This was EASY, now he thought of it. Everything he knew about the constellation was coming FLOODING BACK. Yep. Ursa MINOR was essentially like... a mimicry of the PLOUGH, but a little skewed up and stuff. A saucepan-esque THING, hence why some called it the Little Dipper. No extra stars on top of that, 'cause it was itty bitty.
Toby pointed his wand at the sky again, and RIIIIIIIIIGHT AT POLARIS THERE HI YES HELLO YOU. He didn't do his flagrate spell this time 'cause the light from the LAST one was DISTRACTING and hurting his EYES. But he still traced the business end of his wand THROOOOOUGH the air, from POLARIS and doooown to make a HANDLE or TAIL (depending on what you were calling it) and then finished up with the BODY or... saucepan-bowly-bit.
YEP. That was TWO DOWN, YEAH!

"Polaris. You said it very loud. Do you suppose the stars can hear you? I hope not, because then they would know all our secrets. Also, hi. Do you know the princess? I'd like to find her, and I remember that she stays up all the time... or is that her mother?" Dot poked one of her feet up at the sky and traced Ursa Major herself. Big. Bearthing.
"Can I stay here with you? You can tell me the secrets that you tell the stars."
More victory laps? Or. NO. STAR JUMPS. Or... actually, NEITHER. Because Toby-o had some company.
"Dot! Hi!" He might have HUGGED her were they not both laying there on the ground. Instead he settled for giving her a big grin.
"I don't think I'd MIND if the stars could hear my secrets, y'KNOW? I think I'd trust a star with my secrets the same way I trust a dog with them." Which was saying a LOT, 'cause Toby told his dogs aaaaaaaaaall the secrets EVER. He looked back up into the sky.
"The princess, huh? Andromeda?" YEAH? MAYBE?
"I THINK I know how to find her. I think Cass-... Cassie-... Ca-... her mother can be seen aaaaaall year round, and you can find her between the two I already found-" He pointed straight up in the direction he was talking about
"-and then Andromeda's near her. And Pegasus is by them both too."
Man. STARS. Toby looked up at them, dazzled. 'Cause stars and constellations were pretty awesome.
"You TOTES stay with me, Dot. We can find another constellation together, yeah?" He could find Cassiopeia and help Dot find the PRINCESS, if she liked. YEAH. If she could stand all the talking he was doing. OOPS.
