Professor Thorne walked from his office, and into his dimly-lit classroom, where the swing music was playing full beat. He pointed his wand at his table, and tapped his wand. A tea pot appeared, along with a cup and saucer. He then tapped it again, and each desk in the room received a tea pot and cup. He had planned to attempt this lesson once more, and prayed that Knightly didn't act up again.
With a smile, he sat down in the winged arm chair at the front of the room, with his wand tucked away in his robes. The bell was due to ring at any moment, and he expected a few early birds.

Why oh why am I doing this again?
The wonderings of Amelia Kons as she made her way up the silver ladder which led to the Divination classroom were anything but calm, but as a dedicated student she had forced herself to pack up her books and report for class despite the mishaps of the last lesson.
Pushing up the trapdoor she entered the classroom with as much grace as one might hope entering vertically, and to her distaste she looked upon a classroom filled with....
...tea.
Oh not again...

Sean had been walkind down the hall towards the ladder. He could smell the tea even form below the class. It got stronger and stronger as he apparoached andfinally as he enterd it was clear as day.
"Ugh... A whole pot... Lets hope I dont have to drink it." he said as he lazily dragged himself to a desk and plopped down along with the clatter of the tea cup on the saucer.

Ariel dreaded this class for some reason now, though she didn't enjoy it. It seemed wierd. As she entered she looked to see, with no surprise, tea. She chose a spot near the door where she could escape first. She just hoped the Slytherin wouldn't be coming. She was third in as she just noticed two others, Sean and Amelia. They were all seekers, which seemed to be the only thing she noticed. And prefects... and fifth year.

You......have.....got........to.......be......kidding.......me....
Amelia thought each word simultaneously with her footsteps as she trudged across the classroom and took a seat next to Sean and simply dropped her things at her feet. She tried to put on a smile for him but it turned out to be a bit more of a half-smile half-grimace.
"I thought I might want to be in on the forewarnings," Amelia said jokingly as she looked over to him, once again attempting happiness at the beverage in front of her.

"Load of rubbish- don't know why I have to take this course" Lorelai muttered under her breath as she climbed the ladder leading to the Divination class. Finally reaching the top she climbed through the trapdoor, engulfed almost immediatley by the smell of tea.
No please- not tea...

Cody smiled as students started to gather in his classroom. He noted the look on Amelia's face at the sight of tea, and shook his head looking to her. "You have a choice, Miss Kons. Tea Leafery, or another form of Divination, which I will detail in my office. You're choice."
He smiled and looked to Lorelai when she walked in mumbling. She, more than likely, didn't expect him to hear, but he did. "You take the class, Miss Evans, because I am very lenient...and it was written in the stars." He said and pulled out a star char. "Or that's what I would say if I were what type of Seer?" He said, asking the girl a little pop question.

At the mention of her name Amelia looked away from Sean, still smilng, to find the professor addressing her. At his notion - suprising to her - Amelia sorted through her thoughts quickly and nodded.
"Well, perhaps I could take you up on both," she said, aware that this would mean much more divination than she may be comfortable with, "Wouldn't want to miss out on anything, now would I?"
What am I getting myself into? Amelia's wonderment battled with her quest for any and all knowledge, but she had already committed herself so there was no backing out now.

Professor Thorne's eyes danced as Amelia's response. He hadn't expected her to be so keen to the thought of extra Divination, aswell as her regular class load. He nodded and rose, from the air chair, shutting the music of with a wave of his hand. "Wonderful. Shall we say, tomorrow evening, around seven o'clock, in my office." He smiled and picked up a fallen book, and returned it to a Gryffindor. "Well then, if you will all open your books to page two-hundred and fifty. We shall begin."

"Seven it will be," Amelia said, making a mental note not to make plans at that time. Her internal system was already dueling with itself, but she had no time to pay it mind when Professor Thorne began today's lesson.
Yes, now it's official. You....are.....completely...insane!
Even while telling herself this, she sensibly opened her text to the appointed page and began to scan the headings.

Glad that she was saved from answering the question, Lorelai took a seat at an empty table- the second closest to the door. Turning her book to page 250, she sighed and rested her elbow on the table.
This is going to be a long class...

Ariel sat looked at the tea. It sat there looking back at her. Why did it have to be tea? She didn't have the choice like Amelia, but she didn't need that other choice. She tapped the cup with her wand and the liquid started to swirl. She put her elbow on the desk, leaning on her hand watching the swirling liquid. Ariel sighed and put her wand back in her robe pocket. It was definetly going to be a long class. She noticed the other Gryffindor sitting next to her.
"Hey, I'm Ariel. Your on the Quidditch team to, right?"

Lorelai, who had been staring distastefully at the tea in front of her, looked up at the girl sitting beside her.
"Yeah. I'm Lorelai- the Keeper. Aren't you the seeker?"

Sean smiled back at Amelia as he could tell she wasnt looking forward to the tea part of today. He was about to tell her nothing would happen if he was next to her because then he would get involved. But before he could Professor Thorne spoke.
He turned to Amelia as she chose to do extra divination.
"I didn't know you liked this class so much." Sean whisperd in her ear as he leaned over. The thought of extra divination made him grimace. Though he did like Professor Thorne alot he still did not like the calss.
He then opend his book to page 250 at the instructions of the Professor.

Professor Thorne smiled as the class opened their books, and started to skim the material. He turned to Lorelai and nodded. "Miss Evans, I would be a Centaur if I practiced looking for the future in the stars. Which mind you children, is one of the better methods." He said sticking a finger up in the air. With a nod, he turned around, and walked to behind his desk, where he sat on his chair. " May I have two volunteers, please? First two to get up here, if you will." He said, and left the option open.
