The Inner Eye
Characters: Professor Trelawney (npc) and Lavender Brown
Setting: Hogwarts Castle, Trelawney's office in the North Tower, Monday after classes (around 4 maybe?)
Summary: Lavender stops by to talk to Professor Trelawney
Rating: Work safe

Some people were still iffy about Divination, and about whether Sybill Trelawney was legitimate or not. She'd had a very sparse history of true prophecies, but her day to day foretellings were quite convincing to some, but easily refuted by others. However, she'd know she was going to have a visitor today, one that would require special consideration. A former student, which meant she'd be likely escorted into to castle before she arrived at Trelawney's office.

Sybill sat on an iridescent purple pouf after setting a pot of hot water to boil for tea. Her guest should be arriving any moment now, she was absolutely certain. She had a general sense of foreboding, but that wasn't unusual for her. In fact, lately that sense had been growing stronger and she saw death frequently, something reflected in the series of murders happening outside of the school. She did expect this upcoming meeting to be positive, but then, meetings with Trelawney rarely were.

Trelawney looked as though she were fighting to see more but her shoulder sagged and she shook her head, pulling back from the crystal ball. "The future's grown cloudy once more and I cannot pierce it now." She looked up and saw the expression on Lavender's face. She reached across and rested her hand on hers. "Perhaps, if you feel there's something to atone for, you should think about what you've done that could possibly require atoning. Once you've figured that out, well the next step should be clearer."

Trelawney offered what she hoped was a comforting smile. "I'll keep looking. If I See anything else, I'll owl you."

Atone? The only thing she could think of that marked her was not something she could fix or make better. Lavender pressed her eyes closed, feeling desperate and not any less loss than she had been before. Maybe someone else could help figure this out, only it would have to be someone who didn't immediately write off Divination, which already put her at something of a disadvantage.

Lavender twisted her hand to squeeze Professor Trelawney's, needing some sort of physical connection to bring her back. If it was written, then it was written. She couldn't fault the professor for not being able to see anything else, although she wanted to. She simply reminded herself that Professor Trelawney had saved her once and would do what she could to make sure she stayed alive. "Thank you," she said trying to sound more steady than she was. "Please do keep me informed if you See anything else."

"Of course dear," Trelawney replied, her voice full of sympathy and concern. Neither were faked; she was very concerned about Lavender's probably fate, and worried for her. "Have a cup of chamomile before bed tonight; don't bother reading the leaves. they'll only upset you. If you have any potions to help you sleep, you ought to take one," she offered.

She stood, again wishing she and Lavender had seen each other under better circumstances.
