Emmy beamed, delighted with herself, and said, "I that case... I may be wrong, of course, but... By my deductions, that makes me... Hera?" she finished hesitantly, hoping against hope that she'd got it right.
Patroclus gave a soft round of applause for Emmy, "Congratulations! You go it right!" Patroclus couldn't help but be happy, the girls winning proved his game was succesful. "Would you like to go again?" the boy hoped she would, he was rather enjoying being quizmaster!

Emmy punched the air jubilantly, and said, "Yeah, I'd love to play again! So, am I a goddess still?"

The girl's enthusiasm warmed Patroclus' heart, he was finally doing go as a teacher, even though this was now more of a game then a class.
Moving to the board above Emmy's head Patroclus rubbed out the name Hera, and replaced it with another. "No" The boy grinned as he stepped back.
This is gonna be fun! Emmy thought, then enquired, "Hmm... Am I... a god of war?"
"No." Patroclus made sure the way he said no was very polite, he didn't want to come off as rude, and saying know this often could do so!
Patroclus wondered whether Lawson was ever coming back, or was he just to pass onto the next studentprofessor...
Hmmmmmmm
Thank Merlin for Gold, she had brought up a question Patroclus had not answered, "Gold you are, the God or Goddess, so your Question would be 'Am I regarded as a Universal Truth?' to which I would reply Yes."
Patroclus could see he had a worthy challenger in Gold
Gold blinked. "No, no, my question was, is my beauty regarded as a universal truth," she said, politely. "... and I have another question, if the answer to that one is still yes, sir. I'm a female, right?"
Interesting... "Ok, how about... god of music? Any closer?!"
Maybe she should try love or death next, if this doesn't work...
"No," Patroclus smiled at Emmy, she was truly good at this game.

Time to narrowww down the field!
"My Apoligise Gold, that is what I meant to say, Yes your beauty is a Universal Turth, and Yes you are female!" Patroclus answered in a polite tone, hoping he had not given too much away.

"Am I a daughter of Zeus?" Now that would surely narrow it down further.
"Yes, Mina you are!" Patroclus was rather enjoying the girls questions, they were all coming fom different angles, and Patroclus was having to keep on his toes.

Mina smiled and tapped her chin in thought. That did narrow it down a bit. "Am I a twin?"
"My Apoligise Gold, that is what I meant to say, Yes your beauty is a Universal Turth, and Yes you are female!" Patroclus answered in a polite tone, hoping he had not given too much away.
Oh. "No problem, sir!"
If only Patroclus knew some of the mistakes she had made on her homework assignments! Her insides shrivelled up even now, at the memories that his words had unintentionally stirred up.
Must let silly bygones be silly bygones!
"Did Paris, King of Troy, declare me to be the 'fairest' goddess, sir?" she asked, raising a hand.
Mina smiled and tapped her chin in thought. That did narrow it down a bit. "Am I a twin?"
Patroclus was very mpressed by the knowledge his classmates had on the Greek Gods, "No." the Boy Professor smiled at Mina.

A small, cheeky grin, splayed across Patroclus' face, "To your question Gold, I will have to say Yes and No. Yes as it was Paris, but No as he was not a King of Troy."
Patroclus was pleased, he was actaully able to impart some of his Trojan Knowledge to the class, especailly now it was more a game than a lesson.

SHUCKS.
"You know, sir, when I asked that question, I was thinking of silly blunders I've made in the past," Gold said. "I just made another, now." He would get what she meant, of course. Paris = King of Troy = NOT. Paris = Son of King of Troy. See? She made stuuupid blunders, all the time.
Especially when she was thinking of how she could sometimes make really silly mistakes.

Making her way back into the classroom, Destiny didn't bother looking behind her to see if her friends or even Lawson were following. If it weren't for her bag being left in the classroom, she wouldn't have went back, she would have went straight to the Common Room. It wasn't like Lawson would care if she showed up or not, he had said he didn't want to see or hear her..
Moping into the classroom, she plopped down on the sofa she was sitting on before. The lesson, which Patroclus was still teaching, held no more interest to her and she could care less about the Turtle Wars..she cared cared about the turtles as much as Lawson cared about her and her friends..
After she wiped her stinging eyes, she crossed her arms and staaaaared at the floor.
When was class going to end!?

Glancing at the door when she left the room, Evelyn followed Destiny back to class, keeping her eyes on her friend. Just in case she started running or anything, the black eyed Slytherin would be ready and able to catch up.
Not surprisingly though, Destiny didn't run, but instead sat quite still, with watery eyes. Frowning, she looked at everyone else for a moment before quietly sitting next to her friend, taking a quick peak to see if Marie was coming yet. Hearing a loud thud however, seriously hoped that the girl wasn't clobbering Purple Head. She was getting rather used to having Slytherin in first...
Sighing, and keeping her own small tears at bay, since it would be incredibly embarrassing to start crying in class and since she doesn't cry!, Evelyn moved her gaze back to Destiny. "You alright?" she whispered quietly, making sure not to interrupt whatever was going on.
Meep. Purple head, was going down. Since, Lawson didn't care and all... he was practically giving them permission to do so. On second thought, Marie should definitely clobber the kid.

Reaching the door to the classroom Marie quickly wiped the tears from her eyes. She was NOT about to let everyone see that she had been crying. If it wasn't for needing to get that saw back she wouldn't have even bothered coming back to class. It's not like there was a professor that cared if she was there anyway.
Quietly walking in the room she seen that Destiny and Evelyn were sitting on the couch they started at. Walking over to them she grabbed her bag then went and plopped down on the bean bag chair she had put the saw under before leaving. Sliding her hand under the chair she felt that the saw was still there. Opening her bag she placed it on her lap. She then quickly pulled the saw out and slid it in her bag before anyone could see what she was doing.
Yeah, she would find some sort of use for that thing.
Sitting there she now looked over at her friends. Maybe she should just go sit with them. She didn't want to take a chance of Lawson trying to sit on her if he decided he wanted the bean bag chair back for himself. She would hate to have to kick him in front of the whole class. She was sure he would probably start banging his head on something again... and the man could not afford to lose anymore brain cells from all that banging.
On second thought, she was going to stay right where she was because she didn't care anymore. Nope, she didn't care what Lawson did.
Let him BANG his head and act like a fool if he wanted. He was only hurting himself that way, not her.

Gold looked up, when the Slytherins trailed back in. Her first thought was Eli's absence. Where was he? The kid could be scared to death, by anything and everything. They didn't get how to treat him. You only had to offer Eli a kind word, to make him understand.
Of course, if you had tried to eat him or something before you offered that kind word, your chances of making him understand something dimmed considerably. Maybe to the point of temporary non-existence.
Maybe.
... and her second thought was, of course, to ask Marie if everything was alright. But Gold held back. Of lately, she had started to realize she and Marie weren't exactly close anymore. She knew Marie preferred Destiny and Evelyn's company, and Gold wasn't one to interfere. So she gave an inward shrug, and waited for Patroclus to answer her question.
She wondered where Professor Lawson was. Poor guy. All he ever tried was to make things fun for them, and all they ever did was to make his plans backfire. He needed a break, which nobody seemed willing to give him. Gold wished all of this hadn't showed up in this class, though. This class, it should have been fun. Full of memories she would want to remember, next year. Or a decade later, if she lived to see that.
"You know, sir, when I asked that question, I was thinking of silly blunders I've made in the past," Gold said. "I just made another, now." He would get what she meant, of course. Paris = King of Troy = NOT. Paris = Son of King of Troy. See? She made stuuupid blunders, all the time.
Especially when she was thinking of how she could sometimes make really silly mistakes.
"Soo, am I the awesome Aphrodite?" she asked.
Pretty please?
"You my dear Gold are certainly Aphrodite!" Patroclus beamed, his chargers were all growing up so fast! "Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love," Patroclus added for the benefit of all the students!

Disappointed, but not too much so, Emmy plumped for another obvious one,
"Dismal, I know, but how about god of death and the Underworld?" she said, without much hope.

"Not Dismal at all! Death is just as much a part of life as Love and Brains!" Patroclus smiled, knowing Emmy was on the right track! "And your anwser is Yes!"
Finally! Smiling with relief, Emmy said, "Well, in that case, I must be... Hades!" After all, there was only one Greek god ofthe Underworld - wasn't there!
