"I am Ethan..." he replied to her question. "Nice to meet you, Hannah," the boy gave the Slytherin a polite nod and friendly smile. And, oh... good, she was ready to get to work. Normally, he would have said Ladies first... but as it seemed that many were finishing up and he was already at her desk with her dream book opened... he thought it best to get started with his dream and she could analyze.
Pulling over a nearby empty chair, Ethan sat down and leaned back (he would not be lying on the floor as the professor suggested!). "Would you mind analyzing first?" he asked Hannah and then shut his eyes. Okay... what was a recent dream he had that wasn't too personal? Oh right... "Okay, in my dream I was asked to be a substitute teacher in a Herbology class for very young witches and wizards... I think these kids were seven or eight. Anyway, the other teachers of the school kept checking up on me... like they didn't trust me to do a good job. And I guess I wasn't because a lot of the kids didn't want to listen to me... I don't think we actually did do anything with the plants." Ethan opened one eye to peek at the girl. What would she make of that?
Hannah gave the
boy a rare smile. Well, well, well he did have a name.
"It's nice to meet you as well Ethan." she said all prim and proper. She wanted to ask him more questions but now was not the time. She had to cozy up with a complete stranger and tell them something personal about herself. Fantastic.
Thank goodness that he volunteered to go first.
"No not at all." She smirked at him when he pulled up a chair. Hannah honestly couldn't blame him though. She was sooo not laying on the floor either. She listened intently as he explained his dream. It sounded like he has problems with doubting himself if you asked Hannah, but what did she know? At least it was a normal dream. Hannah could do normal. She jotted down notes all the while.
"Ok so I definitely think the kids is one symbol." Hannah was flipping through her book to try to find out what the whole kid thing meant. Blink.Blink.
"According to this book dreaming of a kid means that you are likely to bring grief to some loving heart." So he was going to be childish and hurt someone innocent? Just like a boy...yup Hannah was jumping to conclusions without knowing him.
