He nodded. "I can't remember mine right now, either,'' he said as he looked at parchment Kurumi had handed him. He had recalled it briefly when he awoke this morning though.
"Ready?'' the Puff asked when Kurumi had lie down. "Do you remember what you were doing with any of these things?'' he asked as he flipped to the D section of the text. He would start with the door.
"Right,'' Jory began when he found the paragraph on the door's interpretation. "The door represents enemies who you are trying to escape from.'' He looked at the prefect and wondered why anyone would want her as an enemy. Looking back at the text, he asked "Did the door fall of of its hinges when you locked it?''
Kurumi sort of wiggled on the ground as Jory spoke...and she already knew that he wasn't looking at the right bit of the book with the door bit. "
Um...no..." she replied, chewing on her lip nervously. "
I was...holding a key...and I locked the door...it wasn't off its hinges at all..." Her cheeks rose in color quite a bit, but thankfully the darkness of the classroom hid this from him. Hopefully. "
I...didn't walk through it or anything...the first thing I can really recall is just...locking it..."
Cue some more awkward wiggling on the floor by the Gryffindor.
As to what she was doing with the items...that was an entirely different story. She just remembered a room...with a table and two chairs...maybe there had been a bowl of strawberries on the table...

He consulted Kurumi's parchment once again. Strawberry. "Strawberries represent favorable advancement and pleasure,'' the badger read aloud. ''So, you will finally have an object you wanted for while.'' He grinned. "Hope it arrives soon.''
Lollipop was the next symbol on the list. "Uh... lollipop isn't listed in the dictionary,'' he said. So he supposed he would move on to the next symbol.
But before she could respond to Jory with more details he had moved on to interpreting more of the images from her dream. "
There was a bowl of strawberries...I think..." Kurumi also just really liked strawberries, so it really was no wonder that she was dreaming about them. They were one of her favorite things. "
I may have eaten one...or several...but I really don't remember..." It obviously wasn't the most exciting of dreams. As to something she has been wanting for a while... "
There is something that I am waiting for...but I haven't been waiting very long. I have to wait until the beginning of February for it to come really." University results.
No lollipops? "
What about candy? Or sweets?" Because sometimes you had to go the more abstract route with this already abstract subject. "
There was a giant one...sitting across from me at the table...where the strawberries were..."
Had the lollipop eaten a strawberry? Not that having a giant lollipop sitting with you at a table wasn't weird enough on its own.
"
Or...wait...there were strawberries and....strawberry lollipops...I was eating one of those..."
