Chase looked up from her notes and looked around for a partner. She was really bad at math so...don't expect much?She went up to this older girl and "me"She said softly.

Darn. He hoped that if they had to partner up during this class that he could be with Iris. He felt a little let down when she walked away but he guessed it wasn't her fault. Standing up, he looked around the room to see if anyone still remained partner-less.

You know, he'd rather work on his own. Or not work at all, really. He din't mind. He doesn't like Arithmancy anyway...

Damn. There was someone else without a partner. A girl sitting on her own. Sighing, he walked over. "Hi. I don't know you. And since I don't know you, I suppose we could be partners, seeing as you don't have one yet, and neither do I."

He kinda hoped she told him to go away. He wanted to leave. He really hated Arithmancy. He was no good at it.

Jose smiled, the boy seemed nice. When she was at home, her mother had taught her how to do some of the classes. Of all of them, Arithmancy was her favorite, and her mom had said she was a natural at it. She had read the whole Arithmancy book already.

Josey shook his hand. "I'm Josey Flow. Shall we start?" She didn't know how to start, so she decided to let him go first.

Alright. This could be fine. They'd quickly do the assignment, and never be partners again. No magic was casted in this class, so it could go all fine. She'd probably be wrong with her prediction, but that was fine too, as long as Evan was correct. But if she was going to be hesitant, it wouldn't go fast. And he didn't want to be the one to request more time on the assignment. Because he was one of the sleeping ones.

He nodded again. Wait. He had to know her birthday. "And what is your birthday?" Was she not following the class? Was he going to explain what they were going to do? Oh, joy.

So Ainra wasn't sure where her partner had gone. She looked around. Anybody else not have a partner... nope. Awesome...

Chris had been enjoying himself during the beginning of the lesson, apart from the points loss. But at least Gryffindor only lost 3 points, he was proud of his Lions, except for the obvious need to be quiet; but they were still acting better than the other houses where. But then he grinned estatically at Gold when she earned back 2 of their lost points. He winked at her and then turned back to Professor Hadley.

OOOh Partners?! He turned around to see who all he wanted to work with and then heard the addition to what the Arithmancy teacher had said...Someone you didn't know. The Head Boy began to look around for someone he didn't know. He then came across a very confused looking girl that he recognized fron somewhere but he just couldn't place his finger on it. He decided to go ahead and ask her and then introduce himself. "Hello there, I'm Chris Potter, do you want to be partners?"

Oh yeah, they had to know eachothers birthdays. Josey blushed, she completely forgot, now she felt stupid. And he probably thought she was stupid too. "February 17th 2060. What is your birthday?" She might as well start too, because she felt more confident. And she didn't want to fall behind, her partner would relly hate her.

"Yeah. What's your full name and birthday?"

Rae was so clueless in Arithmancy that she had no idea what was going on... She heard a girl ask aloud if anyone needed a partner... Hopefully she was good at this... "Hey, yeah i need a partner... Name's Rae." She looked older and therefore hopefully she could tell her exactly what was happening.

Ooh someone wanted to be partners. Abby turned to the girl who she supposed had spoken. Her voice had been so soft, it was really impossible to tell for sure. But she was standing there after all. And she looked younger than her. Abby smiled.

"Sure," she said, beckoning for the girl to sit. "Okay, so my birth name is Abigail Patricia Hartzler. And my birthday is the third of March, 2055. How 'bout you?" She whipped out some more parchment, ready to take note of the girl's name and birthday.

Abby heard another voice. She turned to face the speaker to find another younger girl. "Oh, hello. Nice to meet you," she said with a smile. Hmm... well. If she was partnerless, she supposed she could take on another partner. "Uhm, sure. My birth name is Abigail Patricia Hartzler and my birthdate is March 3rd, 2055. And yours?"

Oh. Well. There. Now he didn't need to partner up with this girl. He could just walk away. Good, cause Jimbo hated Arithmancy.

"Hullo, Chris." Mr. Head Boy.
That right there, is the highlight of this class. Seeing Chris again. And that is when you truly know that Jimbo hates a subject because the highlight would normally be some of the material covered. But not with this class. Nuh uh.

Santi wasn't too disappointed that the first year girls had found others to work with. He could do this alone, it wasn't that hard really, there was no math to it, so why did others find it so difficult?

Deciding that he'd already contributed to the loss of points he should listen to the professor. Now, was there anyone who needed a partner and he felt like approaching?

Ainra saw another boy without a partner. She quickly approached him thinking he might be the only one left. She smiled, he looked to be about her age. "Wanna be my partner?" She asked him.

Jen looked around, not sure whether she should approach someone or not. She just decided to look around more and see if anyone else didn't have a partner. If she couldn't find any, she would just do her own calculations.

That blush'd better mean she'd forgotten to mention her birthday. Evan nodded again. At least she had been following the class. There could be nothing worse than being partners with a firstie Puff, who didn't follow the class. Or so he used to think, until he saw the firsties of Slytherin this year. They were even worse. Maybe he should be grateful he was partners with this one.

"15 April 2057." He waited for her to go on. Let's hear what she got to say about him.

Great another young one, he thought as the girl approached. He could hardly say no for he'd decided at the start of class that he was going to do his best to be polite. So far it had only cost their house points.

"For sure. I'm Santi Xu," he introduced with a smile, offering the vacant seat beside him.

Vashti listened quietly as the professor spoke, taking notes when necessary and paying special attention when she demonstrated how to do this class assignment thing. Okay. Cool. Didn't look...too hard. She was sort of good in math. Definitely not her best subject though. Not that that would matter if she didn't have a partner to do the assignment with.

"Hey, anyone need a partner?" she asked, directing it at no one in particular, just anyone who would answer.

"Ainra." Ainra said with a smile. "So do you know how to do this?" She asked, a little confused.






ooc: I misread your age as first year instead of fifth year : )

"Oh, er.. Sorry, i didn't realize you already had a partner.... I can... Leave.... If you prefer." She really didn't see the first year with her until now... Rae was feeling quite embarrassed. Then she said something about her birth name.... What?! "Wait... We need to give our FULL name?" Even if she did, (which she wont) give out her full name, she still had no idea how to do this stupid subject.

Jen looked up to see who had spoken and was delighted to see Vashti. "Hey, Vashti!" Jen said quietly. "I need a partner. what's your full name and birthday?"

[QUOTE=saltandvinegarchips;9352440][COLOR="Purple"]"Ainra." Ainra said with a smile. "So do you know how to do this?" She asked, a little confused.

"I know how to get the numbers. Though I didn't bring a textbook to figure out what it means. So when's your birthday Ainra?" Santi asked finally taking out a quill and parchment to write it down.

"Oh, Kennice Marin Starkenn, and February 25, 2060. And you?" She smiled, ready to write it down.

Oh YAY a partner! Except that it was Jen, who she knew, and the professor had said to partner with someone they didn't know... But she'd also said someone they didn't know very well too, hadn't she? And Vashti had only just met Jen, so she didn't know her very well. Yay justification!

"Hi, Jen!" she replied brightly, getting her notebook and quill ready. "My full name's Vashti Rachelle Greenwell - would you like me to write it down? And my birthday is May 2nd, 2059. What's yours?"

"No need! You're fine," Abby said brightly to the girl. She looked a tad embarrassed, and there was no need for that. Mistakes WILL happen in life.

"Your full name, whole name, complete name. Whichever you prefer," she replied to her question with a shrug. "I'll need it to calculate your destiny, soul urge, and personality numbers." Didn't this girl listen to the explanations from before?

[QUOTE=Zecaar;9352450] "June 5th, 2060." Ainra replied. "What's this for, the life one?" She asked him curiously.
