Hanna had done the calibration of her pendant, and by asking if she was a Ravenclaw and a Gryffindor had seen that clockwise was what her pendant did when it was a yes, and counter-clockwise if it were no. She had asked whether she was tired, and the pendant swayed side to side before coming to a stop. Figuring that was what it did if it were unsure, she wrote it all down.

The lesson had come quite quickly, and Hanna packed up her belongings, putting the pendant carefully into a spare piece of parchment and into a safe pocket in her bag. "See you next time Professor Sutton," Hanna said on the way out.
