It was imperative that he did so the man wouldn't try forcing him to go to those cruddy lessons anymore.

He didn't know whether or not it would work but the boy was desperate not to go back to Charms or Transfiguration class so any chance was better than no chance.

Entering the Observatory, it took him a while to realize he wasn't alone and an even longer while to realize it was the Slytherin Prefect but when he finally DID, he grinned. "Dot!" DID SHE REMEMBER HIM?? HI. The boy hurried over to her, hardly able to believe his luck

With her here, SHE could use the spell on the telescope then they could both look for craters.

What a relief.
Upon hearing her name, Dot jerked back to fully awake. Who... oh, baby ickle person! "Blaise. Homework buddies again, I guess," she waved him over before wondering if he even wanted to work near her. Did he want to be alone to do Astronomy? He was kind of stubborn about classwork, and he needed help in classes with a lot of wandwork. Like... maybe this was one he wanted to do by himself.

"You can work with me, if you want. Or I mean... you can... I don't know. There's a telescope right here next to me and I know the spell. Or whatever." Mentoring was hard. Everything was hard. Prefecting was impossible.

Dot decided to do the ignoring thing while Blaise got settled, and she refocused (ahem) her attention on the telescope. Still pointing at big glowy thing AND she knew how to make it easier to see the moon up close. "Lens focalis." The moon came sharply into focus, and now Dot could look for particular craters up close and personal.

Only... they all kinda looked alike, didn't they? Guess it was time to haul out the old textbook.
