IN WHICH, a girl hiding her insecurities with a mask becomes a witch...
you sit idly at a round table with a crimson sheet draped over it along with ron and harry, hermione apparently hadn't arrived yet, making you mildly confused. she was always in class early so to see her not here was different. you didn't care much that she wasn't, it was just unusual.
in the room was many of the same tables, on the tables were your books and a teacup and plate each.
crimson curtains were draped all over the classroom as everyone was sitting on thick cushions.
"in this room, you shall explore the noble art of divination"
the teacher looked like a loonie, her hair was frizzy and the top was held back by a patterned headband. she had black, big rimmed glasses on, making her eyes look twice the size.
"in this room, you shall discover if you possess the sight" she stands up from her same-coloured crimson arm chair, nearly knocking over the coffee table sat in front of her, causing a few people to snigger around the room.
you scrunch your face up at her.
"hello. i am professor trelawney" she dawdles on, smiling at everyone.
"together we shall cast ourselves into the future" she shakes her hands with a wide grin, probably trying to spread enthusiasm, which was miserably failing.
doubtful
"this term, which we'll be focusing on tasseomancy, which is the art of reading tea leaves. so please, take the cup of the person sitting opposite to you" she says quickly.
you all glance at each other, you begrudgingly take ron's cup, ron takes harry's and harry takes yours.
you peer inside ron's cup, "what do you see? the truth lies buried like a sentence deep within a book, waiting to be read" she steps up to seamus, touching his shoulder and then his head, "but first, you must broaden your minds" she shakes both of her hands on his head, you look at her weirdly.
"first, you must look beyond" she waves her arm out.
"what a load of rubbish"
you blink, looking to the side where hermione was now seated.
