SPOILER!!: Jordan, Selina and Kurumi Quote:

The only other person he knew was Kurumi, but they hadn't really spoken since the incident a while ago. Oh well, hopefully they could work together? He sidled up to her, "Hey Kurumi, I know we haven't talked too much recently..." he took a breath. "Would it be okay if I worked with you? I mean, we need to have a partner for this don't we?" he gestured to his saucer. Quote:

After all she was the one who could see the future, but she was not one to go and publicize that often. In fact, she had only just gotten around to telling Gideon and even that had been hard. It had been really hard for her. So she was not going around and tell Thereos he was a butt head because she saw the future. Not worth the aggravation.
When she told them all it was time for partners she looked around the room for Kurumi. She smiled at the Gryffindor who wanted to be partners with her and said, "Hey... do you mind if I take her off of your hands? We tend to do this thing together..." Quote:

Maybe it had something to do with that vein that ran directly to your heart, so there was more of a connection? Isn't that why people wore wedding rings and stuff on their left ring finger? Or maybe she had made that up. No matter, Kurumi did as was instructed and swirled its contents three times before heading to the front to grab a tray and returning to her seat.
She turned the cup upside down and waited for its contents to do whatever it was that it was going to do.
Kurumi's head snapped around when she heard someone speak to her and she bit her lower lip. It wasn't that she was against the idea, she didn't have anything personally against Jordan besides him being way too pushy about a sensitive subject, but there were certain...things that made his request a little...difficult for the prefect to fulfill.
Thankfully, Selina sort of came to her rescue. "S-Sorry Jordan, I'll partner with you for something else, okay?" As long as that something else wasn't a Divination in class assignment that is. She really hoped that he didn't press the issue. Yes, they could probably work in threes for this, but Divination was really something that Selina and Kurumi shared - and not because they had a mutual love for the subject. It had always been there time and, in a weird sort of way, was one of the few moments where Kurumi felt like she was the one helping Selina and playing the role of the big sister. After all, it had been Kurumi to watch over Selina these past few years when it came to her ability and Kurumi wasn't about to stop now. It was going to take graduation to tear her apart from her best friend.
Kurumi scooted her chair a little closer to Selina's and pushed her tray towards her where the remaining water seeped out from under it. "You...um...ready to tell me all about how I am going to suffer but be happy about it?" So they would be reading tea leaves for this class, or tessomancy as the professor called it. Certainly a different approach from the two lessons on versions of scrying that they had been taught and attempted for homework earlier in the year. But should be interesting to try he guessed so as the centaur instructed Kurumi and an unknown Hufflepuff to pass out cups and tea to each and ever one of them.
"Thank you," he said with a smile and a nod to both students as he accepted first one and then the other. Gideon took a careful sip of the tea, making a slight face wishing it wasn't quite so hot. He blew on it and let it cool just a bit before taking another sip and then drinking as he listened to the professor explain what they were to do. It took a little while but he was soon done with the tea in his cup with only the leaves in the bottom.
Now to find someone to pair up with.
Looking around for a partner, Gideon noticed as people were already starting to be paired off. He caught sight of Kurumi and Selina together and a younger Gryffindor boy who seemed to have lost out on his choice so he decided to be helpful to his fellow lion. "Hey," he said as he walked over to him, briefly changing glances with the girls to let them know he would see that the younger boy was taken care of. Sure they could have done it as a trio with Jordan and he himself could find another partner, but since Selina's revelation to him, he could understand the two best friends wanting to do the assignment together and alone and here was a perfect solution to the issue.
"I"m Gideon. Would ye care to be my partner?"
