He smiled a bit at what she was thinking about doing. "Well you should do it if you want. I think you'd be a good teacher. You should do what makes you happy." While he was happy not doing anything at all and even preferred that at times.

He watched her curiously and frowned, "Then don't take it." He sighed and turned toward her fully, "Look. Just because your parents don't like how you are doesn't mean it's not right. So you're more outgoing and have a bit of a temper when pushed that's YOU. You could just as easily have been shy and not talked to anyone and they might have thought you depressed when it wasn't true. Don't let someone else tell you how you should be."
As she had with Neptune, she raised her hands in a surrendering motion and shrugged. "Just saying. But, that's fine. We won't talk about it." No harm in trying to explain to him that it wasn't him. It was all her. As usual.

Shrugging AGAIN she smiled at him and said, "Who knows. People may not want a crazy person teaching their kids. Public record that I was in St. Mungo's. I think Sal's parents are going to hold that against me too... Judging me so harshly before they have even met me."

Waving her hands about a bit she meant that clearly that topic was done with. She didn't want to think about it.

"But... what if they're right? What if I am dangerous. Or will become dangerous? My greatest fear is that I will hurt someone... else... or even just pushing everyone away when I get crazy... I don't want to end up alone," she said in a weak little voice as she averted her eyes.

"Sometimes I wonder if I will ever have a normal life." There... she said it again.
