"Everyone got their highlighting done?" she called as a way to bring the class attention back onto herself.

"Time to figure out what to do with them." Another swish of her wand made a change to her diagram. "Much like winning tic-tac-toe, the Arrows of Pythagoras happen when you form three in a row with your highlighted numbers. The 1-2-3 pattern I have is the Arrow of Planning, which is a positive Arrow pointing out my the strengths and weaknesses coming from my organizational mindset." She checked her notes briefly before finishing with, "The names of the other Arrows and their meanings are in chapter thirty for your reference."

She knew not all of them would have arrows, so she had to make sure she addressed that. "Positive Arrows are not necessarily good things, it just refers to the fact that the Arrow was found using the presence of three in a row." And if their minds were whirring, they might realize that the absence of numbers in a row also had significance. "Keeping in mind that Arrows represent strong traits in your personality, I would like you to share your ideas for what it might mean when someone does not have any positive Arrows present. Discuss with your partner, jot it down, talk to me.. Just as long as you are interacting with the question!"

Between reading the chapter for this class and listening to Professor Tanner, Rooney skim read the positive arrows section and made noted underneath his previous notes. Hand raised whilst he did that. "Professor? Does it mean anything if you have two in a row? Half a line? Does it mean I should be aspiring to that line?" It wasn't like he could change his birthday, but if it said he should be aiming for something then he supposed that he would consider that most definitely.

SPOILER!!: Rooney's Notes

"But I think that having no arrows means that you're--oh." His gaze continued from the Professor over to Norah, the Hufflepuff Prefect with wide eyes and a sympathetic smile.

Y'know, all those arrows she didn't have. What a rip off. "I guess it could mean that you don't have any special good things about you." Which was COMPLETELY unfair, in case you were wondering. "Or maybe you do have positive things but one just doesn't stand out. Or they're SO positive that they all stand out so there can't be an importantest one. I don't have any positive arrows, so I hope my personality is still good without them." This mood she was in was horridly funky and didn't FEEL very good, though, so maybe she was going to be stuck like this forever and ever because that's what her numbers said. Where could one apply for a different birthday?

She did have a negative arrow, though. What a life.

Actually, alongside the smile he stood up and moved towards her desk, giving her a tight cuddle. "You're pretty and positive and lovely and we all like you in here and out of here. AND you're a Prefect, Miss Norah. Only really great people are those." Cue a look at Miss Sophie Brown, Head Girl of Hogwarts, and a BIG SMILE. And more cuddles for Miss Norah.

He should probably move back to his seat now....

Bronwyn Arithmancy Arrows of Pythagoras Date of birth: August 1st, 2075 Numbers (birth order): 8 1 2 7 5 Numbers (num. order): 1 2 5 7 8 3 6 9 2 5 8 → → → Positive, Arrow of Emotions 1 4 7 Positive Arrows Arrow of Emotions (positive 2, 5, 8) Textbook definition - These people usually make good performers, and can often be quite intense and serious. Some are emotional drama queens. They often like to give advice to others even when their own life is secretly a mess. By becoming aware of their emotions, they gain control over them rather than have their emotions control their life. Once they do this they show great depth of understanding and are emotionally balanced. "But I think that having no arrows means that you're--oh."
