Alex shrugged. "Letters, symbols, it's all the same when it comes to cryptograms, right?" he said with a chuckle. It was supposed to be confusing no matter what you used. "And awesome! It took me a while but I got it eventually. Thanks for helping me with mine," he added with a grin.

"I'm sure you'll get full marks on it," he added as an afterthought. "It was really creative."
