...Except... they were going to the grounds? Jake walked up all the stairs for nothing? He looked down at his desk, frowning slightly for a second before looking back up. Raising his hand, he answered. "Xylomancy?" Was that what it was called? He remembered learning something back at Durmstrang... "It's using twigs." |
Has Mo too! SPOILER!!: Professor Lex grinned widely when Alice threw all the chocolate frogs in her lap. It didn't bother her in the least bit that the girl took the cards. Pfft. Nope. You couldn't eat those you know. Just as she was about to start devouring one she felt another one land on her lap... What the kneazle..? NOT THAT SHE WAS COMPLAINING! Oh! It was Mo. He earned himself a big BEAAAAAM for his generosity. One could never have too many chocolate frogs and he obviously knew that. "THANKS!" Nooooow she could focus on the Professor and her ques--they were going outside?!?!?! YES!! "Professor, does this mean we get to shoot things with arrows again???" |
Quote:
OH. OH NO WAIT. It was xylomancy. Darn it. Oh, well. She'd let that one go. There were still other ideas out there, right? "And there's some form consisting of reading bird's actions.. something like.." Alice rubbed her temples, wracking her brain for an answer. "Or.. Ornittamolancy.. NO. NO. It's.. um.. Ornithomancy?!" Well? Was that one right? Her fingers were crossed. "And then.. if we could find birds EGGS.. couldn't we do Of.. Ova.. Ovomancy? Something to do with yolks?" |
Minerva smiled at her cousin as she came into class, excited to see Susan in classes. As class began Minerva sat up to get ready to listen, oh outside. Hmm Minerva thought about last term when they went out that was fun. She listened as someone else said about the arrows though. She remembered making the wagons as well, but she didn't know any professor that had done the same lesson yet since she had been at Hogwarts, so she assumed they wouldn't be doing that either. Thinking Minerva put her hand up, "Professor could be be looking at cloud formation or bird formation." She knew they both meant something with Divinations, because she remembered learning about them with other professors, so it seemed like a good guess since it was an outside activity. |
SPOILER!!: Professor Elwood Zhenya was glad to be in Divination with the lovely Professor Elwood. She didn't fully understand it, but it was still fun. But outdoors? She remembered making the karts outdoors in this lesson, but she didn't think that was what they would be doing. She had great memories of classes outdoors, though. They were always fun. And different. Now, forms of divination? Her mouth opened and closed a few times. She had no idea... She slowly raised her hand, "Er Professor could you perhaps be able to use the elements outdoors, say soil, flowers, air... that sort of stuff, for Divination?" She knew it wasn't a FORM but it was all she had. She didn't want to give NO answer. |
They were meant to be going outside? BEAM. That was great because Ells would much rather be out in the sunshine! Not...that she minded where she was seated right now. Blush. Anyways... A type of divination they might be doing outdoors? Well...lots of her classmates had already suggested things she would have picked too. Oh! Like the cloud watching one, Ella liked that idea. She wouldn't mind laying in the grass watching the clouds all class. She tried her best to think of other options too...Hm "Professor, what about anthomancy? That's erm...the one using flowers, yeah?" Ella liked flowers. ^____^ |
Nina stuffed her chocolate frog in her pocket so she could eat it later and put attention to the class. First of all the professor wanted to held it outside The girl raised her hand "Maybe entomancy?" said Nina. That was the name, right? "By using insects" she added. |
Quote:
Also, free chocolate frog. Oh? And nothing is a stupid answer? WELL THEN. West put his hand up. "Westomancy." Paaause. "The one where you do whatever West tells you to do." That was him, fyi. "You can do that anywhere. Inside or outside." Just saying. |
Today's lesson to be held outdoors since it is so nice on the Grounds. Outdoors? Yes, please! Forms of Divination that they could do outdoors? There's the cloud watching thingy but some of his classmate already mentioned that. What else? Hmm. "What about the one that using trees, Professor?" What's they called it again? "Dendromancy?" Or was it Treemancy? No he's pretty sure its dendromancy. |
SPOILER!!: Elwood There was SO much excitement with the whole chocolate frog nonsense, but she tried really hard to take deep, even breaths. If Kurumi was here the two of them would have held each other and cried to console one another because, well, they had a similar fear. Dumb, ruddy pieces of chocolate. WHY did it have to be all complicated? Why couldn't it just be chocolate? No, chocolate frogs had to get all fancy and terrifying. But she was breathing and reciting her little calming technique poem that Kurumi had written them to breath. Chocolate frogs can not hurt you... not a bit... they only attack you if you throw a fit... so take a breath and remember this... THROW THEM IN THE SUN SO THOSE LITTLE BUTTHEADS MELT! ...See? Nice and calming. With her breath under control, she opened her eyes and smiled at Elwood, "I'm okay now... OH LICORICE WAND!" Yum. Yeah, she could totally rock that candy. It was so yummy. With her mouth full of licorice, she said, "Thanks Professor." With everyone around her eating chocolate frogs, Selina kept reminding herself that she was safe in her bubble. She would just throw them all out in the sun to die if the chocolate frogs came anywhere near her. Terrifying little buggers. But she reigned herself back in to pay attention to Elwood. When the woman said that they would be going outdoors Selina beamed, THAT MEANT THAT THE CHOCOLATE WOULD MELT. Awesome. Oh and she also had to answer a form of divination that was commonly associated with the outdoors. Well, Selina could think of a ton of them off of the top of her head, but Elwood was usually really creative and did stuff outside of the box. Not that she needed to... AHEM. Because of reasons. Raising her hand, she answered, "Are we going to be studying austromancy?" It was the use of winds in Divination... it was kind of cool form of a Divination. She had read about it over the summer in her, well, outside studies... yeah. |
SPOILER!!: Calista Mika of course laughed a bit when she heard West's response. Smiling still she raised her hand WAY into the air as Calista asked for forms of Divinations you can use outside. "How about nephomancy Professor Elwood?" She asked her smile still bright. "As nephomancy is a form of Aeromancy - where you use cloud formations in nephomancy to detect patterns and possible outcomes." She smiled. "I know that Aeromancy studies both the wind patterns and cloud shapes and what not...its super super fun." She smiled. Of course it was fun because thats what she had been told about when her mum healed fwoopers that summer. |

Maybe we could use Dacty....Dactylomancy. It needs the light of sun so it can be interpreted..." Had she said it right she really hoped she had said it right! |
Peyton blinked at the chocolate frog in front over her. She doesn't like chocolate. Not one bit...Weeeell, maybe a little bit but only on ice cream, but even that was rare. So, she just stared at the box, a slight pout on her lips. Why couldn't it be a Sugar Quill? One thing the red head couldn't get over was all those stairs she had to climb to get here. Especially from ALL the way from the dungeons. Waaaah! Dear Merlin, how was she going to survive this whole year? Why couldn't they install elevators or those cool moving stair she likes playing on in muggle malls? It'd make this Baltazar's life waaaay easier. Peyton was flicking at the corners of the chocolate frog pack, making it spin on her desk. Then something Professor Elwood said caught her attention and she slowly raised her head. O___O They were going back down those HORRIBLE stairs right after her legs were resting. Was this a a joke?... And would someone give her and piggy-back ride, pleeeease? ^__^ Hmm. She'd keep this chocolate frog and give it to someone else in exchange of a piggy-back ride. Hehe. Ooooh! Question tiiiime! Peyton listened to a few of her classmates before answering. Divination was not this third year's area. Goooosh. Everything ended with 'ancy'. You'd think that'd make it easier for Peyton to remember the titles of Divination forms, but unfortunately, one thing went through one ear and came out the other. Positive side to this. She managed to remember one...sort of. Peyton raised her hand and said, "Erm, there's...Alec...mancy... No, wait. It's Alectryomancy..." Yeah. That was it, riiiight??? |
Quote:
At the professor's question. James took a minute to think of an answer before raising his hand "Professor, can Astronmancy be counted? Its like Astrology but it only focuses on the movement of the stars - unlike Astrology which also looks at planets and stuff." Yup. And stuff. |
SPOILER!!: Professor! Before she knew it, the class had begun and the Professor was already addressing the class about today's lesson. When she asked what forms of Divination they could be studying outdoors, Violet paused and had to think for a moment. And in the process people were already beginning to answer her. It was then that Violet had two possibilities in her head, but she couldn't just pick one. Why not suggest both, make herself feel better at least. She raised her hand and asked,"Maybe we could be studying the form of Xylomancy..or maybe Daphnomancy?" Violet wasn't feeling too confident with them, but at least she couldn't be wrong for at least trying to participate in class? |
VII!! Nessie gave the girl a smile as the blonde popped into the classroom. It was nice to see her again, but no chit-chat for now the lesson was just about to begin and Ness wanted to nom her chocolate frog instead of speaking. Nom. Nom. Nom. The Hufflepuff sat in her desk as she ate her chocolate frog with a wide smile on her face. Happy she was and right now Professor Elwood had officially become one of her favorite Professors just because of these chocolate frogs. Yes chocolate frogs had the power to do just that. Divination outside? Hmmm....The red head pouted for a short well. "Professor, maybe something with birds, or the clouds, or the water in the lake?" Yeah no she wasn't going to use all those long worded terminology. Simple wording was easier. |
SPOILER!!: Oakey and Prof Callie A wink and a smile to go with the greeting back. See this is why this little girl just loved women Professors The red-badged-cookie-shrieking-person apparently didnt like the little boxes. Aquila picked it up again, now even more curious what was inside them. She has discovered nothing but good things when she got to Hogwarts-- what could possibly be about these boxes that got the red-head be so upset about? It was then that she looked up and realized that a yellow robed person joined her at her table--and ohh look! He had a shiny badge too! Soulful brown eyes widens when he gave his little box to her. "Oh Thank you!" she replied gratefully, even if she still had no clue what was in them. And it was rather clear on her face too, as she kept turning the boxes over between her hands. ***** Oh, they were going outside for a lesson. Wonderful! Just like it was back home. But now a question what are they going to learn outside? Others have mentioned the divination of the clouds, but there was something she knew that the Priestesses practiced with regularity. Raising her hand she replied "Professor Elwood.... there is something we do back home where we would study the winds-- we would listen to it and observe the direction and strength of where its blowing, and throw dust or seeds to study wind patterns. My teacher said its called Anemoscopy." |
Kat was totally liking Divination now. She had free chocolate. Ain't that cool? The blonde took a bite from her frog. She bit the head because it was cool and she totally wanted to just bite it off. Not that she was being mean to frogs cos she had a toad. B.O.B. was in her dorm though, and if they get locked out AGAIn then she will totally sue the school for the loss of animal's lives. Professor Newlin should DO something to prevent this. So Divination that can be done outside. "Ambulomancy, Professor?" Kat said. It could be. "It's a kind of divination that involves walking and we are going to go outside right?" They'll be walking... but running was better. And FLYING was the best. Quidditch, FTW. |

...been here all along. :3 .....o__o ......................O___________O....... ......There was a chocolate frog on her desk. A CHOCOLATE frog! Gulping, the Ravenclaw did her best to edge away from the treat as far as she could go. It was generous of Professor Elwood to give them some for her lesson but Beezus just can't....she couldn't have it....she wouldn't have it! It was chocolate, for Merlin's sake! And chocolate was a major NO NO if she didn't want to grow antlers. Ugh, she was allergic to it! And so, eyeing it as though it was the most terrifying thing in the world right now, she subconsciously lent her ears when the woman spoke up and welcome them. She was going to lead them to the Beyond? Meh. If there were chocolate frogs to there, then the Ravenclaw won't go. No, thank you. Outdoors, she said? Beezus flailed inwardly. It was the bestest idea right now, anything to be away from the chocolate frogs which apparently were all over the classroom, in each desks....she saw their number when she took a glance about the room. SHUUUUDDER. Then came the guessing game again. Meh. She'd been noticing this lately. Their Professors seem to like the prospect of letting them guess over what the lesson for the day would be. Unfortunately, she wasn't fond of those....not really. It didn't stop her, however, from raising her hand. "Ambulomancy, Professor? The divination by taking a walk?" WELL...she did say they were heading out. And no answers were stupid as well. Although Beezus couldn't help but snort at West's guess. Slytherins can be really conceited. Oh, and....can they please go NOW? Away from the chocolate frog on her desk? Yes? Yes? |
Daichi was relieved that the professor decided not to do an *entrance* with fire touching the ceiling this time. The Snake would have left the classroom and never come back again. Okay, that was a sort of lie because he HAD to take these classes but still. He ate silently from the chocolate frog and quickly checked the care that came with it. When the chocolate was gone in his stomach and he checked the room and found his Co.-Prefect, Beezus acting strange. He raised an eyebrow at the girl but couldn't say anything more for class begun. Divination they could do outside? Wait! Did that mean they had to go DOWNSTAIRS again?! But the Slytherin's AND Hufflepuff's just came from that direction! Daichi wanted to say *the-why-do-we-have-to-go-downstairs-again ?!* Divination. But he quickly remembered he was wearing a badge on his robe so he couldn't. Mweh! "wood Divination perhaps, professor?" he asked after having raised his hand. |

What was this bribery? He would have just shrugged, and eaten it anyway, but his Ravenclaw co-Prefect had caught his attention by scooting away from her desk. With a knowing look, Spike pulled a paper bag from his pocket, and deftly swapped it with the frog. "Swapsies?" he said to Beezus with a wink. She'd probably guess before looking that the bag contained sugar quills. Spike's pockets always contained some sort of candy (he needed it to get through the dull classes), and it'd become a bit of a joke that he was one of her main sources of sugar quills. And with that sorted, he turned back to the Professor. All guesses were being accepted? Well, in that case Spike could be hopefully inventive, right? With a grin, Spike raised his hand. "Arachnimancy, Professor? The art of using the walking patterns of spiders to understand the future?" ...or was that only relevant if there was a Basilisk nearby? |
Quote:
Guuuuh, these were the worst kind of lessons. Big worded lessons. Theo raised his hand anyway, cos there was one answer that he was pretty sure on. "Looking in crystal balls?" That was so obvious, he was surprised that no one else had said it. Too busy showing off with their fancy words. Or maybe someone had said it but he wasn't listening. |
Well Nigel did not know a lot about Divination and less about what you could do with it outside. He knew about crystal balls and tarot cards and that was about it. "Using Tarot Cards?" You could use them outside. All you needed was a pack of cards you could carry or fit in a coat pocket. |

Someone should really take that chocolate frog away from her. Asap! Or she'd stay that way....flinching, frozen in the edge of her seat, eyeing that treat with terror in her eyes. She glanced around and saw Dai-Dai looking at her. Help!" SPOILER!!: hermygirl The brunette was about to open her mouth and voice out her thoughts when her co-Prefect was suddenly at her side, taking the chocolate frog. Beezus let out a breath she didn't realize she was holding in before accepting the paper bag he was handing out to her. She nodded at the swapping idea. Not that she had any choice left anyway since he had the chocolate frog already and she was holding unto the paper bag now. Eh. Those were sugar quills for sure. Beaming, she mouthed a 'thank you' at him. She was so lucky that he was there. Really. He just saved her. |
