SPOILER!!: JeSsA

"Okay, good," Abey said, and this time his tone was less exuberant because he wasn't exactly enthusiastic about being terrible at reading and writing and just words in general, but he still expressed it with a small, genuine smile.

And then, PREDICTIONS! Abey pushed the parchment closer to Jessa and had to make a conscious effort actually to not lean in and try to read while she wrote them all down. Instead he waited until she was all done, and grinned as he pulled the parchment BACK to him to see what great things his future apparently had in store for him.

It took him a while.

But, once he had got through them all, he looked at Jessa, beaming. "These are all mega great!" It was true, it was. "I'm gonna use my Seer powers and see what they say about them." Which of course meant that Abey fully knew the likelihood of each of these things and could make an educated guess.

He stared back at the parchment and 'hmmmmm'ed while he woke up his Inner Eye. "I think... Saturday is a HUNDRED percent going to happen... Sunday..." Uhhhh... best to not address that one because Abey's Inner Eye was telling him it wasn't going to happen. "And Friday! ... Fifty-fifty."

There, now they'd BOTH done the prediction parts too. Sort of. A job well done, if you asked Abey.

Jessa was completely nonchalant about the whole thing, hardly able to bring herself to scan the text like she'd promised Abey she would. It's just....why put likely...lies on the parchment? She looked to Emmeline who seemed a little overwhelmed by the volume in this one chapter. "It is a lot, isn't it?" A lot of hooey potentially which was the real shame. Non-fiction was never meant to lead you astray. "There's a chapter summary at the end of each chapter so right...." She reached over, flipping through the girl's text until she came to the end of the chapter, "here. You'll find a summary of everything here." And Abey wasn't kidding about the whole spelling thing. Jessa squinted at the parchment. "It's cool. I know what it all says." Which was the most important thing now. "Your future's really looking up based on all these." The Ravenclaw feigned another look at her own text before nodding. "Yep, I see great things coming up in your future." And so she began to write as if with absolute certainty. "There, see, told you you're future was gonna be good." Because she'd said as much. "Okay, good," Abey said, and this time his tone was less exuberant because he wasn't exactly enthusiastic about being terrible at reading and writing and just words in general, but he still expressed it with a small, genuine smile.
