"Oh you'd make a great teacher!" Emily smiled at him "And what's WADA? I don't know much about other wizarding schools"
Her family tree barley left England. She would love to explore the world! Mabye that's why she was so interested in Dragons?

"Yeah, the teachers seem great! And really helpful and fun... well most of them..." she had a feeling Jake would know what teacher she was talking about. Everyone seemed too.
"And I'm a first year gryffindor..." she had felt a need to say her house "And I know I'm a first year, so I still have loads to learn, but my mam and sister were both super talented witches, so I feel like there's a lot of pressure on me to be great at everything! That's why I read so much..."

Great, she had gone back to being nervous as she had started rambling and telling this poor boy her life story. She was great at first impressions!

"It depends on what Truebridge decides, to be honest. We'll be learning anything in the book, I guess," Jake shrugged. If he knew what they'd be learning, he'd have it all learnt already, in advance.

"WADA stands for Wizarding Academy of Dramatic Arts. My father went there, and I think Truebridge there. Either way, kids gotta learn the regular things as well as the arts in that place," Jake smiled wryly. He had in fact wanted to attend that school for his last year... but came back to Hogwarts for some bizarre reason. So now he was having to practice his music every evening, singing when nobody was around.

He listened when she spoke, which was more than could be said about other people in conversations. Giving an understanding nod, Jake went on. "Lafay? She hates me. Honestly, I know what you mean about not everyone being understanding. A lot of them, though... yeah. They're awesome."

Jake smiled again as he flipped through the textbook just to peruse. "Oh, I know about pressure. My original family, they were Slytherins and my first father wasn't in my life, so I had this pressure to get into Slytherin. I thought I was going to burst into tears when I made it to Hufflepuff. But I got a new, much more supportive family. Honestly, pressures about school are stupid. As long as you are the best that YOU can be, things will turn out great for you."

He'd probably confused her with talk of his families and stuff like that, but he didn't really notice. It made sense to him, so of course he wouldn't think about how it appeared to someone. Plus, the way things were going, he was probably going to get an even more messed up family now.

Ugh.
