Shrugging to himself, he could definitely understand that.
"Okay... so I guess key points are swimming, water, alone, night, moon, stars, contentment..." He certainly wasn't going to look all of those up, just three as was required. But he wasn't sure what the crazy book would have. He wasn't about to do extra work.
"Yeah.. right," he said with a chuckle as he rolled his eyes at the book. "Hopefully it's not 'Stay out of dark shadows unless you want to get eaten by a dragon.'" But he wouldn't be surprised... this book was proving to be absurd. Looking for 'swimming' or 'water', Ethan flipped through the pages of the book. Found it! "It says if you dream of swimming, then you will be successful." Well, that was pretty generic... Successful in what, exactly? "That's pretty good though, right? Even if it's fairly vague..." Ethan shot her a grin as he suppressed a chuckle. If one bought into this nonsense... who didn't want to be successful?
Hannah was glad that he didn't push about the dream. She was sure that he didn't believe that was all and he would be right in thinking that, but she gave enough that they would be able to complete the assignment and go on with their lives and that was all that was required of her.
"You're on the ball." Not a question just merely a statement. He was most likely just as ready as she was to be done with the whole thing.
"Seriously." she said with a laugh about the dragon...with that book anything is possible. She watched as he looked up the meaning. Successful? Well at least it wasn't doom and gloom.
"I was expecting it to say that I like to swim." Considering everything is doom and gloom or captain obvious.
"I am successful in life." she said as she flipped her hair back and puffed out her chest. No but she really was. She shot him a look and followed it up with a smile.
"Maybe the next one will be doom and gloom."
