The woman had a point. It was like the normal handshake at the end of a fight; you wouldn't need to shake hands and come to a middle ground if there wasn't the fight. He nodded slowly at her before looking down at his work. "Thanks, Professor." Broaden his mind. Sure, he could do that. It just sounded like it required a LOT of--
........................... Oh? This was an interesting turn of events.
Very interested indeed.
"'Sup Soph!" he said, sending a wink her way. And look, out of all the people that had been picked to work with this Newell, it ended up being him. Good choice, Domingo, good choice. Numbers working more than you give them credit for? WELL. "What she means is that sometimes, an unlikely pairing that doesn't look like it can work well can actually work very," He looked over at her. "very well together. You just have to broaden your horizons. Think of the possibilities."
And he was getting distracting by a certain third year sitting next to him. Oops.
The fourth year did look up at Domingo in time to hear her say something about the Reduction Method. And then Ethan and Simon, being the smart guys that they were, had already gone ahead and explained. "I agree with Ethan and Simon," he said, his hand raised in the air, "For some numbers, you keep certain double digit numbers." Like the number eleven in the Master Numbers that was mentioned in the textbook.
What were the Master Numbers, exactly?
There had been some question asked...something about volunteers, but Sophie wasn't interested in any of that. Besides, the professor herself had told Sophie to work with Grayson, so she was totally doing what she was supposed to be doing right now. Nevermind the fact that there was something about a Reduction Method being discussed around her.
Sophie listened to Grayson's explanation, and when he was done, she raised her eyebrows and smiled at him.
"Hmm," she said, and she glanced down at her parchment and copied down a few motes.
"I'll have to keep that in mind then."
Sophie had had no idea what Ethan and Simon had said, but she tuned in to the class discussion just in time to add to what Grayson had just said.
"...and I agree with Grayson," she said, raising her hand and then eyeing the boy next to her. It was her little secret that she was agreeing with him about the whole unlikely pairing working very well thing and not whatever Ethan and Simon had said.
