"Funny...I think I might have heard him over the explosions." She'd been wondering what he was on about but didn't think to ask.
She winced at his mention of poking his eyes out.
"Yeah. Don't do that." She could only be so responsible. It would have been hard explaining that she let him poke his own eye out. At the same time, she wouldn't intervene. This was all him. She winced just a little, yeah, she saaaaaw him poke at his eye.
Seemed the second try worked better though.
"Sweet! Alright, we'll just find polaris again, shouldn't be too hard, we were just looking at it a second ago." Ah. See. Right where she left it. Good star. It would get a cookie later...she'd just need a REALLY long ladder.
Looking up at it she finally thought she was seeing what Professor Airey was talking about...mostly the big bright light but she was assuming that was both Polaris A and B. Just a tiny distance off she was sure she was looking at another star. Polaris Ab...? That was it...right??
"It's the smaller one that's polaris Ab, yeah?" She would assume so. This meant she'd found the system. Excellent! They could head back once he was done and no one would be the wiser!
When Lex uttered those words 'shouldn't be too hard', Tobias had a horrible feeling that it would be one of those 'famous last words' things. Except not last. Or famous.
So... words.
ANYWAY.
He turned out to be wrong which was of course a Very Good Thing because they were so close to being done that Tobias could almost taste the celebratory ice cream. He looked up and took a little longer finding it than he had the other times that night 'cause now he had his SUPER EYES and it was kind of weird and new. He DID look where he'd left it but it kind of moved... or maybe Tobias had... whatEVER. HE HAD IT NOW.
"Wow..." the tiny Hufflepuff exclaimed softly as he stared up at it. This magic lark would never get old. NOPE. Not at all. Wait, what? What was Lex saying?
"The smaller one that's right next to it, I think... yeah." As he finished that sentence, Tobias nodded, even though he knew Lex was probably looking up at the sky too.
"And Polaris B is slightly further away, maybe? I can't remember..."
It was just
so
shinYYY.
"Wow."
Yes, Tobias thANK YOU.
He was done now.
