Eiji was having a hard time not picturing his new professor in a form fitting purple dress and dark-purple lips at the moment. And no, he was not the sort to usually have boyish fantasies about people...but the last name Beryl brought up other vivid imagery and it caused him to snort under his breath at the Healer Beryl. He really needed to get the notion of Queen Beryl out of his mind if he was going to be of any level of efficiency this lesson.

Efficiency that included listening to what the woman was lecturing. Unfortunately...the Slytherin only really started tuning in when the handout was mentioned and then his attention was drawn to what was written there and trying to find what his four letters had been on it. Thankfully...his was at the top, so that saved a bit of time as he transcribed from handout to his own notes.

Eiji Rasting
Slytherin ; 4th year

I = Introvert; S = Sensing; T = Thinking; J = Judging
Reserved, Realistic, Logical, Orderly, Controlled, Practical, Objective, Responsible, Self-motivated, Detail-Oriented, Pragmatic, Methodical, Deliberate, Traditional, Levelheaded, Hardworking.

Only...what had been this A business and why was it not listed on this handout?

There was more instruction being given, and Eiji was not entirely sure what he felt about this. Personalities were not fixed as far as he was concerned. They could evolve and shift given life experiences. Though it was interesting to note that the other in the class that shared his same four letters were also Slytherins. That was a sort of case study he may be more inclined to look into, which houses were more prone to which of these random letters. Connecting them haphazardly to runes? Eh. He preferred Headmistress Hawthorne's approach to direct practicality of the uses of runes to this.

But.....he would...try.

Was there a rune of indifference and sarcasm? That was the one for him.

When the professor started speaking, the girl wrote everything down carefully. The handouts and everything about it making her more interested in the lesson than she initially had been. And that was saying something.

So without further delay, she too started scribbling down what had been asked, though her usual overthinking did make her frown at the choice of words about her in this handout the professor had given to them.

Was she REALLY like this?

"Do you think - this is all true?" she asked Eiji quietly as she wrote things down. "Is this how I am? Is it all set in stone? Or do you think one's personality can change?"

Quote:

Missa Renaldi
Fourth Year, Ravenclaw

ENFJ (-T): Protagonist

Positive??: Warm, Tolerant (although only to a point, not a push over okay?), Reliable (we do the best we can, can't make promises though), Passionate, Social, Team player (how is anything going to get done if one was not, honestly?)

Once the traits - somewhat - written down, she pulled open their textbook, and then again glanced at Eiji, "how do you think I can narrow my traits down with these runes?"

Thankfully, Missa's presence was calming. Enough so that his annoyance with this was dulled. Though she was clearly more into this than himself seeing as she practically had a full parchment of notes where as he had...only the bits that directly related to himself. He saw no need to make any notes about this personality type business other than what related to himself anyway.

"Hmm?" he murmured while tickling his nose with his quill as he glanced over to her. Of course, she was using that Ravenclaw brain of hers and rattling off a billion questions. Well, four for the time being but questioning with Missa was like chopping off the head of a hydra. Once one was gone, two more grew back in its place. But he would indulge, as he always did. "No," he shrugged easily, lifting one finger to indicate that he was responding to her first question and then lifted a second finger to move on to the second. Though first he peered over to look at her notes and smiled a bit. "Yes." And now for the third finger. "No." A fourth. "Yes. Though personality traits are stable over long periods and why the Sorting Hat is not premature decision making, per say. Stable for somewhere around 40 years, I've read."

And now to prepare for the follow up of eight questions.

But first... back to his notes real quick to narrow his traits down.

"I think you should list Sowilo in association with 'warm'," he noted casually while glancing over his select four and considering his own options. "Or Ingwaz."
