Hey, he hadn't given up hope that Pebbles would return to him and THAT had paid off...so perhaps the odds were in his favor even if statistics were against him?

Which reminded him that he still needed to post that missing poster. Could give the kids something to do now that they were all locked up inside the castle...

"Afraid I can't say for sure either way, Miss Cambridge," he frowned as he sort of stopped stirring and began stabbing the contents of his pan. "Meteorology is a complicated field that tries to predict what weather will look like, but by no means is a guarantee. From what I have been able to deduce from my own readings and research...well...it's not looking good." And 'sir'? Really, Miss Cambridge? You know better than that. So raised eyebrow to you missy. "All storms pass eventually," he confirmed, mustering some sort of a smile on his face. Eventually being the keen word in this. Only then the slightly amused eyebrow and doofy grin on his face turned into a slightly confused one. "Professor Smiley?" he repeated.

Merlin, he really did need to come down from his tower more. Didn't even know there was a Professor Smiley on staff!

Oh wait. Never mind.

Now he was just feeling cocky that, by process of elimination, he had come to the right conclusion as to who the student in question had been. Score one for the astronut! "I did hear about that assignment," he replied coyly as he stopped stirring to look at the prefect. "Pity our signs don't match up." Because otherwise then surely she would have been delivering him a card, yes? Hello ego blasting off into orbit.

Picking his next words carefully as he watched her butter the pan, he began to tip the pan in his hands over - the one with all the gunk in it - and began to pour it into the pan. The butter sizzled and melted, forming a butter soup at the bottom. It was supposed to look like that, right? Right.

"I heard there were some...disturbances that lesson in regards to the material being covered."

Just caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasually bringing it up.


Lex watched the sizzling butter in the pan as it got heated and the contents poured into it. Don't ask her if it was right, how would she know? She was simply here to hand him things as the recipe called for it and not question it afterward.

Her attention was drawn from the pan at his uncertainty. Lex was never one to appreciate a lie but sometimes she made exceptions to this rule...like when she'd rather not hear that there was no way of knowing when this storm would let up. The Gryffindor paled slightly at his words. "It's not?" Looking good that is. "B-but do we have enough food for worst case scenarios? We can't exactly conjure ourselves a sandwich and call it a day, Gamps Law and all." If this wasn't sorted, they could very well all starve so forgive her for not doing the courtesy of returning the smile. The Gryffindor took food very seriously around this place and she took her birthday and summer even more seriously too.

Hmm? He didn't know? "Professor Smiles--though I reckon Professor Bellaire said I should stop calling her that regardless of me being allowed." But was Bellaire here...? Noooope.

She would have proper explained but he caught the gist of it soon enough after the cards and Astrology were mentioned. Alexa scowled deeply at the Professor. He may have been joking but she couldn't fine the humour. "It's not funny and doesn't matter. If I'd run into you first I'd have given the card to you and it wouldn't have meant anything. Just so happened that Professor Bellaire was in the corridor first." Did he get it? Did he? Who the hell cared what someone's bloody sign was? "It's not REAL. The month you were born in doesn't dictate a thing about you. How very illogical to think such a thing. Where's the proof of science? Planets can't influence such things. They can't--"

Say what? "Disturbances...?" Her brows slowly creased in confusion. "I...wouldn't say that. Can I ask what she told you?" Because boy oh boy Lex was about to go off regardless. This...didn't sound like what happened by virtue of the fact he said disturbances and those were never good in lessons. She didn't disturb anything.
