Vivian glanced to the side when she felt someone drawing closer. The blond offered a smile at the bestie, and gave her a tiny wave. Sky was very much welcome to pester her anytime but... oh.

Sneaky. The headmistress was definitely sneaky. One moment, the woman was no where to be found, and now she was in front of them as if all Apparation boundaries were lifted at Hogwarts for a few seconds just so Hawthorne could perform her stunt. And transfiguring the Headmistress into one of the suits of armour? Obviously, Vivian knew that was a joke. A weird one, to be frank. However, the prefect managed a tiny smile so that it wouldn't be awkward.

But on with the lesson, yeah? Vivian had already figured the rune in front was Algiz, and she was glad she actually got it right. The mention of practical rune magic excited the prefect a bit. Thank Merlin, she didn't want to sit down and listen to hours of lecture anymore. She was sooo done with those. With the energy she still had from the wee bit go excitement for felt, Vivian raised her hand. "Algiz is one of the three runes used in a rune victory charm, along with Sowilo and Tiwaz," the prefect offered as her answer. Since the others were able to share that the rune was for protection and all that.

Could they get to the real practical portion now, please?
