"We learned that when we plot our birthdays numbers into your darling little boxes, we can connect the numbers and make these arrows. And these arrows, though sometimes tell blatant and bold face lies, can sometimes give insights about our personalities depending on the direction that they point. But," Neptune paused to lower her hand and tap at her lip thoughtfully, "some, like meeee, are just outside the box and can't be pinpointed by arrows and such."

Clearly, those were the superior type. Clearly. Neptune scrunched her nose at Mr. Crispe affectionately, like they had some sort of inside joke going. GIGGLE.

It was easier just to ignore that one. She was deluded but he couldn't very well say 'hey little girl, you are deluded' could he? Well. He could and he kind of wanted to but luckily his attention was caught by one of the wonderful Gryffindor students so he just sort of waved dismissively in Neptune Bott's direction.

Yeah. That was a good summary.

"Nice and simple. Well said boy." Crispy told him jovially.

Oh Merlin! He's starting class already, this meant another class her friends were not in. This just was not good.

After quickly looking through her notes she raised her hand and said, "We learned that the nmbers in our birthdate can help in identifying strong positive traits and character flaws. We used the Arrows of Pythagoras to help us figure out what these traits and flaws mean for us. These arrows give us a quick insight into our personality and are indicative of specific traits." She looked through her notes again making sure she hadn't forgotten anything.

... oh alright. That was a good answer. It was a shame that he'd have to give points for it.

"Yes thats right."

Was that all she had to say? She pretty much summed up the entire subject of Arithmancy in one sentence.

So that meant that she was obviously brilliant like him. It was a Gryffindor thing. He heard what she didn't say too. You know, like the rest of the answer. He nodded cheerfully at the young girl.

Glad that the professor was happy to see her - of course he was happy to see her! - Gold raised a hand. "We covered the Arrows of Pythagoras, sir," she said, politely. "Eight positive ones, and seven negative. We use a 3 x 3 grid to plot the digits in our birth-date - all except zero - and, with the help of those, get an insight into our personalities."

"Positive arrows are basically three adjacent digits in a row, column or diagonal of the grid. Negative arrows, on the other hand, are a line of three - vertical, horizontal or diagonal - empty spaces. The former usually tell of our good personality traits, such as willpower, intellect and determination, and the latter usually drawbacks, such as inactivity or frustration. Of course, some people have birth-dates that produce no arrows at all, which means they have no specific negative or positive traits, and tend to be adaptable and balanced and stuff."

Phew! That was quite a lot of stuff to recall. Gold was glad she remembered it all, though. Yay!

"High five!" Crispy wandered over to Miss Laksh and extended his hand. "Very detailed answer."

"We learned that our birthdays could tell us stuff, but ever since the year 1000, the first column of the number boxes we used could never be completely blank, and so we lost the knowledge of what it meant. That is why there are eight positive arrows, and only seven negative ones."

"Yes yes. All of tha... what on earth are you doing with your robes child? Stop it at once!" Crispy flapped a hand in the Slytherin girl's direction. Maybe he could take points to balance out the good answers that he was getting from the Slytherin kids.

Does that sound right?"

"You have a good memory." Crispy answered. "So some of you had no arrows, others had several. Some of you had more than one of a particular number and that is what we are looking at today. There are different meanings where there are multiples of a number appearing in your birthdate and therefore in your square. I want some volunteers to come up to the board and draw their square."
