A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.

Also it was cheating to look at the clock, heh.

Reaching for one of the sundials, the fifth year continued on to the observatory where she saw a few students huddling here and there. Ignoring them completely, she took a spot where the sunlight was the strongest - well, the strongest in this time of the year, and started unfolding the sundial and 'establishing' it on the narrow table before her.

The Ravenclaw then opened her shoulder bag that was lying nearby, and took her giant Astronomy guide book that she'd borrowed from the library. Flipping through the pages to her bookmark, Louisa stared down at a moving figure. "This is the topview of the Equatorial sundial... " Moving her gaze down to one of the paragraphs, she went on reading loudly, "The hour-lines will be spaced uniformly if the surface receiving the shadow is either perpendicular (as in the equatorial sundial) or circular about the gnomon (as in the armillary sphere)." Hmm... that was... blehh.
After taking a sundial and knocturnal which he called a compass/ruler for himself that stood outside of Roslund's office, Daichi moved up the stairs towards the observation tower. He knew it would be the best place to do this assignment since it was pretty cold outside.

The moment he arrived at the top, he saw a couple of other students looking up at the sky and writing down in their journals. But one Ravenclaw he saw was taking out her sundial and knocturnal thingies and placed them on the table. "Uhm..hey~!" he said the moment he was next to the small table and pointed at the stuff. "Can i..uh.. can i do the homework here too?" Daichi asked, softly biting his lower lip. "I mean with you..i didn't really understand it in class soooo...." he trailed off as he waited for an answer.

As he waited, Daichi observed her cloak and recognized it was the cloak they had worn in class. Looking down, he noticed something was missing. "Heeey!" his voice sounded whiny when he said the word. "No ducky slippers?" he almost pouted as he pointed at her feet.

HMPF! she OBVIOUSLY had NO fashion sense!
