"This means I'm nurturing and supportive want to help people... I take on the characteristics of people to relate to them better at times, and the 24 petals shows a complexity. The red shows I've been through traumatic life events or have experienced abuses and had my life in peril in early life. As a foundling who was adopted and then lost my parents to death, and who has been in several abusive situations, I competely understand why this would appear. The black on every third petal and dark stamens with waxy leaves indicate that I have performed minor hexes and curses throughout my life, also true. "

"Thorns on my plant indicate that four people have or will come into my life that will wish to bring me great harm, mental or physical. I know who two of them are. The other two... well... I'm not sure yet." She shrugged.
He smiled sadly. Blue and crystal were his colors as well. She really was quite a bit more similar to him than Slade. Ah well, the only thing he could do now was attempt to protect her. "Well done, Xana. 4 points."

He chuckled. "Red and orange are also very physical colors. That is, you need to feel the world around you. If it's not right there before you, tangible, then it doesn't really exist. Good marks of a quidditch player. 2 points."

He chuckled lightly. "Not necessarily a bad thing, either. 4 points."

She smiled, knowing that summed up her personality near perfectly.
"Very good, Hermy. The marks of a teacher, might I add." He winked to her. "4 points."

"Burned--" He shook his head, allowing her to continue. "Black is usually an indicator that you have cast hexes or curses before. I think a good number of us have. After all, even I was a child once. Orange is being a risk-taker, or a thrill seeker. 1 point for at least answering."

He didn't wish to go directly into the red-overlayed hidden in the center of the blooms, but that was the general look of the flower. "It's an indication that I'm logical, but...emotional at the same time?" He was confused by the last part of it, so he ventured the guess.


ooc: I don't know what breed of orchid this is, but I imagine his plant to look something like it.
"A person can be logical and emotional, yes, though it's a careful balance most times. You may follow your heart, but also follow the facts. For instance, if two people are fighting, your heart will go out to both of them. But you will listen to the facts and try to determine from there. 2 points."

Strong-willed, powerful personality, determined to have my way, which is the right way."

"Light tan because..." she thought carefully of what to say, "... I am a logical person..."

She looked at the Red overleigh... People had a Red Overlay if they have been physically, emotionally or mentally abandoned or rejected... "No Idea about the red, probably because of my temper." She ended there.
He let Cassandra bypass the red tinge to her plant. It was not something to be bringing up to the entire class, after all. "Very good, Cassandra. Well done. 3 points."

"Now, this isn't for points, but I need to see where we're all at. What have you each learned from raising this plant, and journaling for it?"


ooc: sorry everyone. I had to be a parent. I'm back now.
