xxxASTRONOMY ~ Txxx
- ■ Dominik had trouble focusing during astronomy class - she would look up to the stars, and wonder if Deepak was looking at the same stars as her. Was Erin, her pnpal, looking at the same stars. Were the stars in the sky now the same stars that watched Deepak be taken away from her? Every time she was in Astronomy course, this is where her mind went - and as such, she failed. Awfully.
xxxCHARMS ~ Axxx
- ■ Dominik got halfway through her written exam, when she saw the question about the cheering charm. Could she cast that on herself, make herself happy, without her brother? After not answering many questions on the written portion, she did wonderfully on her practical exam, of course she could use the levitating spell, it was easy if you were focused.
xxxDEFENSE AGAINST THE DARK ARTS ~ Oxxx
- ■ Dominik had to protect her family, her friends, herself. So she threw her studies into DADA. Some lady had taken Deepak using the dark arts, and Dominik wouldn’t let anything liek that happen again - she would be able to defend to the best of her ability. Her boggart was her worst nightmare, but she had lived through it over and over again - the lady who had taken her brother coming back, hurting her family. She cast ridiculous, her worst nightmare lady turned into Aidene, their neighbor who was running toward Dominik, pretending she would eat her. A good memory. A happy one.
xxxHERBOLOGY ~ EExxx
- ■ Plants are friends - not food. Okay they were also fod. But herbology plants you probably didn’t want to eat as food. Overall, Dominik breezed through the exams, but missed a few after taking a lucky guess at the answers (how was she supposed to remember the answers to EVERYTHING they’ved studied in the past years). xx
xxxHISTORY OF MAGIC ~ Dxxx
- ■ There was only one event in the past that mattered - Deepak being taken from her. Who needed to know who Nicholas Flamel was? Who needed to know Deathly Hallows (okay well. She knew THAT one since she grew up in Godrics Hollow). And a written portion for the practical? Who had time or effort for that - not Dominik. She sat during her practical and drew flowers along her entire parchment.
xxxPOTIONS ~ EExxx
- ■ Dominik was patient, so she was pretty good at potions and just waiting until just the right moment to do what needed to be done. Her real downfall, she was get distracted sometimes, grab the wrong ingredient. Thankfully, it wasn’t detrimental to the potion, just a little inconvenient.
xxxTRANSFIGURATION ~ Dxxx
- ■ Dminik never liked transfiguration - turning something into something it wasn’t, it was all a bunch of lies. A teacup should only be cup material, not a rat. And you shouldn’t just make things disappear - it wasn’t right to make something just vanish into the unknown location. xx

xxxART ~ EExxx
- ■ Art was fun, entertaining, relaxing. Sure she had to share the class with some wellbeloves, but overall it was a good class. She learned a lot of terms, but struggled a little with animating her art, a picture of deepak. He smiled, but wouldn’t wave.
xxxDIVINATION ~ EExxx
- ■ The third course Dominik put extra studies in - because she wanted to be able to tell the future, see what laid in wait for her, for her family. It helped that some questions were just silly, and it made it easy to answer one way or the other. She probably would have done better, but she started bawling in the middle of her crystal ball reading, when she saw herself embracing a boy - she was probably just making it up.
xxxGHOUL AND GHOST STUDIES ~ Oxxx
- ■ While Dominik was convinced she would find Deepak again one day, she was going to prepare for finding him as a ghost. So she spent extra care in her Ghoul and Ghost studies, being sure she knew what to do in any situation.
xxxHEALING ~ Txxx
- ■ Dominik wasn’t bad at diagnosing what was wrong, but when it went to actually heal something she began to panic, what if she did something wrong and she made the situation worse. What if she gave the wrong potion? As her mind went through what ifs, she never got past the first question, or the healing practical. The stress of the exam had put her in a different mindset, where when in a reasonably calm classroom situation she had done amazingly. xx
xxxMYTHOLOGY ~ Dxxx
- ■ Dominik grumbled - another written practical exam? It was stupid. She doodle a snake on her exam instead. Overall, getting her a dreadful after she carelessly went through the written written portion.
xxxWANDLESS ~ Axxx
- ■ Dominik had to be semi-efficient in wandless. She didn’t have a natural talent for it, but she could perform a decent Accio, she would be able to summon her wand back to her at the minimum. She couldn’t cast the other spells, probably because incendio reminded her of her childhood, and protego was...hard?xx
