Study? That... was what he'd been doing before the Head of House had torn him away. Granted, he'd been crying whilst doing it, but didn't everyone cry when they were upset? Jay just blinked at the man. "I was trying to." He just couldn't work out where he had gone wrong... nor why Flamsteed was so... weird. Or why he'd made him feel terrible. Maybe it was the quick dismissal of his wrong answer? He didn't know.
