Nodding her head at Kennedy, Louisa pulled his saucer and started flipping through her book absently, her eyes staring at the vague shapes before them. "Err… " She had no idea what the heck she was staring at. The Ravenclaw stopped flipping through the pages and let the book sit on her lap as she brought her face down and VERY close to the saucer, "I'd say… this.. little triangle.." Which was nothing like a triangle except for its three points, ".. with the trail behind.. represents a kite!" Lifting her face to look at Kennedy sitting opposite of her. "And a kite means.." Turning her head back down toward the book that started to get flipped again, ".. that.."
Uh oh.
Louisa hesitated, frowned at the words and talked slowly, "Vanishing pleasures and benefits, or scandal." She lifted her gaze to meet the boy, his face should show if he indeed had a scandal coming his way or not. Was he up to something not good? Hmm.
The fourth year student stared down at the saucer again, "And there is.. this… ball with two small circles inside and.. a straight horizontal line downward." Hmm. That'd be… "A skull probably!" Enthusiastic about her discovery, Louisa turned back to the book and flipped more pages, "It means.. danger in your path." Gulp.
Was this a death eater or something? Louisa's eyesbrows were raised as she looked up at him. "I mean it could be. It really depends on the way the reader sees the shapes." An uncertain smile stretched on her lips. "Ahem. Would you like me to reinterpret them or do you want to give it a go? My saucer, I mean." She was pretty curious about her tea leaves now.
Kennedy nodded when Louisa identified the first shape which was a kite, and then she stayed quiet. He stretched his neck to try and have a peek at the text book she was reading. Of course he had his, but it was close and she seemed to know what she was doing.
He cocked his head to the side. Vanishing pleasures and benefits... and scandal? What was that supposed to mean? Ken shrugged and gave her a confused look, and then turned his attention to the next shape.
A SKULL?
Holly cricket, was he going to die? Maybe, not, but Louisa said it meant danger. He pulled the cup to him and nodded. It was a skull. That would only mean his.... Kennedy was going to have to write a letter right after this class.
Kennedy shook his head and looked up.
"It's all right like that," he said, then peered inside Louisa's cup. He began by taking all of the little leaves in consideration until several shapes began to resurface.
"Here," he said, pointing at the shape,
"this looks like a hammer. Which means..." He opened the text book provided to them and looked at the index and looked for the specific page.
"Triumph over adversity or...troublesome little tasks which you are reluctant to undertake," he read. He looked up at her, making sure she heard him.
He looked into the cup again and took a while longer to identify the next figure.
"Here, there's another one, a fish," he said and once again searched for the specific page on the text book.
"It means good news from abroad." That was good right? Why didn't he get a fish instead.
