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

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.]

[ooc: OCDs for Prophecy Class are on the way up. Class is in session, have at!]

"Not all of them, man." Blair shook his head. "But the ones who matter will believe you."

"I hope so," Bel said. "I'm a hell of a lot easier for them to take out now than I was before."

"That's got to be scary." Blair said sadly. "But I don't think anyone is going to try and take out another student."

"Except for maybe Marty. He so deserves to be kicked out for this."
demonbelthazor: (Looking up)

"Maybe," Bel agreed wearily. "Wish I knew what he was going to do next."

"Why'd he do this?" Blair asked. "How'd he know about the witch?"

"I don't know," Bel said. "He must've been there, somehow, and seen it. He had a picture of me."

"So he's stalking you? That's sorta freaky." Blair frowned.

"Yeah, I guess so," Bel said, frowning and looking around the classroom.

Blair looked around too, as if he expected Marty to pop out from under a cushion.

"He could be hiding anywhere," Bel sighed. "He's good like that."
