He smiled slightly upon hearing her kidding about Hufflepuff and dark wizards. "I think you'll be okay on that front. Do you know what you're planning to do after Hogwarts?"
Launna agreed with him - Azkaban was the worst place she'd ever been to in her life. She'd lost count of how many nightmares she'd had involving the dreaded dementors swooping down on her and sucking out her soul. No one deserves that fate, she thought to herself. 'I've considered being a Healer,' she said in reply to his question. 'Or perhaps an Arithmancer - I'm really interested in the subject.' She reached down and pulled a book from her bag called
'The Numbers behind the Numbers'. 'This is a book I bought today,' she said eagerly, flicking through the pages. She'd already ear-marked several of the pages. 'Arithmancy is the study of divination through numbers. Telling the future, pretty cool huh?’ Launna paused as she considered something. ‘But it can’t be as easy as that, can it?’
