Zeke couldn't disagree with Blaise more. "You're joking, right?" he started, disbelief on his tone. "Bigger doesn't mean better, if the number of your weight is bigger, you're fat... if your essay has a bigger word limit, it's more work... detention hours, reading requirements... bigger, is not better." Ergo, he wasn't looking forward to whatever 57 had in store for him. They could trade sticks, if it would make the boy feel better, he'd have no qualms about it.


But alas, it was interpretation time!

Zeke accepted the sheet of paper that zoomed their way. It was more convenient than working from his textbook at the minute, though he would definitely be reviewing it later, and interrogating his reading, and other readings... there was nothing stopping him from doing more.

"Hey look," he said as he moved the paper between them, his finger poised partway down the list at number 20. "Trust yourself! Your own ability will be your strongest asset... see? You'll be alright." Confidence, the kid needed it.


....Why would he be joking about something so serious? Blaise blinked a few times, not really seeing where Zeke was going until he started listing a whole bunch of things that were bad in larger quantities. He wasn't exactly Mr. Bright Side, was he?

"Well yeah...." The little boy conceded, glancing over to get a look at the number meanings. "But if you have a bigger number of galleons you're rich, if you have more fans you're popular and if you have bigger muscles, you're stronger." Consequently, there was nothing Zeke could do to convince the boy that bigger was not better. He didn't mind word limits on his essays. Truth be told, his quill did most of the writing anyway unless the workload was manageable enough for him.

But anyway, his future was being revealed and the boy could only lean in closer. All he had to do was trust himself? That was all the advice the bloody piece of stick could offer? OF COURSE he trusted himself, it was that shoddy wand of his that gave him cause for concern! How was no one getting this? He bet he'd be a zillion times better at magic if his mum would humour him with a new wand.

MOVING ON. Blaise's eyes trailed further down the page until he found the next number in question. "Yours says 'you will settle on a plan that will prove to be advantageous to you'....so I guess if you settle on Curse Breaking it'll....be a good thing?" Which was a more definitive answer than 'trust yourself'.

He couldn't even.
