"Talking to Professor Flamsteed is a good first step. Another step could be finding a study buddy. Do you have a friend or someone in your house that you know is apt in astronomy that can help you study?" Leo had learned that friends sometimes could explain things in an easier way than professors could.
When Zeke mentioned Czech of all known languages in the world Leo leaned down under the counter and brought up the enormous book listing all books that could be found in the library. Opening it up to the index portion he skimmed until he found the language books."You're in luck Zeke. We actually do have a book about the Czech language in the storage room." Which was a surprise to Leo, laughing he shook his head. "I doubt they were pirates in the old days but I’m not very knowledgeable about the Czech Republic at all. Is there any particular reason why you need to learn the Czech language on top of your magical studies?" That first step was going to be a necessary one, he already knew. BUT... a study buddy wasn't a bad idea. "I know Paige is all sorts of awesome with school stuff, and Hady said she'd help..." they were good peeps. Other than that, nobody else came to mind. Mmmmm... that was something to think about.
Was it something he'd said?
Zeke watched as Leo pulled a HUUGGGEEE book out and started rifling through it. Weird. He leaned forward on the counter to get a better look at what he was doing, noticing then that it was like an index of sorts. He'd seen those in the back of books before... not that he ever used them. He enjoyed the thrill of the hunt too much to spoil it with indexes.
AND SUCCESS! "Awesome, that'd be super handy. Could I check it out till the end of the year please?" HEHEHE... geddit? CHECK it out? Czech it out? HAHAHAHA. He was so funny sometimes. It was a shame though that Kitridge didn't think they were pirates. Pirates were cool. He wanted THIS to be cool. Sigh. "Mmm, yeah, well Mum's been wanting me to learn it for a while now, but I never bothered, cause y'know... why would I when we live in London?" That had been his excuse about French as well, but there were reasons why he needed to know that too. "But now she's saying we'll be there for summer breaks and stuff." Not that he wouldn't be able to get by on his English, he was sure that he could, but there was no arguing with Emily on this one. He'd concede and try. He would try under the delusion that he was learning a sacred pirate language. Yep.
