The placement of the characters on the love seat and the professor's relaxed attire represents dramatic irony and the characters' uncertainty about future events. B. The description of the time as "H-Hour" and the general "shepherding" in the professor reveals the seriousness of the impending situation. C. The contradiction between the general's seriousness and the professor's indifference show how Professor Barnhouse is a static character in the story. D. The professor's casual attire and the characters sitting on a love seat just before the critical "H-hour" creates an ironic contrast and a playful mood.
