With a last glance down at her watch Laurel deemed that enough students had arrived for her to be able to start. Stepping up a few more meters on the lake bank on wet bare feet she said a smile pursing her lips as she addressed the assembled students. "Welcome students to another year in the study of the noble art of divination. I am Professor Laurel Vance for those among you who don't know me, and I will be your guide as we together attempt to unearth what the future has in store for us this year at Hogwarts." Here she paused briefly to let that sink in. "I award everyone with 2 house points each for following my sand instruction of not touching the stone piles." Laurel said with a big broad beam. Even Derfael would get his first points even though he hadn't excatly done what she had asked, but Laurel was feeling generous and would see it as if it never happened. "I assume that many of you are keen to know why you are all out here sitting on straw mats near the lake edge and with just plain black stones for company? Well I shall get into that very soon, but first can each and everyone of you give me one fact about water divination?" Going silent she waited for the students to think up some answers, wondering silently if any of the lake inhabitants would pay them a visit. OOC: Class has started! I will continue in approximatley 24 hours from this post at around 3 pm GMT+1 on Sunday Jan 8th. Please no posting your character arriving after this post, unless you are willing to accept IC consequences that Laurel will think up. If you are joining late just jump right in as if your student has been there all along.
Don't wait to be called on just raise your hand and assume Prof Vance said your students name and give an answer e.g give a fact about water divination. Let your character speak for themselves, be creative, all answers count, even wrong ones.
"Its pretty safe Professah!" the Curly Top replied reassuredly. The cruiser itself was safe for as long as the rider knew what they were doing, and he knew what he was doing.... most of the time.
And he gets points for just sitting on his bum? Awwyea! But aye what did he know about Water Divination? He didnt know either, but then he wasnt shy about venturing this guess "Uhh.... does it have anything to do with skipping stones across the lake?" Because thats what he always does when he's at home mhmm. |
