"How 'bout... I take Tobes' stuff," and she gave Tobes a subtle, almost knowing look like, I don't want you to feel weird if your stuff comes out really personal and Zander has to tell you all about your life story. She didn't want things to get awkward, and Soph would sugarcoat stuff if she had to and tell Tobes what it really said later. To protect him and all, even though... it seemed like nothing could bring the Hufflepuff down today. "Then Tobes can do Zander, and Zander can do mine," she offered, writing Sophie Mae Brown neatly on a spare bit of parchment and sliding it over to the Gryffindor. "Everyone okay with that?" If not, they were gonna have to be because Soph already set to writing out Tobes' full name on her parchment. Hehehehe.
...But he'd written his new last name. Hmmmm. Soph peeked at the textbook - chewing very lightly on her bottom lip, she mentioned delicately, "I think m'supposed to use your birth name." Right? "'The Transits are the individual letters and individual influences derived from your first, middle, and last names at birth, the one that was recorded on your original birth certificate,'" she read aloud, gesturing to the paragraph in chapter twenty-eight, then cautiously followed Tobias on her paper with Nestor Tempus and looked up at him for confirmation. Was she wrong? Was this okay? Quote:

When Soph spoke, Toby blinked at his parchment, and then pulled his textbook towards him to see if it really did say that. He stared intently at the passage, completely still for a moment, eyes narrowing, until finally he looked up and started bouncing and fidgeting away just as cheerfully as before. "Well, that's a pain," he practically chirped, giving the passage in his textbook a little flick. Then he gave a shrug like NBD DUDE. "I just automatically write this one now." But yeah, WHICHEVER. Toby was in TOO GOOD and TOO HYPER a mood to get upset by it. He'd decided today was a GOOD DAY after all. "Okay, let's seeeeee here... Mister Zander..." Just get those number values down first, then work on interpreting thingies. Zander was VERY relieved when Sophie opted to take Toby's calculations. Not that Zander had anything against Toby or anything-- he didn't-- but just something to do with the incredibly large amount of letters that the sixth year happened to have in his name. "Sounds great!" he smiled big at her before pulling the parchment that she had slid over, so that it was right in front of him. Sophie MAE Brown. Huh. He had never even known. Interesting.
It was a nice middle name, in Zander's opinion. Fitting, almost. And it was only three letters long so that was incredibly exciting. Meant less math and all. Just as he began to scribble out some of the calculations, Sophie went on to explain the whole combined last name thing versus birth name... And see, this is exactly why it was a good thing that Sophie Brown decided to take on Toby's calculations. Zander probably wouldn't have been able to catch that.
He also couldn't help but notice how Toby seemed to be slightly effected by the finding, but then the boy seemed to be fine and bouncy a few moments later, so the Gryffindor went back to work. "Alright, I think I've got this part done?" Now to figure out what it all means. 'Cause that's probably important and all. Probably.
