Hanna listened to the following question, and the responses to why it was good to know the rational thought number and its description. She sat and listened, not having many other suggestions that hadn't already been said. She was then listening to Professor Davis explain their next activity, and her head snapped up towards him when he mentioned an undesirable witch or wizard taking over the school. Such as Dolores Umbridge. Yes, Hanna had read all about that woman. The similarities from her and their current Headmaster, not to mention all the other men, had stuck out to her a while ago. But now Professor Davis was making a comment about it. Was he, too, wishing for something to happen?

Deciding that wasn't a thought that needed to be unpacked during this lesson, she went about starting the activity. The box she opened up came out with was D; Hermione Jean Granger September 19, 1979, and Remus John Lupin March 10th, 1960. Unrolling another piece of parchment, she wrote their names and birthdays to get started.

Quote:

d)Hermione Jean Granger September 19, 1979
8 + 5 + 9 + 4 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 5 = 51.
5 + 1 = 6.
6 + 1 + 9 = 16
1 + 6 = 7

Hermione's rational thought number is 7

d)Remus John Lupin March 10th, 1960
9 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 1 = 22
2 + 2 = 4
4 + 1 + 0 = 5

Remus' rational thought number is 5

After thinking about it, and knowing that her original rational thought number of 4 was not a true representation of her at all, Hanna decided to go with number 22 instead. She referred back to her original piece of parchment, and looked up both of the other rational thought numbers

SPOILER!!: textbook

Writing on the same piece of parchment that she did her calculations for Hermione and Remus, Hanna set about writing dot points in favour of having them work with her, and the students, in the battle of overcoming the enemy.

The answer is to remove them - and Hermione would be sure to look into it from all angles until she was sure there was a way that covered all of the smaller aspects.
Without hesitation would be very important. I think I would hesitate a lot because I'd be scared of getting in trouble. But with Hermione, maybe she wouldn't let me, or any of us, hesitate. Once we decided on it, she would set about solving it without hesitating.
Recognising that there was a problem would be in Hermione's favour because I'm sure there would be many people that didn't believe us about it being a problem we couldn't just deal with. She perhaps wouldn't just see the troublesome Wizard as just that, but perhaps she'd see all of the things about them that was dangerous.
Shortcuts might sometimes mean mistakes, and if we were banding together to get rid of a troublesome Wizard I don't think taking shortcuts is something we could afford to do. Hermione would hold everyone accountable to the task and ensure it was done effectively and with good quality.

In favour of Remus:

Flexible and adaptable mind would come in handy because Remus' thoughts and solutions wouldn't be set in stone. And who knows what unanticipated movements the enemy might make?
This goes close to being quick with solutions, and thinking on his feet. I think if the troublesome Wizard was very skilled in a certain area, and had acted in a way we hadn't foreseen, being quick with a solution and thinking quickly would be a huge benefit.
If it DID go pear shape, Remus might be able to talk us all out of trouble by his cunning fox-like thought processing. Maybe not being right isn't an issue when it comes to this. Winning is all that matters. The troublesome Wizard MIGHT have had out best interests at heart, but we don't care if he does or doesn't. He's trouble and he needs to get out. Remus would push for victory.
Being able to reinvent the wheel, and having no fear of trying very far-fetched methods has its benefits and problems. Benefits would definitely work with being quick on his feet with solutions, because he might be able to try different methods of attack that nobody else could have possibly thought of, if we all thought on a more predicable way. But it's risky. Although he is cunning, so I'm sure we wouldn't think that it was risky, even if he lost. He would talk his way out of it, winning rather than being right.
The key with all of the above is that he could turn a difficult situation around to make it work in his, which would be our, favour. That is what we need.

She thought long and hard, comparing her rational thought number description to that of Hermione's and Remus', before deciding.

I think that would work very well with Hermione, because she would want to understand each step very clearly until it made complete sense to her. I think Remus, on the other hand, is a bit more flexible and the way he works is not the same as myself. I think Remus and I might compliment each other, but Hermione and I would work better together.

She referred back to her original piece of parchment, and looked up both of the other rational thought numbers SPOILER!!: textbook Hanna's TWENTY-TWO (22/4): A combination of vision and system gives your Rational Thought number the most potential for success. You can switch quickly from the larger picture to any minute detail that requires your attention at that time. You dream big, and you have the capacity to lay a foundation for your dream that gives clear directions for each step, each little detail, that needs to be take care of. This reveals a strong intuitive side in you. Premonitions and an intuitive assessment of future effects are strong aspects that can be used and strengthened. Hermione's SEVEN (7): You are never satisfied with a simple answer. You tend to delve into all the aspects of a question until you feel you understand the problem completely. Then you proceed to solve it with clarity and without hesitation. Few people are able to compete with you when it comes to finding answers. You recognize the underlying factors in a problem situation before anyone else, and you are often able to analyze them in a unique and insightful way. You are a perfectionist and quickly frustrated when you work with people who like to take short-cuts. You appreciate quality more than quantity in any situation. Remus' FIVE (5): You have a flexible and adaptable mind. You are quick with solutions, and you can think on your feet. You have the cunning of a fox. You can talk yourself out of the tightest situations, but your priority is often winning the contest, not being right. You love to reinvent the wheel. You have no fear of trying an approach that seems far-fetched to others. Your adaptability is unique and you often manage to turn a difficult situation around to make it work in your favor.
