can assume that the rest will be true, too. She can gain more leadership opportunities and, frankly, I'll be very surprised if she doesn't. She's strong and courageous and doesn't take nonsense from anyone.
Textbook meaning: Your path will lead you to seek balance and harmony in all that you do and you'll learn the benefits of cooperation and compromise, as well as patience and peacekeeping. Once you've incorporated these traits, you'll move on to the next phase - drawing others together. You were born to relate to others - and make certain that others relate well to each other as well. But be sure to remember not to ignore yourself and your own needs while you're making sure everyone else is cooperating. People with 2 Life Paths are extremely sensitive that they need to be careful not to become the world's doormat. Career/vocation options include jobs that allow you to mediate, negotiate, take care of details, be in a supportive role, or gather facts.
My analysis: Again, perfect. Anyone who knows Cassia will know that aside from being freaking awesome, she's actually quite nice. It helps that she was the Head Girl because peacekeeping is what they should be doing and Cassia made a great Head Girl. She's patient and will listen to you but she also won't take nonsense from anybody. Guess this helps with peacekeeping and with drawing people together. I don't know if she's sensitive or not but she didn't seem sensitive to me.

Textbook meaning: Your path will lead you to work out the difference between money and the real value of life. You must learn what to do with your natural power and authority, but this is not an easy path. Once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - being in charge.

The reward or you won't necessarily be financial but may come in terms of accomplishment and legacy. Career/vocation options include any field where you can be in charge and where you can utilize your superior skill of good judgment.
My analysis: This meaning says that I have a natural power and authority and that is something I'm all for. It also says that it won't be an easy path which is reasonable: it's hard to get people to listen to you when people decide to be stubborn and, frankly, annoying. But if it means that I'll be in charge then I'm ALL up for that. I'm not a prefect so if this being in charge and using my natural power and authoritywas meant to have happened already, then I'm screwed. Though, I was in charge of a small group of students when we were building a firepit for the old Groundskeeper. I'm all up for a career where I can utilise my superior skill of good judgement. I say bring it on!
SMIIIIIIIIIIIIRK.
All three were perfect. Just perfect. And he was very pleased with how they sounded, especially the meaning for his own. It was good to know that someone -- or something, in this case -- saw him for what he really was: a leader. Someone to look up to when times were tough because that someone could keep their cool and make good decisions. Uh huh. Talk about getting a major ego boost.
Accurate meanings? He thought so!
This one had a feisty spirit. In fact, he reminded her of a young Lolita Domingo in some sense. "Try not to let it go to your head, Whitlock," was all she said.
"Try to finish up your analysis in the next few minutes, estudiantes!"
He'd been missed. And not in the 'absence makes the heart grow fonder' kind of way.
Toby raised his hand way way wayyyyyy up in the air, so that he was almost in danger of lifting off his seat entirely.
"Professor," he called out, glancing over at Z and that Gabe kid because wOW, but then back to the Arithmancy PROfessor. "Professor Domingo, I think you accidentally missed me out." Total accident, of course, but that was super okay! He waggled his fingers of his still raised hand. "Are my interpretations any good?" He need feedback 'cause Arithmancy was a subject he NEEDED to improve on before his OWLs and all. Toby made sure to smile super big and friendly after he asked, TOO.
He was eager for KNOWLEDGE.
