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

[a-phale.livejournal.com]

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.]

"Or you've been talking to Phoebe," Bel accused.

"But saying I'm psychic makes me sound cooler." Blair shrugged. "Wanna talk about it?"

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"What did Phoebe tell you?" Bel asked warily.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"That you two got into a fight about kissing other people and she slapped you." Blair said quietly.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"...something like that," Bel admitted.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Was there something else?" Blair asked.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"She threatened to kiss other people," Bel said sullenly.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Because you were kissing other people?" Blair asked. "Do you think she meant it?"

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

Bel scowled. "She sure sounded like it."

Blair took a sip of tea. "Phoebe and I joked about kissing in Caritas one night, just to make you flail. But we didn't, because Phoebe loves you too much to joke around like that."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

Bel crossed his arms. "So what does make me?"

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Down, Bel. That wasn't supposed to be a slam against you." Blair shook his head. "Surprisingly enough, you aren't as sensitive as Phoebe. Shocker."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"I don't wanna hurt her," Bel said with a sigh. "I didn't do it in purpose."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"I know you didn't, man. But it did, so what are you going to do now?" Blair asked.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"I told her I was sorry," Bel said. "What else can I do?"

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Have you thought about telling her that you're going to stop kissing boys?"

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"It's not like it was dozens of them!" Bel snapped.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Don't yell at me." Blair said calmly. "Numbers don't matter, man."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"So, what, I'm not allowed to joke around?" Bel said grumpily.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Joking around is fine, man. Phoebe helped you make me blush in Sex Ed class so I know she has a sense of humor." Blair smiled. "But maybe kissing is going too far."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

"Fine," Bel sighed. "I won't."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"That's cool." Blair smiled. "Are you going to tell Phoebe that before she leaves?"

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

Bel looked across the room at Phoebe. "Yeah, I should talk to her."

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

"Can I hold your hand first?" Blair bounced.

Re: Participate in the Lab Exercise

[demonbelthazor]

Bel blinked at Blair.
