Noting down the Professor's explanations as fast as he could, he went over his notes to try to see if it makes sense to him. It did a little. But as they were quickly moving to calculations he took out a fresh parchment and started matching the letters of his name to the Chaldean system like so...



A 9? He leafed through his textbook to look up the meaning, curious as to what it would say


Whoah. The Ravenclaw blinked and re-read the text. This sounded like a tall order. Could he ever live up to anything that it says? And he was destined for... broader horizons? Reach out and help someone? He was painfully shy, although he is making an effort to be more sociable, he would usually just do things alone where he was most comfortable. He shook his head. At this point he feels a bit intimidated by it all.



He straightened up as he looked out the open windows and had a thought. The Chaldean system actually uses the name that one most commonly goes by. He usually just goes by his nickname Vickers. Pulling out a fresh parchment, he started to recalculate using his nickname


Hmm, so this time it was a 10. Vickers leafed through a couple more pages to look up the double digit meanings and read the following...


Errr okayyyy. This wasnt helping. Once again it was touching on his weaknesses-- confidence and such, and the whole universal good and evil depending on which side of the moral spectrum he grows into sort of thing.

He straigtened up and raised his hand "Professor, given that we are using the Chaldean system, would you prefer that we use our full name or just the name we most often use?"
