"The dragon la- Lafay seems really scary." she said stopping far to late at saying her nickname, it really was catchy "I'm just hopeing to survive her class, let alone pass it!"

Emily was a little confused. Had he had more than one family? If so, did he want to talk about it? Ah, pressure again!
"Well, my mam was in Ravenclaw and my sister in Gryffindor, so I wasn't really under any pressure for houses..." No, she had to ask him.
Why are you so nosey?!?!

"So you've had different families?" she said, choosing her words carefully "Sorry to be nosey, and you don't have to tell me anything. It's just... if you want to talk, I've been told I'm a great listener!"
She had such big ears as well as a big mouth! Lucky her!
"Although you might be embarressed talking to a first-year. Anyway, just forget I said anything..."
Now she was the embarressed one! What was she thinking? She wasn't, that was the whole point!

Looking for a change of subject she looked around the room.
"Are we even supposed to be in here?" she had just realised she was in a classroom. What floor was she on again?

Ha. Drama.

Drama drama drama. You were never short of it in this place.

When it came to his family, the corners of Jake's mouth twitched into a smile. "It's fine. I wouldn't have mentioned it if it was like, taboo or something," he pointed out, and then looked thoughtful before speaking. "My biological parents were about nineteen when I was born. My dad didn't stick around longer than three weeks, as was his nature, and my mother didn't really like me. I was a reminder of the life she couldn't have. I left her house when I was ten, and after my first year I lived with my dad for a few weeks. But he... had loads more kids. Couldn't deal with me."

Remembering what came next, Jake smiled oddly. "I was in a lot of foster families, and finally I was placed with someone who I liked. She got married and they adopted me. They actually used to teach here."

So yeah... that was about it. "They divorced recently, though."

Jake wasn't good at realising when he was bringing the mood down.

The room? Oh. "Well, the door was open. I'm sure Truebridge wouldn't leave it open if it wasn't meant to be used."
