Hehehe. Iris KNEW that was the rune it was. As she chomped on some marshmallows, Iris listened as the professor spoke.
Hmmm... Berkanan. Iris thought for a minute about the name, and tried to get things to come to mind. Raising her marshmallow-y stick, Iris spoke up. "Berkanan is the rune of Growth and fertility, I believe."
NOMNOMNOM. Chocolately marshmallows. Hehe.

Energy. Happiness. Of course. "Danger and chaos. Nice interpretation." Di - who missed the fact that Evelyn's gaze was practically glued to a certain Slytherin as she said this - could see how that made sense. Oh...crud. "Flores...shepard." Bahaha! This was literally, tougher than she thought to say. Once class was over though, she needed to talk to Destiny. "And, the Berkanan rune...I think it means Birch tree. Which would also relate to the fact that the rune means Growth since the Birch tree has been known to mean...growth as well." Right? She couldn't remember since the last time she picked up her rune book was last term. She was too busy studying Transfiguration over the summer to study anything else, but, she had a good feeling she remembered correct.y

Sophrina tapped her chin, thinking about the meaning of Berkanan. Then the answer came to her head, but she wasn't sure if it was the right one. What if she looked like a fool if it wasn't? Eh, might as well take a risk. "The rune Berkanan represents birch...which means growth?" that didn't sound right...well it did, but still. Sophie took bite of her marshmallow and pondered on her answer.

Alaster thought about the rune for a minute and then remembered, "Berkanan means growth..." and then he was stumped. Was that it? Or was there more that he was forgetting to mention.

Ooooh, Rubiey knew that one. Its translation is Birch Twig. It can mean growth, fertility, re-birth, new life, A new broom, or physical beauty or stature." A new broom. Teeheee. Rubiey wanted a new broom. She sat there, her eyes glazing over, and imagined herself on a new broom..

Literal meaning, 'birch.' It is another of the runes recorded in all three Rune Poems, and represents nourishment, new beginnings, physical or emotional growth, and progress. Quite a positive rune, in fact."
Tap, tap on the chalkboard. "The Slytherins are on fire! Eleven points ahead of Ravenclaw, the closest competitor, now." Impressive.

And by not having read the runes book over the summer, she had almost forgotten just how many runes there were. "That rune is...ingwaz i think? It has the meanings of harmony and agreement." Something they all really needed actually. Like herself for example. She needed to agree more often which...she was trying hard to do! She was agreeing with what the professor said about her last name. Flores Shepard was good enough.

"Is that the ingwaz rune?", Fee asked a bit unsure.
"If it is then its represents worried-ness with new beginnings, new opportunities and new life. Peace and harmony are also associated with the Ingwaz Rune and can indicate agreements, cooperation and togetherness.
Overall the appearance of the it is seen as a good omen in regard to all areas of life and can show newness coming up for you" she said taking a deep breath.

Glancing up at the Rune and the names thrown out, Sabel blinked from his chocolately S'more. "Ingwaz is also a god. Closely related to the old name for the god Freyr, which means Lord." Wait, was this Runes or mythology...or both?

Iris watched as people guessed the next Rune. She didn't recognise it, though. So she just sat there, burning a couple of marshmallows on a stick before eating them.
She's get the next one though. Maybe... Heh.

"Ingwaz," Lina said softly. "Two of the runes representing 'I,' but ingwaz as the 'ee' sounds as opposed to the 'eye' sound when reading the runes as letters."

Oooh.Finn knew that one. With a smirk, he shoved a marshmellow into his mouth, before raising his hand. "Thats Algiz isn't it." He grinned. How epic was he.

Protection, Concealment, Opportunity...Protection, Concealment, Opporunity. Frowning, Sabel plopped a marshmellow onto a stick and held it over the fire, thinking for a moment. Something about..."Algiz? The rune is named Algiz. Which translated, roughly means Pine Woods or Sedge Reeds?" Which only reminded him of the pine bed he was sooo looking forward to sleeping on.
