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.

SPOILER!!: Parchment
Zander Mathew Adair

Mental Transit - Middle Name

M = 4 (ages 0, 1, 2, 3, 4)
A = 1 (age 5)
T = 2 (ages 6, 7)
H = 8 (ages 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
E = 5 (ages 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
W = 5 (ages 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

4 + 1 + 2 + 8 + 5 + 5 = 25

Spiritual Transit - Surname

A = 1 (ages 0, 1)
D = 4 (ages 2, 3, 4, 5)
A = 1 (age 6)
I = 9 (ages 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
R = 9 (ages 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

1 + 4 + 1 + 9 + 9 = 24


Toby leaned back from his parchment again and streeeeetched out his arms and FIDGETED around for a moment. HOKAY. All the maths part done, just a teeeeeeeeeeny break before the real THINKING part.

Enough time to fantasise about later when he would get his pogo stick and BOUNCE around the grounds.

"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.

SPOILER!!: Calculations
Sophie Mae Brown

Mental Transit (Middle Name)

M 4 (ages 0-4)
A 1 (age 4-5)
E 5 (ages 5-10)

4 + 1 + 5 = 10

Spiritual Transit (Surname)

B 2 (0-2)
R 9 (2-11)
O 6 (6-17)
W 5 (17-22)
N 5 (22-27)

2 + 9 + 6 + 5 +5 = 27


"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.

...Oh. Eh hem. Sophie Brown absoLUTELY noticed the very brief change in Tobes' demeanor before he went back to bouncing, and she pressed her lips together in dismay and regret. Sorry, Tobes. But... he was okay, yes? He set right on ahead to do Zander's calculations, and Zander soon followed suit to start on her calculations, so...

Onward she went.

Text Cut: Parchment
Mental:

N = 5 (ages 0-5)
E = 5 (ages 5-10)
S = 1 (ages 10-11)
T = 2 (ages 11-13)
O = 6 (ages 13-19)
R = 9 (ages 19-28)
= 28

Spiritual:

T = 2 (ages 0-2)
E = 5 (ages 2-7)
M = 4 (ages 7-11)
P = 7 (ages 11-18)
U = 3 (ages 18-21)
S = 1 (ages 21-22)
= 22

When she finished with figuring out how long each cycle lasted, she peeked up to check on the others' progress. "Me too." They both seemed to be FINE and everything was ENTIRELY normal... but Sophie started giggling because she thought about how they were having TRIO TIME and all THREE OF THEM were WORKING TOGETHER. IN A GROUP. IN A UNIT.

SHE WAS SO HAPPY. And the happiness simply began to burst from her being in the way of giggles. Don't worry, team. She'd be fine in just a little bit. Probably.
