"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? Lewis just stared at her for a moment. STARED! What was going on? Why would he have changed his mind? Why was this so confusing? "N-no. I didn't." He stammered, trying to find the right words to say. And then before he could stop himself, he added with a small frown of confusion, "Why would I?" She obviously didn't WANT him to, at least judging by how she'd said it 'was nice to know' that he hadn't changed his mind. Confusing much?
And then she nudged him with her shoulder. Which caused him to just blink a couple of times not really knowning what to do. He wasn't familiar with this kind of...well, whatever this was, with the nudging and all. It was probably best to just do nothing at all for now. Especially seeing that Kurumi had returned her full attention back to her telescope.
Through which she probably didn't see anything. Or at least not what she was apparently looking for. No, no Mars tonight. But...come a different time, definitely. "Yes, that's a great idea." Lewis smiled happily at Kurumi, reaching for his bag to start packing, just to give himself something to do. "Because I really want to see Mars." Yeah, no, he didn't. What the heck was he talking about?!
Oh, so it really WAS pretty late already. Close to curfew? She would hate for HIM to get in trouble? "I think you would get into more trouble, actually." Since she was a PREFECT and all. "And I would hate for you to get in trouble because of me." He echoed her words with a small smile, turning to pack up his telescope when- Text Cut: Furmgoat and Kurumi again Quote:

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. Quote:

Well, owls WERE nocturnal creatures, so it was only natural that they would be flying around and, oh, never mind. She wasn't expecting a package that was for sure.
"Thank you," she said with a small smile at the owl, wondering who it could be from. Her left hand did reach for the silver heart pendant around her neck as she nervously opened up the letter though. Kurumi's violet eyes read over the letter and was surprised to see who it was from. Not only that, but the former Head Girl had sent her cookies! Talk about a complete 180 from where they had started things off. Kurumi reached into her pocket for one of her tuna fish cookies and offered it to the owl. -he heard some kind of noise. Was that wings flapping? And yes, it definitely was, seeing as all of a sudden there was an owl perched on Kurumi's telescope. And flew off again. It dropped its package next to it and Lewis watched Kurumi walk over to go get it.
Not meaning to pry or look nosy, he just continued to watch Kurumi for a moment as she read the attached letter and opened the package before busying himself with packing his bag again. He didn't even wonder that much who the letter and package might have been from. |
