"I...I..." Hue saying hello only had the stunned Third Year now looking to the once quiet Ravenclaw with mouth slightly agape. "Is vanishing the same as dying?" He asked, repeating the Slytherin's question--quietly of course. He wasn't trying to disrupt the lesson and not at all when the professor was trying to explain things about flowers.

Kitt couldn't help but doubt. If magic wasn't working....didn't that mean the inner eye stopped, too? He didn't know but it left the boy more skeptical of the art than he'd been when the school year started.

Maybe he'd just start with what he wanted to know and see where it went from there...



Where were the flowers for him to rip apart. He needed answers.
Her heart was heavy hearing the students talk about vanishing. "Lets focus on the flowers for now Kitt. If you and Claudine want to speak more about the vanishing you can come find me after class." She was hoping as the lesson went on they could be distracted.

Like a muggle 8-ball or whatever....you couldn't ask it open-ended questions. She was squinting at the notes on the board and scribbling them down, and it seemed like she may have to do yes or no questions based on what the lines meant. Hmm.

So there, she had the answer to her first question. Moving on. A petal was plucked from the lily. A few minutes of studying told her there were thick lines bent to the left.
  • Do we stand a chance of returning to normal? Fickleness in either you or those around you.
  • Will this happen to us again? Trouble ahead.
  • Are all forms of Divination accurate?
  • Will my sketching skills improve?

The third year stared at her answers. Okay, so they didn’t make sense; at least, not to her and she quickly raised a hand. “Professor? Do these answers require interpretations because I’m not certain I really understand these meanings for my questions.”

Or was this form of Divination a hoax?
But she had a FEW questions she would very much like to ask.

Aboli's question was a good one and she took the time to make sure all the students heard the question. "You don't have to have yes and no questions for this. These answers aren't just black and white because life isn't that simple. Answers are going to need thought about and placed in the situation you have asked. If I would say am I going to have coffee today and got the answer trouble ahead I can assume that it is not likely that I will be having coffee." She hoped that helped both Aboli and Claudine as well as anyone that might need it.
