"Dad died when I was very young, I don't even remember him, but losing mum was hard." He only hoped he'd seen enough of death in his lifetime, he didn't much fancy witnessing more.

But then it was her turn, and already he felt a little lighter knowing that whatever she had to share couldn't be much worse... though, it wasn't good. Zeke nodded his understanding of her struggles, it was something he could empathise with. "I'm sorry you had to go through that," he started, sincerely, "some kids can be downright nasty." And WHAT they did to Janelle, he didn't know, and nor did he care to find out, that was incredibly personal.

Looking down at his flash-card, he noticed that question one had disappeared, huh... they were making progress. But then... no... gosh... impersonate a celebrity or Professor? He didn't do celebrities, and Sabel was difficult to impersonate, really... so it left him with one clear option. His own Head of House.

"Let's see if you can guess who I am, shall we?" he mused, slipping the flash-card into his pocket.

Bracing himself for a moment, Zeke then straightened his back, modelled something of a victory pose, with his face turned upward... why? he didn't know, it was just a thing he figured was appropriate. But then the magic had to happen.

"OH SWEET SOLSTICE! Don't call me Professor! It's ADMIRAL now!"

And here he did something of a jump like he was hopping onto a flying carpet, arms wide to keep his balance. Hopefully he resembled Flamsteed in class, what with the man's habit of jumping onto desks.


Janelle listened as Zeke explained how he had lost his parents. Janelle could not imagine life without her parents. Zeke seemed like a nice boy. She imagined that he had a good adoptive family.......at least she hoped that was the case. Then Janelle's curiosity got the best of her. She had a question that she had to ask. "Do you have any brothers and sisters?" Next to her parents, her siblings were the most important people in her life. She wondered if Zeke had any other members of his family.

Zeke seemed sympathetic as Janelle talked about her bullying experience. She appreciated that. It made the conversation that much easier. "Yeah, kids can be mean sometimes. You know what though? I think that I'm a better person because of that experience. I learned a lot about myself. I'm stronger than I thought I was."

It was time to move on to the next question. When Zeke began his impersonation of a professor, Janelle began to laugh. Of course she knew who he was. "You do a pretty good impression of Professor Flamsteed. The Sweet Solstice gave it away. I think your performance was Stellar!"

Thinking for a moment, Janelle had an idea. "OK, it's my turn now. You get to guess who I am." Janelle put on her perkiest, most cheerful face and gave it a go. "Hello class. I think you all look totes adorbs today. First I'm going to read your proud moments from the Snap Cup." Pretending to reach into her imaginary cup, Janelle looked at her hand and began to read the imaginary note. Oh, I got my own proud moment. I'm proud that I look awesome in pink today. Snaps for me!" Waving her hand dramatically, Janelle snapped her fingers several times and gave Zeke an enormous smile. How could he not guess this one correctly?
