Good Omens...And Bad: Prophecy in Theory and Practice, Lab Three

Friday, September 21, Second Period

Instead of the usual lounge-like arrangement, today the classroom has been set up without any furniture at all. On the floor are numerous large and comfortable looking cushions. Hanging on one wall is an oversized palmistry diagram.

"Good morning, class. Before we begin our lab, I do want to remind you all that your project proposals for this lab section are due by the end of the day today. There is a drop box outside my office door for that purpose. Also, your group project proposals for the regular class are due today as well.

"Now, we're about to begin our first hands-on lab exercise, and so I thought it was fitting that today's lesson be truly, er, 'hands-on'. Find a seat next to your lab partner and make yourself comfortable. Today we will learn the art of chiromancy, or palm reading."

Aziraphale powers the wards on the classroom and then takes a seat on one of the cushions. "You may begin. Let me know if you need any assistance."

Lab Exercise
Using the following information on palmistry, do a reading for your partner.

The Basics of Palmistry

Two Step by Step Guides to Palm Reading

[ooc: Obviously, you can't do an actual reading for the other person. However, if you'd like to RP the lab, one possible solution would be to have your partner answer the questions found on the Step by Step sight, and then create your own interpretation based on that information. Or, make something up. It doesn't have to be accurate, especially for those characters with no actual divination talent.

Note: If your partner doesn't show up or tag in to RP and you'd like to play out the reading, ping me in the OOC and we'll switch people around or you can practice on Aziraphale.]

Joxer looked at Marty's hand and thought, checking back at his notes.

"I see... a damsel in distress," Joxer said.

"Uh-huh," Marty said rolling his eyes. "Sure there is."

"And this line means..." Joxer looked at his notes. "She'll be riding a pale horse."

"Uh huh," Marty said. "Is she naked with long hair covering all the good parts?"

Joxer shrugged. "It's possible. It doesn't say that here, though. But, oh, hey, you're going to live a long and healthy life, too. And you'll have a wife, three kids, and a chicken."

"Is it a muppet chicken or a real chicken?" Marty asked narrowing his eyes.

Joxer looks at Marty's palm, and back at his notes.

"Answer unclear, try again later?"

"My hand is going to be different later?"

"It's possible?" Joxer said. "You might have an accident, or get older and more wrinkles?"

"You're making this up as you go along. Aren't you?"

"About the only thing I can tell is that you wash your hands regularly," Joxer admitted.

"How'd you know about the chicken, though?" Marty asked.

Joxer shrugged. "I just mentioned chicken cause I'm hungry," he said. "You actually have a chicken?"

"Had. A Muppet chicken. She's gone now," Marty said wistfully.

"Well, maybe your future involves getting her back?" Joxer offered. "Maybe she'll be riding that pale horse thing..."

"You never know," Joxer said. "I figure, if they can make machineries that fly? Anything is possible."
