[Well, nice to see that some people have good taste in movies. Once everybody got through with the introductions, York straightened up a bit, starting to get into a teaching mode.]
So, like I said, this is my first year here as a counselor, which means that my methods might be a bit unorthodox compared to however your other Precognition mentors went by it. While I've had enough practice and experience to pull visions out of essentially nothing, I find it much, much easier when starting out to have a focus of some kind.

Now, since this might be new to you, I do have a set of crystals for you all to use for the time being, but once you leave this classroom, I'd like you to find your own personal focus for next time. [And with that, he pulls out a drawer in his desk, taking out a small plastic container with a few softball-sized crystal balls that may have seen better days, considering the way they're scuffed up and cloudy.
