"But within the Divination field, are there any practices that are considered less official or...effective...or sillier than others?" She hoped Kitridge knew what she was asking. She, again, was curious to learn what her mother thought about it all.
Now...she needed a partner...but she didn't know who? Avalon? Anyone? "I would definitely say there are studies out there showing that some are or aren't effective, but it also depends on the source you are asking. In my opinion all the forms should be respected in their own sense. Many can be linked with others to find deeper readings, while some stand alone as very successful. The best way to answer that questions is to say to be open minded and do your own research and see what your gut tells you on which ones you feel more drawn to and which you think are not to be bothered with." Giving the bright young girl a smile, she enjoyed when students questioned, that was a great way to know they were learning and thinking. Quote:

In class?! The nerve!!
"Professor," she piped up as everyone seemed to be breaking into pairs for something, "can I go use the restroom? I--- there's something in my eye." She blinked several dozen times for effect so Kitridge could see. "Yes, go ahead, but quickly please." She didn't want any accidents in the class. Quote:

But she couldn't run away now. First, she was wearing clothes that did not belong to her. And second, running away now would be too obvious. For a brief moment, Crimalla pondered using her co0ld as an excuse to leave. It would have been a good excuse - totally understandable! Professor Kitridge was such a kind teacher that surely she wouldn't be mad.
But some scruples inside her made her decide not to go that way. If Kitridge was a mean professor, then she wouldn't have felt guilty lying. But she wasn't, and in fact she'd just given everyone five points. It would be wrong to deceive her - even if not doing so would lead to embarrassment.
So instead Crimalla turned to shyly regard the two others sitting at her table.Cecelia and Kinsay. "Who should be partner, professor?" she asked in a low, trembling voice. [b] "You can pair with anyone in the room. I don't mind if there are three to a group either.
Glancing at her watch she realized they needed to keep moving. "Alright everyone, was it harder to figure out just looking at another person? What do you think could help with reading other people this way?" She moved around the room looking at each student. "As you answer that I would like you all to head to the back and change into your uniforms again. When you are done I want you to just think about those questions I had asked at the beginning after you had dressed in the outfits you are in now." She gave a few snaps of approval before calling the first person that put their hand up. OOC: Thank you for sticking with me everyone! We will move on to the final part of the lesson in about 24 hours.
