"I'm really not sure but I wouldn't have expected Slytherin, then again most people say the very same thing about me." She had lost count years ago on how many times she had been told this very same thing.
"That's good." No injuries were always good. No need to get the healer. The mention of the moving staircase had Hady nodding her head in agreement. "Sometimes I really think so as well and we're not the only ones." Those stairs tripped people up all the time and a few terms ago when they had gone haywire several people and a professor if she recalled the memory right were injured. Laurel seemed to understand her reasoning for dropping the class and didn't appear all to disappointed. This was a major relief to the teen as it had been hard enough for her to drop the lessons let alone think about the professors feelings at her doing so. "I have thank you. It wasn't easy doing so as I was so used to taking them all but it's much easier on me now." Her health that is. "I plan on becoming a Creature Healer." So every single lesson and or program that could push her a little closer to that goal was going to be taken.
Laurel was pretty curious to hear what house Hadleigh thought she had belong to in her Hogwarts school days but she got no answer. Instead she had to settle for something cryptic about both of them being sorted into an unexpected house. Tagging on to that train of thought Laurel asked
"Why would they have said that about you too? You belong in Slytherin since the hat sorted you there just like he did me. Does it bother you that your peers think you should have been sorted into another house?" For a growing girl it could be a pretty big thing for her self esteem and identity building. It had been for her.
Smiling she said
"Just remember to always be alert when you are walking on the moving staircase then you'll be fine." Unless lady luck was taking a break and you slipped or got caught on the stair when it decided to move. That was up to chance but you could always be alert.
Nodding Laurel responded.
"I'm so glad to hear that dropping a few courses has made it easier for you, and it also frees up more time for you to really focus more in-depth on the subjects you require good grades in as a step in your dream to become a creature healer doesn't it?" She didn't poke her nose in further as to what had brought on the need for Hadleigh to lighten her class load. It was the younger woman's buisness but she had a guess.
"Why would you like healer to become a healer of creatures?" Laurel wondered. Out of all the jobs out there, why healer?
