Did you really put your head inside Dorothy's body?

"Oh," Prefect Ish says. "I had a question before I go, you don't have to answer it if it's too personal."

"Oh?" you say.

"Yes, ah, did you really put your head inside Dorothy's body?" she asks.

Your stiff neck makes it uncomfortable to nod, so you simply speak. "Yes," you say. "Yes, I did."

Ish's face takes on an expression of wonder. "You're amazingly brave," she says.

"Yes," you say. "The nurse told me that, more or less. Or perhaps, it's amazing I'm still alive."

She laughs. "Well, then, maybe Leontes is the right house for you. Brave and strong and fearless."

"I expect I'll get a lecture about discretion being the better part of valor," you say.

"Well, yes," Ish says. "But at least you have the valor part down."

You roll your shoulders. "I'd really like to rest a bit. When is evening mess?"

Ish tells you, and helpfully sets up a magical hourglass which will chime and dissolve twenty minutes before time.

"There you go, now don't be late," she says.

"Thank you," you say.

Ish bustles off, looking over her shoulder before she closes the door. She still has a look of wonderment, maybe admiration.

You suppose you've made quite the first impression, even if you've barely met anyone from your House.

You lie down on the bed, narrow, hard, and just long enough for you to lie upon if you don't stretch out to your full height. Soon, you drift off to sleep.
