The room was at it's usual pink standard. As you come into the classroom you will notice that there are no scents in the air. Cassie has not been feeling up to her usual room scents lately. The board is bare other than a small and simple direction.
Quote:
Come in, use the snap cup, and sit down. Your snacks can be eaten that you brought!"
Typically in very vibrant colors Professor Cassie is sitting in her chair with just pale pink robes on. Her eyes are at the trap door just waiting for the students to come filing in.
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Adi's face fell slightly. Was Cassie... crying? Well, her eyes certainly looked watery. "I'm great,'' he told her truthfully. "Are you?'' He was uncertain. Had something happened between her and Mr K? Had the Chocolate Frog done something to set her off? He had never seen the woman be sappy.
...................
Nibbling on his Froggie which he held by the leg (thanks for the habit, Hades!), Adi watched Benny enter the room. Were those chocolate covered pretzels? Nom nom! "Hi, lover boy,'' he whispered so that no one would hear. If they did, Benny would go all red but who was to say that wouldn't happen even if no one heard? Hehe.
....................
Right! So the lesson was starting. Adi didn't think much on pink. To him, orange was everything. But hey, everyone had their preferences, right? Snap cup moments happened and then... FOOD! What an awesome topic for the lesson!
The Hufflepuff considered the question, swallowed a bit of Froggie before raising his hand. ''Ichthyomancy is a Divination form by using the heads or guts of fishes.'' Had he gotten that correct?

Was something wrong with Professor Morgan?
Confused, Paulina snapped along to each proud moment but there wasn't much enthusiasm behind it.
Oh well, she had carrot sticks to eat. No chocolate for her today. Taking a nibble from one, she listened as the lesson began. Divination with food sounded fun - so long as meat wasn't involved. As a vegetarian she opposed the killing of animals.
BLEH at Adi's answer though.
Paulina made a face then raised her hand. "We aren't going to look at fish heads and guts...are we?" Not exactly answering the question, but if that was what they were doing she'd have to leave the room. There were some lines she didn't cross, and mutilating an animal was one of them; didn't matter if it was dead or alive.

He was wearing pink. And he wasn't sure how he felt about it.
During Divination we wear pink... Apparently.
But y'know what? Zander Adair had stopped asking questions a long time ago. There were just somethings that Professor Morgan wanted that you had to blindly do. Or else, you'd just end up protesting the entire class all together. Which is why the snapcup was a nobrainer at this point. And the snapping just felt natural. 'Cause he had stopped asking questions.
Well no, he had one question. "Browny-omancy isn't a thing, is it Professor?" Because Zander Adair was actually hoping that the brownies would be the center of the lesson today. No offense to the fish or anything... But uh, no thanks. Onions too. Those things were nasty. And tomatos were alright some times, but c'mon! BROWNIES!!!
The Seventh Year was literally ready to get down on his knees and pray to Merlin himself that they'd get to work with the brownies and not the smelly fish.

Lovely day, yes, yep, that's what it was... though perhaps without the pink.
Zeke continued to inspect his Bertie Botts before stuffing them in his mouth. Red speckled one hmmm?... Cherry tart! And a yellow green one hey?... GODAWFUL! What was that? Spinach? Slime? Spinach-slime?!... Zeke pulled a face, scraping his tongue against his teeth in an effort to be rid of the flavour, and swiftly he took a chance with a brown bean. Coffee. That was better.
He snapped a couple of times, and was mildly amused at his being read out, but otherwise he was distracted by the foods.
When the lesson was officially underway, Zeke was already lost, so again he took a chance on a flavoured bean - this time a mysterious one he couldn't quite pick, but it wasn't... unpleasant per se. Having another gastromancy lesson would be stupid in his opinion, so it had to be something different, what that was... he wasn't sure. "Sucromancy?" he took a stab in the dark. Sugar... a lot of people had sugar.

"Thank you Professor!," she replied smiling lightly at the comment about her hair. Pink wasn't her thing but she did have to admit it looked good in her hair, the light color contrasted nicely against the darker brown. Anyhow she was moving onward quietly sucking on her lollipop as she waited for the lesson to begin.
Annnndddd as the lesson started she feel silent to think about the food items being held up and spoken of. Um yeah sorry but er she honestly had NO clue today. None. Not even a silly random guess. It was all good though she just listened to everyone else answer. Hady looked towards big brother Adi as he answered her eyes falling onto the way he was holding his chocolate frog by it's leg. She couldn't help but grin laughing quietly and smile at the older Hufflepuff. Soon enough though Hady was looking back towards Professor Cassie and waiting on the proper answer. What were they studying today?

There's something wrong with Professor Cassie. And The cotton candy-head who sat beside her agreed with her. She seemed... off. well, the Professor was still cheerful, or tried to be. But she's not as cheerful as usual. And Henric was right, no fancy scents.Maybe she was right that Professor Cassie lost her cat. She could offer a help to find them, Preston was lost too once and she was being helped by Riley and Professor B.
Ava nibbled her muffins and listened to the Professor. She noticed the fish, brownie, lettuce and onion. Huh? "I don't think we can use brownie since the only thing that brownie could do is being such a good bake treat." Hehehehe. "But maybe with the fish?"

It didn't matter that the words were whispered for his benefit only. Benny could feel his cheeks redden slightly at them regardless. "Adi..." he whispered back, admonishing his boyfriend. The Gryffindor really didn't want to be the shade of his shirt all during the lesson before them.
Speaking of lesson, Professor Morgan was beginning and he was glad for the distraction. First there was the snaps and as always, the seventh year did his best to snap along like the professor liked them too. He could almost figure out which one was Adi without a doubt, narrowed down between two. And then class began in earnest, the discussion of food as the topic being mentioned.
Benny took a chocolate covered pretzel and began absently nibbling on it as responses to the question were given. He did have to make a face at what Adi brought up beside him. Fish guts were not something he wanted to deal with, no matter how many seemingly gross things he had previously dealt with in potions and herbology. "Could the layers of an onion be looked at in that way?" He'd try for a less horrible option.
Angel smiled at the professor and said that she was well when the Professor asked, but then the lesson was starting and she was very confused about what all this meant. "Professor maybe you are going to break the brownie up and see if it can work like the tea-leaves can?" Angel thought it would be cool if it worked, but what about the others items, she didn't think they would work for divinations, just making salads.
Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite
They were gonna be learning about using food for Divination? Was it any wonder he really really liked this class??? Blaise glanced only briefly over at his cousin, wondering if he couldn't be normal for once and bring ACTUAL snacks. Now he would have to share, clearly and so the boy reached over and placed a pack of jelly slugs at his desk.
"You're welcome."
Now where were they? Oh yes, the lesson. Attention back to the Professor, he watched her pick up various food items. For lack of knowing the answer, the boy was willing to assume all could be used but he was specifically sold on the brownie.
"I don't know if I agree with Ava." Brownies had mad use, yo. "If I saw a brownie, I'd think I was gonna have a VERY good say. So I reckon brownies must be a sign of fortune and all that." Or misfortune if you found and ate one that belonged to an older student with a rotten temper. Yikes.

What? WHat?! Bentley frowned at Blaise and put the jelly slugs back on his cousin's desk. Did he know the kind of trouble he'd get into for over indulging in junk food?
"No thank you Blaise. I've already had enough sweets for the week." He had a system you see, that his mother had all of them on since he was a baby. It had been routine enough, where going off his diet would be quite weird for him.
Bentley wasn't sure what to make of divination or what the professor was talking about so he sat quietly and listened.
"Maybe the tomato?....because tomato juice?" What was he talking about? He had no idea.

Pink was a color he didn't mind wearing. He had a few pink shirts and the color looked good on him if he said so himself. Actually every color looked good on him ha ha. Except orange...orange was just... he made a face.
So entering the classroom with a light pink blouse and black pants, Yoongi had a smile on his face that he couldn't place. "lovely day isn't it, Professor?" he said as he wrote down something for the snap cup with his bright pink flamingo quill.
SPOILER!!: snapcup Show
Turning around, Yoongi saw Norah and sat next to her. "Hey, what you think of my tie?" he asked, turning his upper body to show her his darker pink tie. "Its the Gryffindor one but i managed to transfigure the color, pretty cool huh?" he grinned.
It was hard to miss Yoongi's bright pink flamingo quill, even though she hadn't seen him walk in on account of her search for somebody who'd want to share her muffin. She grinned at him as he sat down. That's what REAL friends did, after all. They sat beside you when they knew you were in desperate need of somebody to share with. "Hey." Norah looked him up and down before giving a thumbs up. "It's good! Needs sparkles, though." She still hadn't figured out how to add sparkles with her wand, but that could come later. Plus, there was nothing wrong with a good ol' fashioned sticking charm with all the glitter she had. It was always important to have an emergency supply; you never knew when somebody would need cheering up. She pulled her pink hat off her head and ignored the fact that her hair was sticking up in all sorts of directions, before nudging her muffin in his direction. "Want some?" Norah hadn't seen him take out a snack yet. What if he STARVED? Muffin sharing was very important business.
When the reading of proud moments began, Norah looked up at the non-cheery Professor Cassie and snapped along with her (or tried to, anyways. The gloves made it impossible to actually have a sound). Hers wasn't chosen, which was tragic because she was actually really proud of that one, but she shrugged off her disappointment and tore off a little piece off the edge of her muffin. Okay. Food. That couldn't be too bad, right? As long as it wasn't fish she'd be A-okay. Eating a muffin and thinking about fish guts and brains at the same time didn't really sound like the most pleasant idea, after all. She'd never actually heard of lettuce divination, but she put a hand up to take a guess anyways. "Lettuce has veins, maybe we can use those? Kinda like we can read the lines on somebody's palms to tell something about them." WHY somebody would want to know the future of a piece of lettuce was beyond her. Maybe it could help with deciding what to eat for lunch?

Olly hadn't even known that professor Cassie had not been at school for the past couple of days. It's not like he saw much of her outside of lessons. At least, he didn't really pay attention when he did see her. He didn't pay attention to what most professors did outside of lessons with them.
Food during lessons was always welcome. He liked when they were able to eat snacks in the classroom, unlike certain classes he might be able to name. This one was extra special, because the food was actually going to play a role in the lesson. It wasn't just for eating. What was it going to be used for, though. Olly had no idea, but he raised his hand anyway. It was worth a shot.
"Anything can be used for Divination." It certainly seemed like it. He was pretty sure that professor Cassie was just going to tell them how to use each of those foods she had to tell the future or something.

Was that a stupid thing to ask? She was planning on having a dinner in class.
Cassie couldn't help but giggle a bit at Larissa's answer, "I don't think this combination would be a very good dinner, but nice guess. We won't be having dinner here though don't worry." She still wasn't a great cook and to be honest Leo did most of their cooking. She did get snaps for her effort.

He furrowed his brows and thought that was an odd combo. He tilted his head in confusion and thought it was bizarre.
He heard her question, "Do you think we could do divination with all of these items? If not, which could we use?" He literally had NO clue but he was gonna guess. "Professor I think we could use the onion and fish because it could heighten our smell sense which could be used for divination?" He was just totally spit balling here.
"Heighten the sense of smell could be an understatement right now." Or was that just her that really wasn't able to handle smells? Stepping away from the fish a bit she turned back to the students, "Smell has nothing to do with this form of divination, but very good guess." He got snaps for his answer.

As for all the food... hmm. He munched on a pretzel thoughtfully, as though that might give him inspiration. Then he looked at it more closely as he got an idea. He'd read something in their textbook about food divination... or was it in his History textbook? Something about Egyptians, and onions? Was that true? He quickly flipped to the glossary in the back of the Divination book to check, and then raised his hand.
"Cr-cr-cromniomancy, I think it's called, is divination by onion," Davie suggested. "I don't know about the others, but maybe if you fed them to an animal and then used the animal," or its remains, but he wasn't going to be gruesome and upset the professor, "that might be a thing?" Maybe? She probably knew what he was talking about. Maybe.
"Very good Davie, Cromnimancy is a form we will be talking about today. The onion is a very key part of our discussion." She held it up for all to see. She couldn't help but crinkle her nose at the animal part though, no they wouldn't be doing anything to animals this lesson. Well at least living ones. She glanced at the fish. Giving him snaps for his answer just the same, "We wont' be combining anything or feeding them to anything, but very good guess."

He had to say that word.. guts, she knew it was coming though. It had to come up eventually. Though the image might have made her look a little green in the gills herself, "Very good Adi, we will touch on Ichthyomancy today." So much to do and say. So much was going on!

"Another fun answer, though it won't be what we are talking about, but like Mr. Adair prove that this can be a form and you could certainly become famous in the divination world." Wouldn't that be a great thing to see one day. Her own students masters of Divination. He got snaps for his answer.

Yes the creativity was very strong with these students, she was giving snaps to every single one, though she was getting exhausted from it and had to take a seat again. "I would think it was meaning good things to come as well. It's not the topic today, but I think we have a group that might be able to figure out their own form of Divination." It took time to research and prove, but if they were dedicated they could do it.

Now that she was sitting again Cassie looked at the table where her food items were. She was going to have to get back up, wasn't she? Slipping her shoes off she stood and moved back to the table, "Now many of you had the best ideas, but only a few of you hit it right on. We will be looking at two items today. The fish and the onion. Now we said that the fish was ichthyomancy. It can also be called two other things, does anyone know what those are?"
Looking around and waiting for them to answer she moved her wand so that the students each had a fish in front of them. "You will see that the fish are all already dead, so you won't be harming them to do this and I did not harm them to do this lesson. They had passed and were sent to me." She wouldn't kill any animals for Divination.
"Now does anyone know what we need to do with the fish for a reading?"

No, Davie did not know the other names for itchy-thy-yo-mancy, or however you said it. He was sure his textbook had some commentary on it, but his fingers currently had chocolate on them, and he wasn't about to put his sticky chocolate fingers into his precious textbook. No no no no, he could answer the second question by raising his sticky fingers.
"We have to cut off its head!" the first year declared. He kinda wanted to see the nice professor do this. "Or use its entrails, I think." See, that kind of related to his original idea of feeding animals the food items....

Adi smirked at Benny. Did he know his dragon or what? Just look at him all pinkish. Ehehe. That nickname was going to stick forever, though.
As he lowered his hand after answering the question. Was it just him or did Cassie look a little... green? Something seriously was off with the woman today. Maybe he would ask about it later. You know, as a concerned student and since she was one of his favourite Professors. Oh, and he saw you, Hades! Adi grinned as he watched her laughing, raising the Frog as though doing a toast.
....................
Uh, no. Adi did not remember either of the two other names though he had read about them during his study sessions. Heh. You'd think he would retain stuff he revised. Okay, he couldn't remember everything but he did think he could remember what they needed to do for a fishy reading. Also, did Cassie have to say she didn't harm the fishes? Everyone should already know that she hadn't.
Adi raised his hand again. "We observe the fish's appearance, I think.'' He eyed the fish before him, now munching on a bit of chocolate covered pretzel he snagged from the boyfriend. He swallowed quickly before continuing. "Their behaviour is also something that can be used but not in this case.'' Because they were deaaad. Poor fishies.

Well, you can sure bet that Zander was disappointed to hear that brownie-omancy wasn't a thing. But he was probably even more disappointed to hear that fish and onion --omancies were.
Ichthyomancy.
He couldn't even pronounce that.
Also, ew.
Okay, Zander was all for creatures... But dead fish definitely did not make the cut. And Zander was not about this life. Upon receiving the dead fish, the Gryffindor's hand shot straight up to hold his nose. Merlin, this was terrible. And he had no idea how the fish were supposed to be used, but uh, here's to hoping they wouldn't have to eat them.
If so, Zander was out. Sorry, Professor. But there was only so much a boy was wiling to do for divination.

OH THANK MERLIN.
Paulina gave a sigh of relief. So long as they weren't mutilating animals she was okay with this lesson. And even if she wasn't concerned about animal rights, seeing fish heads and guts would turn just about anyone off.
Her alarm did return, however, when she was staring right at one of the dead creatures. They better have died of natural causes or Paulina wouldn't be happy. Killing animals was wrong and she didn't even harm insects. If they were in the house she just brought them back outside. Fact of the matter was that even if Professor Morgan hadn't killed them, someone else MIGHT HAVE.
Raising her hand, Paulina offered a guess. "Do we look at the fish's appearance? Maybe there is a pattern in its scales? Or something to do with its fins?"She had no idea.

Not sucromancy then? That was a shame, but it wasn't going to stop him from consuming his beans... the next was a delightfully tangy tangerine. TANGerine! Zeke didn't much fancy becoming a diviner... or seer or whatever, so he wasn't about to 'explore' his 'sucromancy' idea. He had better things to do with his time.
And ew.
Was she trying to make them lose their appetites? Onions weren't so bad, though not great... and fish.. he doubted very much that it would be presented baked in paper with dill and a squeeze of lemon. Shame... he could actually go for some of that right now.
"We gut it, Professor," he announced, convinced of this fact. Mmhhmm. Nice nasty gutting... and as for the onion... how was that connected? "Or... we look at layers? Fish have muscle layers, and onions have layers..." yep... it sounded legit to him. He wouldn't question it. How an 'inner eye' came into this he had no idea, nor did he particularly care.

Fish? So she was right about that? To be honest, Ava just answered it randomly. Hehehe. Oh hello, dead fish. Too bad that they're dead already. Though fish was such a boring pet, but she loved seeing fish swimming around the pond or the fishbowl. "Maybe we're gonna see through the fish bone? or the shape?" The young lioness wasn't really sure. "Also... can we use any kind of fish?" Like... piranha? Or shark? Wooooo....

They would be doing Divination with fish and onions. Um well alright then. Not the coolest items to use but she'd certainly give it a go just like with everything else. For all she knew this could be rather interesting to say the least.
Hady shifted in her seat sitting up more as she listened. She couldn't recall what either methods proper name was but that was alright. "I know that if the fish were still alive then we could study their movements but seeing as they are not any longer I'm hoping that we do what Paulina and Adi suggested and study the appearance." Mhmm she didn't feel much like cutting up an animal. So could they just look at the fish or something?

Larissa just sat there and shrugged. She tried to best with this class but she was just horrible at it. It wasn't her fault that she couldn't fully grasp it but at least she was participating. That was the most important part and it prevented her from falling asleep or crying and that right now was a very good thing. Now on to the fish. The brunette didn't know whatsoever, what was something that could be done with a fish in this class. "Does it reference to a body of water somehow?" Honestly that was worth a guess.

A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
“No thanks, I’m not hungry” he waved his hand at the muffin she was trying to give him. It was a nice gesture but no thanks. The fact that Norah thought his transfigured tie looked good made him beam. He smiled broadly at the tie because he had failed multiple times before it had worked. Showed that working hard paid off. Her comment about the sparkles made him snap his fingers. Cause this was Divination and finger snapping happened here when someone had a good idea.
But because class had begun and Yoongi didn’t want to interrupt the class with his chatter, so he leaned in closer to the Hufflepuff Prefect to whisper “You should lend me some of those sparkles”. He grinned as he sat back in his own personal space and looked at the Professor like nothing happened.
So they were going to divination with fish….huh…weird. What was even weirder was the name of the fish divination ichtyomancy. It sounded very ..itchy… Anyways, the Gryffindor thought of what they could do with that form of Divination and the first thing that came in to his mind was ‘cut off their heads’ which sounded really brutal to him so he kept it to himself…..unlike a certain Ravenclaw First year over there…. Heh. “Maybe use the bones of the fish…?”

Even if he didn't want any muffin, sparkle sharing could happen for SURE. Duh. She smiled and nodded quickly, only registering how close he'd gotten when he leaned back again. Huh. There were more important things to pay attention to, though, like not failing her Divination OWL which was probably likely at this point because fish and onions? Really?? Of all the good foods she could've picked, Professor Cassie picked those. No wonder she wasn't looking happy as usual.
Norah wrote Ichthyomancy on top of her parchment. Well, it took her a few tries to spell it right, but at least she got there eventually. Ichthyomancy. How was she even supposed to know how to SAY that? This is what happened when you picked a bad food. Brownie-omancy like Zander had mentioned sounded much more pleasant. Nevertheless, she put a hand up in the air to take a guess about this fish thing. "Maybe we can REVIVE the fish, and watch how it swims around to learn something about the future." Live fish were 2387498237x more fun than dead fish. Everybody knew that.
Angel looked at the Professor and smiled as she raised her hand. "Professor are we going to be asking them by looking at them to see what they know?" Angel hoped they weren't going to be cutting them up because even though they were dead she didn't think she could cut one up.

Okay, ew.
The onion didn't really bother her, since she knew that the worst that could happen with it is starting to cry when cutting it up (not to mention, she had onion flavor in her snack). But fish had guts inside. Gross, disgusting guts that she would rather not have to look at. Or, you know, prepare to see her potato chips in reverse.
"Maybe we look at their eyes.....?" Please let them at least be looking at the outside of the fish. Heather was enjoying her chips too much to see them come back up today.
