Bored in Divination

[Devin Smithers]

"Alright." Devin took his hand in her smaller one and held it slightly above the surface of the short round table. After examining his hand for a moment she looked down at her book. "It says here" She poked somewhere near his thumb" that you're going to have lots of luck in your life." she examined a bit longer. "And it says here: You are going to suffer loads of pain. So you're going to be pain... but its going to be lucky...pain." she said very slowly, wondering how strange her words must sound.

The Ravenclaw looked up at him. "Lucky pain. Do you suppose you are to be attacked by a heard of murderous four leaf clovers?" she asked him with a completely straight face. That is, untill she could take it no longer and burst out laughing. Devin quickly bit her lip to stifle the laugh, hoping the teacher hadn't heard her.

ll *glomp tackles krissy* HI!!!!!
Nadia- you are VERY strange
me- AM NOT!!ll

Nadia sighed from her large plush chair in the back. She had just stopped righting notes on what the teacher was saying. When she got her predictions they were usually less deathly but she always modified them so she would get and A even though it felt like cheating. "Palm Reading" Nadia said a little to loud, she meant to say it to her self. She had to have a partner for this, to bad everyone is taken, except for '' Jayneka." Nadia said aloud and she motioned for her to sit next to her.

ll uhhh you must be quite i can not think, ze noise is to much! (KRISSY IT IS MRS. PENN!!!)
*dies of laughter*ll

[Jason Pattew]

Jason struggled to keep his face straight. "Lucky pain... No, I think I would be attacked by a bunch of zombie rabbits' feet. Though then it would be smelly luck." Jason scrunched his nose at the thought of it. "Stampeding rabbits' feet... Ugh..." He pretended to keel over as if sicken by the thought and for some unknown reasons, found a four leafed clover and a rabbit's foot under the table. Bringing it up, he looked at the laughing Devin, astonishment plastered all over his face. "Well, what do you know, a four leafed clover and a rabbit foot." Sniffing the latter tenderly, Jason quickly pulled away. "And it does stink." He dropped it on the table, simultaneously grabbing Devin's palm.

"Okay, let's see if you have any leaves or feet in your luck, eh, Mademoiselle?" Jason prodded his book and stared at Devin's palm. "Let's see, you are going to..." Jason checked his book. "Okay, I do not get this. There is no description matching your palm, wait... " Jason flipped to the next page under 'Specific Cases'. "Oh here it is, you are going to be cursed..." Jason arched an eyebrow. "...by someone you hate, simultenously by someone you care... Cursed by one you hate and one you care... Erm... wait, there's a fine print. I can not read it, if only there is a magnifying glass... Oh here is one! What a lucky day..." Jason picked up the glass and peered through it. "Strange, it says, gotcha...Ouch!!" The book has clamped shut on Jason's nose, only then did he caught sight of his own book under it. "Whoos book ish thish?" Jason gasped, trying to pry the book off his nose... 'Lucky pain indeed...' Jason thought, still fighting with the accursed book.

{{Heh, I thought I might as well let your prediction come true then fall on the ground looking astonished. ^^ *gasp* you are psychic, Devin...}}

[Devin Smithers]

At the mention of zombie rabbit feet Devin screwed up her expression to make it look like she was smelling something fowl. Suddenly something happened that caught her completely off guard. "What?! Who the hell would leave a rabbit foot and a four leaf clover under the table?"

As Jason took her hand to read it, she used her other hand to pick up the rabbit's foot. "Ugh! It does stink. You'd think that something this lucky would smell better."

Devin placed the limb back on the table and watched as Jason looked at her calloused palm. She had never really noticed before just how rough and hard her hands really were. Of course, she knew why, but wondered how she had never seen it until now.

Before Devin could really think about what the book had said when Jason read "Gotcha" the book had slammed shut on his nose. This time Devin couldn't stifle her laughter and simply cracked up. How could she not at the sight of this boy with a book clamped down upon his nose! She almost fell out of her chair, but held on to the edge of the table for support.

"Here. Let me try to get it off." She said between bursts of laughter. Devin stood up and leaned over the table to try to remove the book from the boy's nose. "Wow. This thing is clamped down rather hard." Of course, leave it up to Devin to state the obvious. "Erm...Wait! I have an idea! The Ravenclaw snatched the furry rabbit's foot off the table and stroked the spine of the book with it. It quivered a bit, then fell with a thunk back onto the table. "Ha! I knew it!" she said triumphantly. "It's ticklish!"

//-snicker snicker- Only Devin would think to tickle a book. I could SO see her being physcic... either that or psychotic. One or the other.//

Nadia was in the background watching the whole thing, and every word that was said, but not purposely. She watched as the book slammed on the boys nose. She stifled her laugh, but barely. She opened her book to palms and started glancing through it. As she glanced through the page she realized how lame it was, everything was about death, death and more DEATH. It seemed like according to palm reading no one was going to die old, everyone was going to die tragic deaths. "i wonder how many times the teacher thought she was going to die?" she chuckled as she imagined the teacher fainting because she found out that a stampede of Llamas where going to run over her and she would meet her doom. Laughing to herself she glanced up and then again looked at Devin and Jason.

[Jason Pattew]

Ever wondered how it feels like with a book clamped shut on your nose? Well, Jason knows how its like, and of course, it was not a good experience.

"Woo vin da woorld vould vant to mack a bite-ing boook?" Jason demanded, after the book had been tickled by a rather triumphant looking Devin and, happily, fell off his nose. Rubbing his nose tenderly and wincing, Jason looked up at Devin, his eyes teary from the pain and mumbled. "Fank kew." He stared suspiciously at the now innocent-looking book. Pulling out his wand, he jabbed it carefully, pulling back immediately as it sprang up and make a bite for his wand. "Stoopid book..." Jason muttered, conjuring ropes from thin air to bind it.

[randomness]

Nadai laughed in the back ground. Jason was funny, sometimes, yet other times, he was out in his own world, just like Devon.

ll *stabs post and makes it bleed* icky but i have nothing else to sayll

[Devin Smithers]

Devin looked down at the book curiously for a second, her head cocked to one side. "Thats a good question. Perhaps someone enchanted it." Her gaze moved fro the book to Jason's swelling nose.

"Woah... Your nose looks really red. Here! I think I know a spell that can help!" She pointed her wand at his face. Devin mumbled under her breath and a blast of tan-ish powder shot out of the end of her wand.

"Whoops. Maybe thats a little too much." Jason's face and hair was now covered with a thick layer of powder. Devin couldn't help laughing. It looked like someone had thrown a bag of flour at his face! "Really sorry Jason."

[Jason Pattew]

Jason looked apprehensively at Devin's wand. "Ar yoou shure aaboot thish?" Just as he finished saying that, a WHOOSH, and a lot of tan-ish powder, or that is what Jason thought, and hope shot out of the wand tip. "AC-CHOO!!!" Jason sneezed, a violent sneeze enough to disrupt the what-you-may-call-it ambience of the Divination tower.

Jason scowled slightly and drew his own wand. "Scourgify!" He slurred slightly too much on the 'r', resulting in the cleaning charm to hit his nose as well, leaving it as red and swollen as before. Waving his wand round his nose for no reason actually brought the swelling down a bit, well enough for him to talk decently. "I have read somevhere about a charm for swollen vose...mose...bose...nose, Ah-ha, got it. noses." Jason glared at the bound book, determined that whoever sent this was going to pay...

[Devin Smithers]

"I'm really really sorry about that." Devin said as she watched Jason attempt to clean his face, when really causing more damage. "The swelling seems to be going down a bit, it should look normal soon." At least, she hoped it would.

After a short moment's pause, during which neither of them could find anything to say, Devin spoke up. "I'm surprised that I haven't seen you before. I'm out and about pretty often, so I don't see how I could've missed you." It also struck her as strange that she had never seen him in classes before, for she had several of them with Gryffindors. "You'd think that I would have seen every student at least once." She sighed looking down, there wasn't really much to talk about.

//I apologize for the ickyful post, and how long it took me to post it. School has just decided to take over my life. XD//

[Jason Pattew]

Jason kept awfully silent, though its mainly because talking would make him sound like he has a cold. Devin had started up a conversation again. He thought he might want to just ignore her, but then again, he decided to hear her out. "I am not seen in class merely because I like to sit behind everyone." Jason winced at how odd it sounded. "What I meant is that, I feel uncomfortable that someone, a stranger is staring at the back of my head, possibly thinking of jinxing me." At this, Jason shrugged nonchalantly. "I am paranoid."

[Devin Smithers]

"Well, there is no reason for that now is there? I mean think about it, if someone so much as tried to hex you during class the professor would be eating their flesh faster then you could say hinkypunk." Devin had always felt comfortable in school, it was far better then her own home. At least here she was getting three meals a day, and on top of that they tasted good too!

//Short post! BAGH! Woah... how do you pronounce that? Like bag? Or bah? Or baaccvvveekkgghhwwllttyymm... @.@//

[Jason Pattew]

"Unfortunately, that would still require you to go to the Hospital Wing should the person who got their flesh eaten had managed to hex you before getting eaten." Jason shooked his head slightly, he was repeating himself. "What I mean is, at least from the back of the class, I know what goes on between the students in front, and believe me, that could actually give you a lot of insight on their behaviour. Besides, the professor is less likely to pick you to ask some difficult non-existent question and would only notice you when you raise your hand to answer which will gain house points, not the other way around." Jason panted slightly, that was the longest 'speech' he had made, since a debate on pixies, whether or not they should continue to breed, or werewovles rights, or somthing...

[Devin Smithers]

Devin stared blankly at him. "Uh huh...righto then" she wasn't about to argue with a speech like that. She glanced down at his badge. "So you're in Gryffindor." she said (hello captain obvious) "You seem rather smart to me, I wonder why you weren't put in Ravenclaw. I'm telling you, every time I walk into the common room theres a load of people just sitting and reading!"

You're rambling again said a little voice in the back of her head.
Well, why should I care if I'm rambling? I usually don't in case you've forgotten.

I think you should care.

Well, why?

Because you're talking to someone who's really great, and actually makes SENSE! You don't want to go forever being friendless do you?

No. I suppose I don't.

Then stop rambling!

I already did, I'm not saying anything.

Well, then pay attention to what he's saying.

Oh right.

Devin shook her head a little as she came out of her thoughts and back into the rest of humanity.

[Jason Pattew]

"... said I had bravery." Jason looked at Devin's blank face. It was clear to him she ahd been drifting off, like he does, sometimes. He waited until he saw that familiar twinkle in her eye which annouce her return to the world. Smirking, Jason folded his arms. "Am I boring you, my dear Ravenclaw?" Jason winced slightly at what he said. He just called her dear, oh well, let bygones be bygones he thought, as he composed himself.

And you are sure that can happen? snickered that oh so annoying voice in his head.

Oh crap. I thought you have gone, and had stay gone.

And miss all these fun? Nah, your head is a very nice place to live, well, better that 'dear Ravenclaw's' over there.

What? you have been inside her head?

Well, not exactly, but my friend lives there.

Yeah, like hell I will believe that.

Language, Pattew, and do put some expression on your face, you look as blank as her.

Jason snapped back to reality. he had a nagging suspsicion that the 'little voice' isn't quite as imaginary as everybody say, I mean twice in 15 minutes and to two persons? That is a little more coincidential than normal.
