Tiberius couldn't help but smile, nodding as he heard her mention that number do not control events. He thought he might rather like her perspective on Arithmancy.

Placing down his quill and raising his hand, Tiberius offered his definition. "It could be a mere coincidence if you, say, missed a train and, as a result, met someone that you ended up dating. Others might call that fate, though you'd have to believe things are entirely pre-determined for that to be the case. But, if you were looking for a definition, I'd say a mere coincidence is something that happens as result of something else, unrelated. Because X happened, then Y was able to happen. Y is the coincidence."

Did that make any sense?
