"Nice to know...you didn't change your mind," she said, obviously flustered as she nudged him playfully with her shoulder. Why did she do that? Kurumi blushed a bit and pretended to fuss with her telescope.
Nothing to see here but the stars...and a lack of Mars. Ahem.
When Lewis confirmed what she already knew, about not being able to see Mars and she smiled gently at him deciding to go with pretending like she had just made the discovery herself. "Oh, it looks like you're right," she said. "We will just have to come back at a different time and try." Because it would be really fun to be able to spot all the planets, yeah? Kurumi thought so at least.
It was then that Kurumi looked at her pocket watch and her eyes widened. "Oh my stars," she squeaked with surprise. How did it get to be this late already?! "It is getting close to curfew already. We should start heading inside. I would hate for you to get in trouble because of me." Maybe they should have asked Professor Roslund permission to stay out past curfew for the sake of the assignment?
It was getting to be about prime hunting time, but Furmy was still hoping that the human he was delivering to would give him treats. This was a far fly for the little owl, and with no stops for mice! He should get TWO treats.
The tawny owl swooped low into the corridor, the flapping of his wonky wings making his presence known, not that the girl person and her companion couldn't see him heading directly for them. "Hoooooo." He made to land on the telescope, but it started to wobble dangerously, so he lifted himself back into the air, circled them once, then landed on nearby sill. The package with an attached letter settling beside him softly.
Staaaaaaaaaaaaaare.
SPOILER!!: Letter and Package

From:: Evelyn Flores
Hey Kurumi...
So I was on a baking spree this weekend and made too much. Thought you'd might like them though since apparently no one else trusts my cooking skills yet. Either that or they think I did something to them. Don't worry, I didn't poison them. They're peppermint.
Hope everything is going well for you now.

PS. Tell Sierra I said 'hi', and update me about Miss Name Stealer when you can.
The letter is attached to a
small package.
