Truth be told I usually end up being the odd ball out os I'm truly glad to have you as my partner.".
"Yup, it's cool to meet you, too, Herminny. You have a neat first name," LouAnn said, although, she was surely one to speak with a last name like Purple. She'd have started up a longer conversation with the girl, but before she could open her mouth to say another word, the professor had moved on with the lesson.

The tussie mussie should have no more than 3 flowers total and be of a specific meaning which you will determine. When you are done, give the flowers to your partner and ask them to interpret it. Keep a score on a sheet of parchment and give your partner 1 point if he or she correctly interpreted at least two of the flowers in the tussie mussie." What a
ridiculous term. He felt
ridiculous saying it. And for Kapoor, that was saying something. "
And 2 more points if they could correctly gather the gist of your overall statement. Once that's done, pass the papers up to me and we'll use your scores to determine how the next part of the lesson shall go."
LouAnn flipped to page 217 in her textbook and began browsing through the list of flowers and their meanings. A tussie mussie, though? What in Merlin's name? She glanced at her partner to try and get an idea of what they were meant to be doing, but from what she could tell, Herminny hadn't started yet either. Eep...a tussie mussie. A tussie mussie...
"Psst, Herminny...what in Merlin's name are we supposed to be doing?" she whispered, glancing back and forth between her partner and the professor. LouAnn was the world's worst at Divination. This flower stuff was surely not the factual information she'd hoped for. A look at Cela out of the corner of her eye told her that she was supposed to choosing three flowers.
"Alright....tussie mussie, here I come!" LouAnn thought to herself. Hmm....eeny, meeny, miny, moe...
- Blue Rose
Oxeye daisy
White Poppy
...alright, those were three she thought would suit the situation well. She passed her list over to Herminny.
