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.

He furrowed his brow while trying to even out the lumps of the gunk poured into the pan. Should have an even surface of sorts. The picture on the recipe had things that way and since they were trying to emulate the recipe. Doing a mighty fine job if he said so himself. "Don't go falling into despair, Miss Cambridge. Even should the food in this kitchen be all used up, Professor Bentley has been able to create a make shift greenhouse inside the castle and can still grow plants. Although the photosynthesis process is by no means ideal, it is still efficient enough to make sure things grow. Food is still very much an option." How did that infamous expression going about turning on lights in dark times? This was one of those moments. Turn on the light, Miss Cambridge! TURN IT ON AND SEE THE POSSIBILITIES!

He chuckled. "Better Professor Smiles than Professor Glitter Trousers," he mused. He could live with that nickname - although he felt it would damper his masculinity a bit - but glitter...well, he had a new found hatred for the stuff. "But I would have to agree with Professor Bellaire ... at least in public." Although he doubted Cassiopeia would really mind being nicknamed after her signature facial expression.

And as long as they were talking about this logically... "Now you see why it is in my rules to never confuse it with astronomy," he replied, still chuckling a little. Although he had no doubt that Miss Cambridge had figured that out long ago. "Humans suffer from the Forer Effect and the Barnum Effect, excellent concept to look up on your own time, and such notions tailor to the human need to feel accepted and guided. It's as Shakespeare would say, 'the fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.'" And yes, there may have been a bit of a dramatic interpretation on that verse.

But really, he didn't need to be saying all this to Miss Cambridge. All things she already knew to a certain degree. Her acceptance of the logical was what made her such a stellar student of astronomy.

"Not to mention that the constellations nowadays are shifted in the sky by almost 36 degrees, which ends up being an entire month along the zodiac’s clock," he mused.

What were they talking about again?

"I would prefer to hear your side first, if you don't mind, rather than it be influenced by another's words." Although, to be quite frank, he would have rather the Divination professor bring Miss Cambridge along with her to his office to discuss the matter rather than it turning into a she-said, she-said situation. But alas.
