Good Omens...And Bad: Prophecy in Theory and Practice: Lab Twelve - Period 2

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Wilson had carefully dethawed and in some instances reheated the baked goodies that Phale had made and left for his Prophecy class. Schleping them up to the school, the young doctor headed into the class room and supressed a sigh at the homey configuration that reminded him of it's missing professor.

Setting up the baked nummies along with a group of hot beverages ranging from cider to cocoa, Wilson got himself some hot cider and a few gingersnap cookies and then settled down in an armchair to wait for the students to arrive.

When everyone was settled and in their seats, Wilson stood up, carefully took roll then set his cider aside for a moment.

"Good morning. As I'm sure you are all aware, Professor Aziraphale has had to leave us for a bit and I am helping his TAs cover his classes. Aziraphale left behind handouts for today's lab exercises and if you have any questions about the material, please speak with Miss Halliwell or Miss Belacqua. I will also be here if you have any general questions or concerns. Also, I wanted to let you all know that I am looking forward to today's performance. I have a video camera and will be taping it for Aziraphale to enjoy if when he returns."

Giving the class a reassuring smile, Wilson walked to where the handouts were sitting on the desk and began to pass them out to the class.



LAB TWELVE (FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, SECOND PERIOD)

LECTURE: Onomancy (also sometimes referred to as onomamancy)is the process of divination through one’s name. This style is more frequently seen in China and Japan, where the characters used to spell a name also hold other meanings. It can, however, be done using the traditional meanings of Western names as well.
Onomancy Handout

Graphology, or handwriting analysis, also has a parallel in the
scientific world. The difference is that while the science of analyzing handwriting is done to produce an understanding of the writer’s personality, the divinatory skill is used to produce a prediction for the writer.
Graphology Handout

LAB EXERCISE: Using your handouts, do a name or handwriting divination for yourself or for your lab partner.

[NOTE: This graphology link is available if you want to do a “real” handwriting analysis. This onomancy link
will do name analysis for you.]

Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

He's sitting quietly in an arm chair, watching the fish.

Blair walked over after his lab exercise and sat down carefully next to Dr. Wilson. "Hey, man. How're you doing?"

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Looking over from his study of the fish, Wilson smiled at Blair.

"Good morning, Blair. I'm all right, how are you this morning?"

Re: Talk to Wilson

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"Okay." Blair shifted a little in his chair. "No hangover tea needed this morning?"

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Shifting a little to get a better look at Blair, Wilson soon felt his face morph into his patented 'stop shitting me' expression and he cocked a knowing eyebrow at Blair.

"No, no hangover tea this morning...is something wrong with your chair, Blair?"

Re: Talk to Wilson

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"No?" Blair looked at the chair for a minute and then realized what he was doing. He quickly shifted again and blushed. "Uh...just a little sore...in places."

If he had thought that statement through, it probably wouldn't have been his first choice of ways to phrase his problem.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Probably not but as it was Wilson's eyebrows climbed up into his hairline.

"I thought...err...that you and River were..." Wilson made a bit of a handgesture here. "Working things out."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

"We are." Blair stared at the handgesture for a long moment trying to figure how what dancing bunnies had to do with anything. "Last night was an accident. No worries, though. I slept with an icepack on and it's not nearly as red anymore."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Red?

Wilson frowned a little bit, either it had been dangerously rough or ignorance might have played a factor and actually, the young doctor was worried more about the latter than the former.

"You two should be more careful, Blair. Tell me you at least remembered to protect yourself?"

Lana stopped by after class, but before she head off to work. She looked much brighter than she had on Wednesday, but still a little wary. "Good morning, Dr. Wilson."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Looking up from where he was sprawled in the arm chair, Wilson smiled brightly as he saw Lana and definitely looking much more bouncy than she had on Wednesday.

"Good morning, Lana." He said.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"I... didn't realize Mr. Phale had gone when I saw you on Wednesday," she said quietly. "I'm sorry. I'm sure he'll be back soon."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Wilson smiled a little ruefully and admitted. "I hope."

Then he sat forward and waved Lana towards a chair next to his.

"How are you feeling?" It was a relaxed question, no pressure simply one of genuine concern for her well being.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Good. Tired. Hopeful." Lana smiled. "Clark may have found a way to help his mother, so the Martha Kent from my timeline is here. So hopeful. And in general, good. But still a little tired and stressed from everything that's been going on."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

"Really?" Wilson said and if he seemed to be sitting a bit stiller than he was a moment ago, perhaps it was just a trick of the light.

"Well, that sounds promising, Lana." He smiled.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

She hesitated, not sure if she'd seen something or not. "Well... it's worth a try anyway, right?" she asked cautiously.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

"Always." Wilson agreed with a reassuring nod. "It's always worth a try."

Pippi sneaks up on Wilson and hugs him.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Wilson chuckled softly and returned the hug with a soft spoken. "Thank you, Pippi."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"How are you today?"

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

"Not hungover." Wilson said this with a hint of pride. "Which is a good thing. Are you ready for the pagent?"

Re: Talk to Wilson

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Oh yes. It's going to be great fun!" Pippi nodded. "We're also doing Plum Fairies for the Dance class."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

"I will definitely have to get that on tape for Aziraphale." Wilson exclaimed, chuckling softly.

Re: Talk to Wilson

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"We're gonna have a party in the 1st floor of the Dorms, Nadia and me. In the lobby. You should come."

Re: Talk to Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

"I have a little errand I have to run, after the pagent and I'll have to see how that goes but thank you, Pippi, I'd like to stop by." He said with a warm twinkle in his dark eyes.
