SPOILER!!: Lex

Hayden could understand that, but Lex had to have at least some idea, no matter how tiny, of what she could possibly want to do after she graduated. "Do you have a favorite subject?" Was there something she wanted to study? Was she interested in anything that she might want to make a career out of? There had to be something.

Of course it was magic, but the kind of magic Lex was describing sort of freaked her out. She didn't want anyone or anything, not even a hat, knowing all sorts of things about her that she didn't even know about herself. If she held a conversation with the hat, would it be able to tell her things about her future? That seemed frightening. It seemed like too much power for a hat to have. "Why does a hat know that much?"

"Well there wasn't really a house in mind that I wanted, I would have been fine with whatever house it put me in." She hadn't really understood how the hat worked, and she still didn't, but she had been willing to trust its judgement. "I was kind of thinking I might be a Ravenclaw but I like Hufflepuff and I must fit." Otherwise the hat wouldn't have put her there.

It shouldn't have been so hard to make up her mind yet it was. It was probably all that asking she did. Knowing what others had planned had left her nothing butundecided for herself. Her grandparents weren't making it any easier, either. Ohhh...more of that curiosity stuff when it came to the hat. "I reckon it's magic. The hat knows things about us that sometimes even we don't know." And if she started questioning it then it might ruin the whole illusion so she tended to leave it where it was. "Least, that's what I heard.' A former Gryffindor Prefect told her actually. "Did you want Hufflepuff?"
