He nodded as she spouted off questions and his brown eyes flickered with light as she mentioned his wife. "Well, yes I was in Hufflepuff just like you young lady and I met my wife here aswell. She was a year young than me and in Ravenclaw. We got married when I was 20 and her was 19 and we had 4 children. We see each other daily in our portrait in a German museum of Astronomy." He could go on all day about her but she had an assignment. His small eyes watched her as she thought of what to ask him next.

Ah at least someone interested in his life's work. He couldn't count the number of little kids that used to ask him who he was and then instantly stop talking to him once he went on about the stars. "I have my doctorate in astronomy and magical elemental sciences."
"You may call me Dr, son." the man's small wide-set brown eyes gleamed a little as a small smile appeared on the man's face.

"I was married, and had four kids, daughters." He nodded, he had already mentioned to the other boy who was right there too that he got to visit with his wife's photo in the museum all the time.
Peering down on the boy's parchment he saw that he was getting good notes. "Good girl, I do have brown eyes and average spacing and size." Good work.
At the mention of
astronomy and
magical elemental sciences this Ravenclaw's eyes lit up. He had questions upon questions on those, far beyond the scope that this class was currently covering, so he feels a little guilty if he derails the discussion. BUT there was one thing he could still ask
"Doctor, from which institution of learning did you take up your degrees?" it would give him a lead to where he can sign up for said courses 'no?
"Also, have you conducted any recorded classes or have any published works that I could look into?" Ok so there are two questions, but they were all related to future studies in the field the man has a doctorate in.
And as Laura and Ethan asked their questions Vickers listened and observed. Should they only limit their observations with the eyes? Because this boy can pick up quite a lot from the way they carry themselves
He flipped his textbook open and looked up entries about the meaning of the eyes...
He looked up to gaze at the Astronomer again. Many of the meaning he just read can be found in this man. Although there was some lingering doubt on the validity of the claims of the book, since he has done his own readings on Genetics. But so far he hasnt read anything that stood out that he would strongly disagree on, so maybe there was something to this Oculomancy after all?
