Frankly, Heath was more interested in the reclining chairs than the activity itself. Did Professor Euka bring in special chairs just for this lesson? Did she somehow build a bunch of reclining chairs from scratch? No, more likely she used magic to modify existing chairs. Which spells did she use? To him, that skill seemed a lot more useful than Oneiromancy!
He eyed the potion with ambivalence. Although he didn't know Professor Euka well, so far she hadn't given him any reason not to trust her… unlike the many professors who abandoned him to The Room for months on end. It was his own mind that he didn't trust. More often than not, his dreams were nightmares, the kind that made him wake crying in the middle of the night. Those dreams were hard enough when he was in his dorm, safely hidden from prying eyes and ears by the curtains around his bed and a muffliato charm. Just the thought of having a nightmare like that in a classroom full of people had him on edge!
Heath was getting tired of the adults in this school trying to force him to be vulnerable! At the same time, he didn't want to get into trouble for not participating, so he quickly downed the potion before he could talk himself out of it. Pulling the lever, he positioned the pillow near the top of the reclining chair and curled up, hiding his face in the pillow. In a matter of seconds, he drifted off to sleep.
