"Yes, that's right." She smiled, a bit proud that she managed to pass on her legendary compass-work to someone. Hehe. "Now, the arrow.." emphasizing on the word that he suggested they should use, ".. casts a shadow on the sphere with numbers on it. You try to see which number does the shadow touch and it'll be the time of the day."

Moving her eyes away from Daichi and onto her own sundial, she tilted her head trying to read her number. The shadow was so faint considering the sunlight in such weather but she managed to get a shadow close to number three... so maybe it was three fifteen or three thirty in the afternoon. Straightening up, the Ravenclaw looked at him in anticipation. "What did you get?"

Daichi blinked again in confusion as Louisa told him about a chapeau. A word he had NEVER heard before and he wondered if the girl was using such BIG words in purpose. But he also didn't want to been seen as stupid so he smiled and nodded his head as though he knew what she was talking about, while in reality he had no clue.

His cheeks flashed fire again when he heard she found the bow charming. No one had ever said that to him and he felt quiet flattered. He wanted to be charming when he grew up! And he strong man who was super cool! So this step was in the good direction right?

Okay, so it wasn't really helping either when she said *arrow* instead of Gnomon because he knew what Arrow meant. He let out a soft giggle but bit his lip to not laugh again. "Just look at the shadow?" he asked as he scratched his head. Maybe it was better if he checked her out first ...AND NOT LIKE THAT!

The Slytherin left his own sundial and shuffled a bit closer towards her as he tried to look over her shoulder. But he was a little too short even though he had grown over the summer and was looking at her astronomy robes so he stepped to the side and could now see how she was reading the shadow.

But OF COURSE she didn't tell the time..ugh. Daichi turned back to his own sundial and peered at the arrow or Gnomon trying to read the time. The shadow was faint thanks to the weather and the Slytherin had a hard time reading it. "Uhm...it's....wait...i don't know ..five?"

This was so confusing O__o
