The classroom was… just a classroom. Nothing interesting about the layout, there are desks, chairs, and a board with self-squeaking chalk…
… oh yes, and your substitute Arithmancy Professor Amadeus Crispe, standing like a drill sergeant at the front of the classroom, hands clasped behind his back, eyes examining everyone and everything.
"As I said, if you have no arrows, this too has a meaning. People with no arrows tend to be quite adaptable. There are no specific negative traits they need to work on and no particular strengths which may cause an imbalance in their personality and life. If you have no arrows, I'd like you to work on a different birthdate, perhaps that of a friend, a sibling or a parent, just to give you practice identifying arrows." Crispy answered after glancing quickly at the boy's grid.
This was getting tiresome. It was. Crispy much prefered teaching University students and advising Wizarding celebrities.
Bwahaha Dylan knew it. He was absolutely perfect in every way. He had no negatives, and no positives to unbalance things. It was like he was made from the perfect mould. AND adaptable. He was an actor in the making. He ran a hand through his amazingly perfect hair. Boy was it good to be him. He propped himself back on his chair. He didn't have to do anymore work now. He was too perfect for that.

These people usually make good performers, and can often be quite intense and serious. Some are emotional drama queens. They often like to give advice to others even when their own life is secretly a mess. By becoming aware of their emotions, they gain control over them rather than have their emotions control their life. Once they do this they show great depth of understanding and are emotionally balanced.

These people have good planning and organisational skills. They are able to make plans, recognise their goals and work out the best way to achieve them. However, they need to leave room for spontaneity and fun as they tend to over-plan. They will often have copious notes with everything written down, and a well planned diary. They often skip the details in order to see the bigger picture.

How would Harry's arrows be different if he was born (starting with his original birthdate);
- 16 days earlier?
- 15 years ealier?
- 100 years earlier?
- In December?
Amadeus paused in his wandering at the question from the Slytherin. Why was it that the Slytherins were asking all the most important questions?
"You have indeed identified that generations often have arrows in common and certain arrows are not possible if you are born in a certain year. As for the empty first column you will notice there is no negative arrow listed in the 1,2,3 position. This is because anyone born between years 999 and 4000 will have at least one of these numbers in their birthdate. While we are quite sure that an arrow exists in this position, especially considering the system was developed before the year 999, the meaning of it has been lost."
"Oh." She gave a little frown, looking at the grid. "That's rather sad... So much information becomes lost over the course of time as we forget our pasts..."
It didn't strike her that she may have said anything unusual for a girl her age, and moved on with the assignment. Well, at least this should be incredibly interesting. Perhaps she would do some research and comparisons herself to try and find out what the first arrow may mean. As she did so, she murmured to herself, "I wonder what it must be like for someone with only one number in their birthdate. Like February 2, 2022... That would be no positives and a lot of negatives."

They had to...figure all of that out? Well, it didn't seem too hard. She didn't have a problem with her own work at the moment, so this one wouldn't be any different right? Sighing, and trying her hardest not to snicker at the Ravenclaw girl who was seriously juuuuust asking for it... she started on the next few questions.

Arrow of Frustration: Family life can present problems to people with this arrow as they expect too much from others and hesitate to acknowledge their own needs. They can suffer more than their fair share of disappointments and frustrations because of that expectation until they learn to accept other people and themselves just as they are, and appreciate the differences.
How would Harry's arrows be different if he was born:
- 16 days earlier: He would have another 'positive' arrow (Arrow of Skepticism), and he would have no 'negative' arrows.
- 15 years earlier: His positive arrow would change from Arrow of Activity, to the Arrow of Intellect, Arrow of Determination, and Arrow of Compassion, and he would have no 'negative' arrows.
That...was a lot of thinking. And writing. Now she could just sit back and wait for everyone else to finish right? Well, either way, that's what she was going to do. She was too tired to talk to anyone.

_3 (1) _._6(0)_._9 (1)_ - Mental
_2 (0)_._5 (0)_._8 (1)_ - Emotional
_1 (2)_._4 (0)_._7 (1)_ - Physical
So Harry had 1 negative arrow:
_6 (0)_._5 (0)_._4 (0)_ Arrow of Frustration: Family life can present problems to people with this arrow as they expect too much from others and hesitate to acknowledge their own needs. They can suffer more than their fair share of disappointments and frustrations because of that expectation until they learn to accept other people and themselves just as they are, and appreciate the differences.
He also had 1 positive arrow:
_9 (1)_._8 (1)_._7 (1)_ Arrow of Activity: Fidgety, full of energy, always on the go; these people are quite hyperactive. Their physical and nervous energy is high and needs to be released through physical exercise. They need to keep physically or mentally busy at all times. They feel better spending time outdoors and eating natural foods. They take action where others tend to dream.
16 days earlier: 7/15/1980
_3 (0) _._6(0)_._9 (1)_ - Mental
_2 (0)_._5 (1)_._8 (1)_ - Emotional
_1 (2)_._4 (0)_._7 (1)_ - Physical
He would now have 1 more positive arrow and no negative arrows. Arrow of Determination: Enterprising, Ambitious and determined to do things well, these people bounce back easily from setbacks and can overcome any obstacles thrown in their way. They are the strivers in business, heading for the top. They need to watch for stubbornness and may cling to ideas and projects when the time is well past to let it go.
15 Years earlier: 7/31/1965
_3 (1) _._6(1)_._9 (1)_ - Mental
_2 (0)_._5 (1)_._8 (0)_ - Emotional
_1 (1)_._4 (0)_._7 (1)_ - Physical
He would have no negative arrows and his positive arrows would now be:
_3 (1)_._6 (1)_._9 (1)_ Arrow if Intellect: These people have a good memory and are highly intelligent. Occassionally, due to laziness or lack of interest, they do not make full use of their mental abilities. Usually they are more intellectual than emotional or practical and their quick analytical brains are capable of abstract thinking, so they solve problems quickly and easily. They can be impatient with others who are less bright. It is important for these people to keep their brain stimulated and to challenge themselves mentally throughout their lives.
_3 (1)_._5 (1)_._7 (1)_ Arrow of Compassion: People with this arrow have an inner calm and acceptance of highs and lows of their life. They bring peace, unconditional love and gentleness, wanting to promote peace and love to everyone. They are often philosophers or musicians. They could also be interested in mysticism, spirituality, the occult or the psychic arts. As they mature, they develop an inner serenity and a strong faith that sustains and comforts them.
_1 (1)_._5 (1)_._9 (1)_ Arrow of Determination: Enterprising, Ambitious and determined to do things well, these people bounce back easily from setbacks and can overcome any obstacles thrown in their way.

_3 (1) _._6 (0)_._9 (0)_ - Mental
_2 (0)_._5 (0)_._8 (2)_ - Emotional
_1 (2)_._4 (0)_._7 (1)_ - Physical
Now he has no positive arrows and his negative one is still the same.
_6 (0)_._5 (0)_._4 (0)_ Arrow of Frustration
Born in December: 12/31/1980
_3 (1) _._6 (0)_._9 (1)_ - Mental
_2 (1)_._5 (0)_._8 (1)_ - Emotional
_1 (3)_._4 (0)_._7 (0)_ - Physical
Now his negative arrow will stay the same but his positve arrow is different.
_6 (0)_._5 (0)_._4 (0)_ Arrow of Frustration
_3 (1)_._2 (1)_._1 (3)_ Arrow of Planning: These people have good planning and organisational skills. They are able to make plans, recognise their goals and work out the best way to achieve them. However, they need to leave room for spontaneity and fun as they tend to over-plan. They will often have copious notes with everything written down, and a well planned diary.

Mina quickly jotted down the information and looked down at her grid paper. Her numbers weren't that hard, so she reasoned doing Harry Potter's wouldn't be that hard either. Grabbing her quill again, she leaned over her paper and went to work.

This is a powerful, dynamic arrow. These people have much willpower. They are determined and unbelievably persistent. However, they can be a little stubborn. They can sometimes be unaware of the feelings of others and may accidentally hurt others in their relentless drive to reach their goals. They tend not to listen to other people’s viewpoints and often ignore their own inner voice also. They are ambitious and likely to achieve their goals and dreams.
Arrow of Emotions 3(0) . 6(1) . 9(0)
2(1). 5(1).8(1)>
1(0) . 4(1) . 7(0)
These people usually make good performers, and can often be quite intense and serious. Some are emotional drama queens. They often like to give advice to others even when their own life is secretly a mess. By becoming aware of their emotions, they gain control over them rather than have their emotions control their life. Once they do this they show great depth of understanding and are emotionally balanced.

Looking up from her paper, she smiled. It all looked correct, but she didn't want to get too ahead of herself. Looking back down, she rechecked it.
"Yes." Professor Crispe checked quickly and moved on. "I have one more activity I'd like for you to work on before I give homework."
He returned to the board and wrote up a birthdate.
Righto. She had twenty minutes to do this, and that ought to be enough. Gold picked up her quill once more, and dipped it in ink. Now, for the calculations.
I:
Fidgety, full of energy, always on the go; these people are quite hyperactive. Their physical and nervous energy is high and needs to be released through physical exercise. They need to keep physically or mentally busy at all times. They feel better spending time outdoors and eating natural foods. They take action where others tend to dream.
{ NEGATIVE }
[] Arrow of Frustration.
I:
Family life can present problems to people with this arrow as they expect too much from others and hesitate to acknowledge their own needs. They can suffer more than their fair share of disappointments and frustrations because of that expectation until they learn to accept other people and themselves just as they are, and appreciate the differences.
{ POSITIVE }
[] Arrow of Activity.
[] Arrow of Determination.
I: -- Same as original.
II:
Enterprising, Ambitious and determined to do things well, these people bounce back easily from setbacks and can overcome any obstacles thrown in their way. They are the strivers in business, heading for the top. They need to watch for stubbornness and may cling to ideas and projects when the time is well past to let it go.
{ POSITIVE }
[] Arrow of Determination.
[] Arrow of Intellect.
I:
Explanation given before, as well.
II:
These people have a good memory and are highly intelligent. Occassionally, due to laziness or lack of interest, they do not make full use of their mental abilities. Usually they are more intellectual than emotional or practical and their quick analytical brains are capable of abstract thinking, so they solve problems quickly and easily. They can be impatient with others who are less bright. It is important for these people to keep their brain stimulated and to challenge themselves mentally throughout their lives.
I:
These people have good planning and organisational skills. They are able to make plans, recognise their goals and work out the best way to achieve them. However, they need to leave room for spontaneity and fun as they tend to over-plan. They will often have copious notes with everything written down, and a well planned diary. They often skip the details in order to see the bigger picture.

So, the second column is... dependance? The Arrow of Willpower they depend a lot on themselves, the Arrow of Frustration they depend a lot on others.
She glanced around and decided maybe she should flesh out her homework a little more. So...
SPOILER!!: details
If Harry were born sixteen days sooner, then his arrows say he would not have expected and relied on a person so much for things that they could not do. He would have also shown stronger determination... Though I am unsure how much more determination he could have.
Fifteen years earlier and his positives are Determination, Intellect, and Compassion. His reactions would have been very different. He may have thought through more, acted decisively, and had more empathy.
A hundred years earlier and he would have no positive arrows, but still the negative Arrow of Frustration. He may have been far more dependant on others.
A subtle change such as being born in December keeps him with the Arrow of Frustration, but rather than the Arrow of Activity, he would have the Arrow of Planning. He may have taken far more time to act, which could have led to more unfortunate circumstances than his tendancy to act before thinking things completely through.

Quote:
Arrow of Activity Positive 7,8,9
Fidgety, full of energy, always on the go; these people are quite hyperactive. Their physical and nervous energy is high and needs to be released through physical exercise. They need to keep physically or mentally busy at all times. They feel better spending time outdoors and eating natural foods. They take action where others tend to dream.
Quote:
Arrow of Frustration Negative 4,5,6
These people lack motivation and get up and go. They need to be encouraged to get out and experience everything life has to offer, using physical games and exercises to keep themselves moving. They prefer contemplating and perfecting their ideas before acting. They hesitate and procrastinate. However, if they learn self-discipline and set realistic and achievable goals for themselves, they will become high achievers. They need to take action rather than just think about it.

[B]Arrow of Sensitivity[B] 2,5,8
These souls are very sensitive and easily hurt. They tend to be over-sensitive to the opinion of others. Usually they are shy as children and often retreat from situations that may put them into a position where they might be vulnerable. When young there can be a lack of self-confidence, even an inferiority complex. They try to hide their feelings but usually overcome this as they mature.

Crispy leaned forward over the young Ravenclaw's desk and he spoke in a low voice, almost hissing at her.
"The arrows do not care what you think little girl." And apparently neither did Crispy. The class was coming to an end soon anyhow but he did grudgingly add, "The arrows do not stand on their own, there are other arithmancy calculations which are clarified by them, or which help clarify them. Many in fact. The arrows apply over your entire life and oh ho ho! I'm quite sure your other numbers have plenty to say about you." He pushed off her desk and walked away.
Neptune could have done without the hissing, but .... GIGGLE .... Mr. Crispe obviously felt the same way Neptune did about the lack of positive arrows on her chart. She was wholly and completely satisfied by his response. He thought she had MANY GOOD qualities that the chart didn't read, TOO. Neptune Bott was a glutton for being right. He felt she was a COMPLEX little girl that needed OTHER calculations... and .... well.
Swoon. Neptune didn't find Mr. Cripse to be quite so heinous anymore.
With no intention of doing more calculations at the moment, Neptune absently wrote down the birthday and gazed at Mr. Crispe. GIGGLE.

Elora then sat and waited to hear what the homework was.

His arm slightly covering his birthday (because he reeeally didn't want anyone to see when it was. Although he was seventeen now woop! it was still a kinda daft, stupid birthday that he would rather no one knew about.) Adam proceeded to check his work. If he was going to prove the numbers wrong, he better be right.
Otherwise he'd make a fool of himself.
Looking down the sheet of parchment the Sub. Guy (as he was dubing Professor Crispe) had handed out, Adam found the negative-line-thing that matched his chart.
Quote:
Arrow of Inactivity
These people lack motivation and get up and go. They need to be encouraged to get out and experience everything life has to offer, using physical games and exercises to keep themselves moving. They prefer contemplating and perfecting their ideas before acting. They hesitate and procrastinate. However, if they learn self-discipline and set realistic and achievable goals for themselves, they will become high achievers. They need to take action rather than just think about it.
Hmm... Arrow of Inactiv -- WHAT?!!?
Adam's head shot up after reading the title. He was not inactive. Not at all. This was proof that the numbers where wrong. They said he was lazy. He was not lazy. At all. He hadn't really read the Passage, just scanned it enough to know that he wasn't like that.
"Look sir," he began, fist waving in the air. "This chart says I'm 'Inactive'. That is wrong. I'm not lazy, at all. I play a lot of football for gods sake. I do a lot of running. I'm actually trying to do my homework this year, but the reason I never did do it wasn't because I was lazy or procrastinated, it was because I'm thick." Which really defeated the object of a Ravenclaw, but he was repeating the year. Which was proof he was thick.
He paused for a moment, looking back down at the parchment, and then back up to the Sub. Guy. "And it say's I '...need to take action, rather than just think about it.' That is practially the oposite to me. I don't actually think about things 'til after I've done then, so what the hell is it on about?!"
This was probably proof of that moment; if he'd've thought about it, Adam would probably not have put his hand up. But he'd achieved what he'd wanted; he'd proved Numbers and Arithmancy wrong. And he'd done it without lying!
SCORE! He hated numbers now. "Evil little liars..." he mumbled under his breath.

"Oh." She gave a little frown, looking at the grid. "That's rather sad... So much information becomes lost over the course of time as we forget our pasts..."
It didn't strike her that she may have said anything unusual for a girl her age, and moved on with the assignment. Well, at least this should be incredibly interesting. Perhaps she would do some research and comparisons herself to try and find out what the first arrow may mean. As she did so, she murmured to herself, "I wonder what it must be like for someone with only one number in their birthdate. Like February 2, 2022... That would be no positives and a lot of negatives."
"You bring up another good point, but one that will have to wait until our next lesson." Crispy tried not to grumble. When did Slytherins start getting so... good at stuff? He looked around at the Gryffindors just to satisfy himself that they were doing well and relaxed a little.

He had nothing to say to the strange little Ravenclaw with all her gazing and giggling and... was that swooning? Did she have a personality transplant in the past few minutes?
Right. Ignoring.

Arithmancy Homework 1 1. What is the maximum number of squares on the 3x3 grid that any one person could hypothetically have filled in? 1 point
2. Why is there no negative arrow for 1,2,3? 1 point
3. For each of the following, name any one birthdate that would give these arrows 4 points;
- An arrow of compassion and an arrow of emotions
- Arrows of determination, Intellect and practicality
- two positive arrows and a negative arrow. (also name the arrows used)
- four arrows (also name the arrows used)
4. Based on the other arrows, suggest what meaning the missing Negative arrow 1,2,3 might have. 4 points
Tiberius scribbled down Harry Potter's birthday and set to work drawing up all sorts of grids. Peeking up at the professor, Tibi timidly placed his name at the top and made his way to the front to turn it in.
Slipping in onto the pile, Tibi nodded silently and made his way out of the room.

Class over? Aww, but she liked numbers. They were fun! Gold copied down the homework, closed her folder of spare parchment, and capped her ink-pot. That done, the fifth year gathered up the rest of her belongings, and gave Professor Crispe a polite smile.
"That was a great lesson, sir," she said, as she walked up to the front of the classroom, turned in her classwork, gave Professor Crispe a quick, fuzzy hug - he was SUCH a dear, she wanted to hug him AGAIN - and then skipped out of the classroom.

Yes, class was finally over with. Marie wrote down the homework assignment then put everything in her bag. "Have a great day Professor," she said as she walked out of the room.
Bella looked up, the class was over, already? Time had gone fast for her, shaking her head a little on wonder she scribbled down the homework, in her diary. And stood up, shuving the diary back into the back, and slug her bag over her shoulder.
She walked towards the door, "Bye Professor" She said shyly, smiling weakly

Positive Arrow-Arrow of Determination
Enterprising, Ambitious and determined to do things well, these people bounce back easily from setbacks and can overcome any obstacles thrown in their way. They are the strivers in business, heading for the top. They need to watch for stubbornness and may cling to ideas and projects when the time is well past to let it go.
No negative arrows.

Positive Arrow-Arrow of Activity
Fidgety, full of energy, always on the go; these people are quite hyperactive. Their physical and nervous energy is high and needs to be released through physical exercise. They need to keep physically or mentally busy at all times. They feel better spending time outdoors and eating natural foods. They take action where others tend to dream.
Negative Arrow-Arrow of Frustration
Family life can present problems to people with this arrow as they expect too much from others and hesitate to acknowledge their own needs. They can suffer more than their fair share of disappointments and frustrations because of that expectation until they learn to accept other people and themselves just as they are, and appreciate the differences.

Different-He wouldn't have the Arrow of Activity, but he would have the Arrow of Planning.
Positive Arrow-Arrow of Planning
These people have good planning and organisational skills. They are able to make plans, recognise their goals and work out the best way to achieve them. However, they need to leave room for spontaneity and fun as they tend to over-plan. They will often have copious notes with everything written down, and a well planned diary. They often skip the details in order to see the bigger picture.

Then, realizing that the class had ended, she quickly wrote down the homework and left class.
Sidney backs up her things and walks to the head of the class. She hands in her class work to Professor Crispe. "Interesting class, Professor Crispe. I hope you enjoy your time here at Hogwarts."
