"Alright Mr. Odessa." With that, the Slytherin should know that she's watching him and she let him have his fun, but it's time for Divination.
And there was SOMETHING she was wishing to hear, finally! "Excellent, Mr. Branxton here is on to what I was hinting at in my, apparently not specific enough question." She went to the board and wrote down the four suits and their corresponding elements.
"Like those of you who remembered from the last lesson on Tarot, for those of you who didn't please get this in your notes, we learned that each card suit matches with a classical element. Wands goes with Fire, Cups with Water, Pentacles/Coins are for Earth and Swords match with Wind. Why I praised Mr. Branxton's mention of an old answer of Mr. Odessa's, was because he mentioned that these suits aren't limited to match only one thing." She paused to let that sink in for a second. "So far we've seen that they can match with elements and even Hogwarts houses. Today we will learn about something else that they match with."
She raised her hand and held it out to show them. "Raise your hand about a foot from your face, palm side facing you and examine it. It's no doubt pretty different than those belonging to your classmates."
"Hand types also correspond to the suits of the Tarot Minor Arcana. "The air hand is characterized by having long, thin fingers, with a square palm. The Earth hand is usually characterized with a squarish palm, and short fingers deeply carved lines in it." She paused and then continued, hoping they were all writing this down. "The fire hand has a squarish palm which is usually longer in length than their short fingers. And last but not least the water hand. What are the characteristics of a water hand?" They could use the process of elimination to figure it out, their textbook or previous knowledge. She had faith in them.[/color]
Alright. Awesome. West smiled. And y'know he didn't even need to elaborate on what he knew on account of Dylan and Mo had both done that
for him. So obviously he got credit for that right? Educating other students? More smiles for the professor.
And now stuff about hands.
"Water hands have short sorta oval palms that are usually wider than they are long, their fingers are long and flexible and are equal to the height of the palm." He offered up, with HIS hand in the air. More detail in this answer because... well, the professor had actually asked for it. He thought it was right. Ish. Might've made some of it up.
