Penelope had been surprised when Kain had volunteered. That was twice that he had surprised her today. After Professor Nadya finished her description of Kain, Penelope didn't know what to think. She could see Kain as an emperor actually.. he did have that kind of air about him.. Regal maybe?
She looked back at him and smiled, this was interesting.
Without taking another moment to think it through, Pen raised her hand to go next.

Professor Nadya smiled at Kain as to say "you're welcome," and then she looked at Penelope. She smiled happily at the blue-grey eyed girl and picked up her card. After viewing it a moment, Professor Nadya once more looked at Penelope.
Perhaps there was more to this young girl as well.. this card surprised Nadya. She smiled and held the card up for the class to see.
"This is the Hanged Man," she informed, "This card signifies someone who does not just look at the outward view of things but seeks the meaning behind it. Someone who has great instincts and understanding of things perhaps beyond even their own selves. A person who does not simply choose a path because it is an easy one to follow, but because they believe it is the right one to follow, even if it is a difficult path." She said.
She put the card down and smiled, "I definately have some very interesting students in this class, no?" she said, before taking the next volunteer.

"yeah" Alice replied to Pen smiling the room was beautifully decorated with foreign exotic shawls drapes and cushions it gave a sort of fairytale theme to the room....... Alice liked divination it wasnt one of her favourites but she found the who subject fascinating and like a few others in the class she sometimes liked trying tarot cards not often though but she found them interesting... Proffesor Nadya had told quite a few people what their card she had picked told about them and asked for another volunteer. Alice smiled warmly at the teacher and raised her hand. Alice wondered what her card would tell

Professor Nadya saw that Alice had raised her hand and so she reached down to pick up the card that was drawn for her. She looked at it a moment and smiled happily at Alice, showing the class what the card was.
"This is a very good card Alice, it shows great promise of good things to come. It signifies that you are a very good and kind person who has not had it so good.. your not so distant past vas a painful one that you did not deserve. However, this card also signifies change, and karma. It seems that your luck is changing here at Hogwarts, you vill go on fun adventures and form great friendships." Nadya said. She laid the card down on the desk.
"Vill there be another volunteer or shall I start vith the picking?" Professor Nadya requested.

"Vill there be another volunteer or shall I start vith the picking?" Professor Nadya requested.

Professor Nadya's small smile widened when she saw Will raise his hand.
"Ah peaked your curiousity now Mr. Thorn? Very good," She said, pleased. She picked up his card and showed it to the class.
"This is the Knight of Vands," she informed the class, "It symbolizes someone who is charismatic, and likes being the center of attention. Someone who enjoys wild parties, and also showing off whenever possible. The person who gets this card has a tendacy to be very headstrong and narcissistic, however.. he is also very loyal to his friends. I have a feeling that the Emperror and the Knight of Wands don't get along very vell because there are often battles to see who's the leader."
After finishing her description of the Knight of Wands, Professor Nadya once more smiled at Will, and raised her eye brow. "Does this sound like you, Will?" She questioned. She then looked over at Kain and winked.

All the class except for three, volunteered to have their card read. Professor Nadya looked at the three remaining; Kyle, Desiree, and Draco. She was trying to decide who to call on next since it was apparent that they would not volunteer.
"Very vell, I vill pick the next card," She said, without looking she picked up a card. She glanced at it and smiled at Draco.
"The Ten of Vands," she informed and showed the card to the class (OOT: I could actually put a picture of the card whenever she's suppose to show it if you all are curious to what they look like..).
"This card symbolizes someone who likes to be thought of as the one in charge. He likes to have people following his orders without them questioning his authority. He builds himself up to show how important he is, it shows great riches. However, sometimes he may find being in charge can drive him crazy.. depending on who he surrounds himself with." She finished.
She then picked up another card, after looking at it, she looked at Desiree. "Desiree, your card vas the Page of Swords." She informed and showed the card to the class, "This card symbolizes a person who enjoys talking, about everything and everyone. they have a tendacy to be very blunt as vell, and have no problem telling information that isn't theirs to give. A good point to this is that they have good communication skills."
She put this card down and picked up the last one. After looking at it she began. "That leaves Kyle. Kyle, your card was the Chariots," she showed the card to the class, "This card symbolizes determination and a good mind. The person that this card represents is a good communicator and can be very charming at times. He is driven to succeed and will stop at nothing to get what he wants."
She laid the card down, now finished with the reading the students cards. She waited a moment, letting all the students prepare to continue with their lesson. When she was satisfied that they were ready, she cleared her throat.
"If you look on the table beside each of you. There is a deck of tarot cards. A deck for each student. Tarot cards are the perfect way to introduce you to divination and so for the first lesson we will be using these. Included in each deck there is a booklet that describes each card as well as telling you how to do a reading. I vould like you to pick someone in the class to do a practice reading vith. I only have one rule. It can not be the person you are sitting vith. Now go ahead, find your partner."

Alice sighed who would she pick she didn't no many others in the class, Penelope would be ok with Gryfin the only person Alice could partner with would be Will, Alice thought back a blush and suceeded. This was going to be a long lesson. not that she minded though but it was slightly embarresing especially after the lake. She brought some courage and looked over to him, he looked a bit confused as well maybe he was wondering who to pick as well.
She motioned over to him catching his attention and asked him if he wanted to partner up. He nodded and she made her way over to him carring her Tarots.
"Hey" greeted Alice setting down the cards setting them out "I see your hairs dried" she said giving a little smirk, she set the tarots up properly getting ready to work. "So do you want to go first or should I" she asked her companion.

Will sighed who would he partner with, Blaize had partnered with Draco. who could he partner with well there was Kyle or Desiree Will didn't fancy partnering with them. He looked over and saw Alice, grinning he nodded when she asked to partner with him. she made her way over and set down the cards. Hey" greeted Alice "hey there" said Will making room by moving his bag off the table "I see your hairs dried" "yeah" said Will touching the ends of his hair "i see yours has, hope it wasn't to much of a pain" he said said Will "So do you want to go first or should I" she asked him Will looked at the cards and deciding quickly he looked up "oh can I go first I've kind of wanted to have a go at fortune telling" he said bashfully. Alice smiled, "thats fine with me". Will smirked and layed out the cards, looking threw the book he did as he was told and began Alice's reading. [Erm I have no idea how to do a reading, so is it ok if i kind of just go how I think they do it, sorry by the way, the internet wasn't much help either there is one sight that does it so I'm copying off them so I'm really sorry if I get it wrong] he shuffled the deck and placed nine cards into three groups to show past present and future. as he placed them down he looked at Alice and began the reading. this was harder than it looked.... He looked over for the teacher for help!

Kain groaned, and so did Draco, who had decided to play it safe and partner with Blaize. He didn't want to choose anyone, and he knew that Gryffin would go with Penelope, and that left Desiree, or Kyle. Taking a deep breath, Kain stood up, and walked up to Kyle. He had never really talked to Penelope's cousin, though Kain knew him quite well. Sitting down opposite to the Delani boy, Kain gave him a reassuring smile. "So, do you know how to do this?" He asked, picking up the card deck and flipping through it. "Because I don't." He chuckled softly, and placed the cards back down on the desk.

Alice smiled at Will. the cards were sure tricky but Alice didn't mind Will wanted to go first so she let him.
Will layed them out and looked at them slightly confused, bless he didn't know where to begin then again neither did Alice. She saw him sigh and chuckled softly.
"having a little trouble" she teased gently he smirked back.
"just a tad" he replied jokingly looking over at the teacher for help.
Alice smiled and put up her hand, waiting for the teacher to come over once she did Alice smiled warmly at her and began to explain the problem.
"I'm sorry Proffesor" she said sincerely "but we kinda don't get how to do it" she said slightly timid in case the proffesor told them off

"I have no idea. This whole thing is pointless," Kyle said, slightly annoyed. Not by Kain but by the teacher's reading of his card. He took out his own deck and looked through them. "I'm surprised that you aren't pairing with my dear cousin." Kyle stated, using exaggerating sweetness when he said the word "dear".
He followed the directions that were listed in the book, placing the nine cards into three rows. (OOT: Thats a good way Will and its fine. There's also a way where you place 9 cards on the table in the form of a cross.. either works fine.)

Gryffin had hoped that he'd get Penelope as his partner. After all, if he was going to mess up on this. He'd rather have her to laugh at him instead of anyone else. He stood up from his chair as soon as Professor Nadya had said to get with a partner, and walked over to where she was sitting.
"Would the lady be willing to be my partner?" He asked, a goofy grin on his face. Penelope looked up at him and started giggling.
"Go ahead and have a seat." She said, gesturing for the chair that Alice had vacated. Gryffin sat down and looked over Penelope's shoulder at Kain.
"It would seem that today Kain has a thing for the Delanis. He's paired with Kyle." Gryffin informed.
Penelope didn't look back, she just rolled her eyes at her cousin's name. "Should I do your reading first?" She asked instead.
Kyle shrugged his shoulders. "Whatever makes you happy love." He said. Penelope groaned jokingly at being called that.
