Good Omens...And Bad: Prophecy in Theory and Practice, Class Seven
Monday, October 16, First Period
In addition to the usual comfy chairs and breakfast spread, there are several stacks of books scattered about the room.
"Good morning. Today we're going to do something a little different. I know that lately, you've had to deal with some rather difficult topics in this class. Prophecy isn't an easy subject, and that's especially true for those of you who've already had first-hand experience with it. So today, I want you to take some time to decompress. Work with your project group if you like, catch up on some reading-" He nodded toward the books. "Or just talk quietly with your friends. I'll be here all period for anything that you'd like to discuss with me, any questions you might have about the class, or anything else. There are handouts for you that cover the class topics for today. Those of you enrolled in the lab will find some of this material familiar, but there's more in-depth information here for you.
Also, I'll need to speak with Miss Belacqua, Miss Brown, and Miss Nitt before the end of class today."
Handouts:
Chieromancy #1
Chieromancy #2
Chrystallomancy #1
Chrystallomancy #2
Chrystallomancy #3
Cartomancy #1
Cartomancy #2
Astrology/Astromancy
Homework: Look up the astrological chart for your date of birth. Write out a simple description of what it says about your personality, and note any differences of opinion between your own perception of yourself and what the chart says." [ooc: You only need to enter information for date/time/place to get a reading. Make up something for the time unless your canon is OCD enough to provide it for you.]
A Note on Group Projects: The first stage of class projects is due November 13. Remember, this is the part where you write your own prophecy. Once the projects are turned in, I will assign them to another group to be interpreted.

Re: Talk to the Professor
because my mun can't remember if you mentioned it IC beforeheand."Re: Talk to the Professor
"I don't actually have one, sir," she nearly whispered. "I was wondering if you would help me with it, though. I fell asleep the night after Homecoming, and woke up this morning. I think something might be wrong with me."
[ooc: I mentioned it in passing ooc, but not ic.]
Re: Talk to the Professor
"Yes, of course, my dear. Although...if you think you might be ill, I'd suggest stopping by the clinic. The doctors here in Fandom are quite skilled. On the other hand, if you think the problem is something more...esoteric..." He patted Lyra's hand. "I'll do what I can to help."
Re: Talk to the Professor
"It's happened once before. I was asleep for months, then. I never did find out what happened, but Mrs... my mother looked after me, that time. It's the only really kind thing I can remember her doing for me."
