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!


Louisa was deep into reading the gibberish book when GLADLY someone interrupted. She gave the boy a crooked smile, "Aah. Donald duck fan. Yeah, sure, settle down." As in set up your instruments on the table next to her. She even moved her stuff to the side a bit making more room for him. He carried nothing though other than the sundial and the nocturnal. No extra giant books or anything.

Duck feet? Seriously? Louisa let out a laugh that faded quickly when the boy didn't laugh back. Her eyes widened at him and she suppressed the grin, "Oh, you're serious. Well..uhh.. I don't really like posing as a.. d-"ork. "-uck." And hopefully he wasn't about to force her into wearing them LIKE HE DID IN CLASS. Ahem.

"Anyways!" She picked up the enthusiastic tone, "I don't believe I've ever told you my name but you can call me Louisa as we work on this assignment together." It was reeeeally a relief that he was a younger boy. She wouldn't get caught brewing romance if she accidentally touched his hand or leaned to check his sundial position or whatever. HEH.

"I was trying to get a reading from my sundial." She pushed the giant book toward him and pointed at the figure that she'd been staring at, "This is the hour numbers that should be aligned uniformly in all kinds of sundials." Touching the arrow suspended on her sundial, Louisa went on, "This arrow should cast a shadow on the sundial letting us know what time it is during the day. It's called gnomon." The arrow that is.

Louisa paused, glancing at the boy for any signs of mind block or sudden inspiration.
