IC Date, time, location: Thursday, 8th December, 1pm 2091 , Room of requirement (password to get inside is crystal ball)
A RoR room will be utilized for this afternoons divination lesson to not let the frigid december weather interfere, since a heavy snow storm of the previous night, put an effective stop to a lesson outside on the grounds. As you step over the threshold to the 'classroom' you'll find that the room is pretty spacious and warm, but not stuffy.
The desks and have been grouped in a half circle and all the chairs are cushioned for comfort. Professor Vance is standing in the middle of the spacious room dressed in shimmering red robes, sipping on a steaming cup of tea, next to several cloaked objects, and overhead something is floating around cloaked too.
"Good afternoon, please find a desk, we will begin shortly." Professor Vance chirps warmly as the first students step inside. All the cloaked objects are perfectly masked in black silk as to not give away what the lesson will be about just yet.

Professor Vance sadly didn't have time to move or throw up a shield charm before the glass rained down all over her head.
Raising her hand to the throbbing pain on her cheek she started to shake off the glass, of course managing to cut a few fingers that started to bleed. Laurel was wondering who had shot the arrow that was now lying at her feet. The panicked voice of young Carlton pleading that she wouldn't throw him in the dungeons answered that question.
Heading over towards Carlton and River too with her bleeding fingers and cheek Laurel reassured the young boy with a soothing voice. "It's all right Carlton, I'm not going to throw you in the dungeons. I know you didn't break the window or injure me on purpose. There is always a risk with an arrow lesson. Aiming a bow and shooting an arrow isn't easy when you've never tried it before, you've been doing great!"

Ignoring the pain in her cheek as well as her numbing fingers Laurel turned so that she looked out over all the students as she called out. "That's a wrap everyone! Class is dismissed! Feel free to finish up your last shots. You can put your bows and quivers back in the stalls on your way out. Have a nice few hours before dinner." With that she turned her attention to her injuries, shaking her head and wondering how a very blunt arrow still could cause so much damage.
OOC: Class dismissed! Thank you all for a very fun and memorable lesson. Arrows seemed to have been a real hit. I'll leave the lesson thread open until around 6pm GMT+1 tonight for wrapping up and leaving posts.

He was a horrible Robin Hood.
Professor Vance dismissed the class but Carlton didn't really listen. He knew the healer would take care of the injuries but still Carlton was the cause of it. He might just break down and wail loudly.
"I'm a HORRIBLE Robin Hood!" He put down the bow and quiver of arrows faaar away from him. Not touching that again. "I'm so sorry professor Vance!" Cue the crying.
Class dismissed and Skylar was about to place her bow and quiver of arrows back in the supply area when she stopped short of going to get her bag and leaving. Because she heard an exclamation that made her heart skip a beat and she just HAD to go over and comfort him.
"No you're not!" She went over and promptly wrapped her arms around the small first year. Cue protective mode. "It was an accident and Professor Vance isn't upset. It's not like you purposely injured her and the Healer will clean her up." Sky nodded consolingly, rubbing his upper back. "But if you'd like, I know something that will make her feel better...." She whispered the last part to him. "A hug."

Blood. River's eyes widened as Laurel approached him and Carlton, but he managed not to say anything. Cuts were easy to heal so there was really no reason to panic. The Healer placed a hand on Laurel's shoulder, gently forcing her to face him and quickly inspected her wounds. "It's a good thing your wounds aren't deep. I will--" River's words were cut off when Carlton expressed his frustration for everyone to hear.
Was Jace watching this? Because he sounded just like Carlton minus the emotional outburst.
Skylar was quick to be by her house mate's side, and River was thankful for it. He took the moment to reach inside his pocket, and opened a small packet of dampened gauze with murtlap essence. Without a word, he started to apply it on Laurel's cheek, hoping that Carlton would feel at ease once he sees that his professor's face isn't bleeding anymore.
"Master Lewis?" River turned to face the first year, and smiled down at him. "You're not horrible. In fact, I will be needing your help right now." Surely, Laurel wouldn't mind? It would also be the perfect opportunity for the Divination Professor to assure her student that none of the accident was a big deal. "You too, Miss Diggory, if you wish to come along." River gave the she-snake a look, and a quick glance at Carlton. He was sure the kid needed emotional support.
So, will they help him out or not?
OOC: Hey guys, if you wish to come and play with us, please wait for Professor Vance to let you in her office. ^^ OOC #2: First OOC note has been Eva-Approved ^^
