Especially in a location with so much family history.

Not that he was becoming all misty eyed or anything. He was holding it together just fine and resembled a giddy toddler with a lollipop being dangled in front of its nose.

He DID manage to catch the...er...whatever that look was that Miss Brown was making in his direction and offered her a salute in reply before making his way towards the Flamsteed house.

Like uh, I did tell them to hang on tight, sir? Ahem. So good thing that situation was avoided all together, amiright or amiright?!

But uh, anyways. Before he could even think about trying to find Sophie Brown, it seemed as though she was already one step ahead, as usual. "Yeah, I'm always down for learning stuff," lie. But uh, field trip stuff he was always down for. Unless it was another one of Dakest's lame field trips to the broom closet because that was a total let down and Zander would not be made a fool of again. But they were already at this Royal Observatory, so clearly there was no trickery going on here. Thanks, Flamsteed you da illest.

Zander followed her lead, slightly tugging at her looped arm and giving her a goofy grin. "Uhhh.... Sure," he smiled deciding in the end that even though he wasn't normally one to soak in Flamsteeds speeches about all things space and life, he'd miss it one day probably. So why not? "Yeah, that's fine by me." He kind of wanted to hear it too in all honesty. Ahem. What?

"Wanna go to the planetarium first real quick?" Y'know before they ran after Flamsteed?

Zander was always down for learning stuff? Cute of him to say, even though Soph didn't buy it one bit. Still, she continued to look chipper as ever as they walked along, her eyes shiny with elation and enthusiasm for ALL THE FUN THINGS THAT WERE AHEAD OF THEM.

...But. FLAMMY. There he was, headed straight for... she didn't know what that place was, but Soph tugged right back on Zander's arm, her eyes still dancing with delight. "We should follow him. He looks way too excited for it to just be 'bout normal astronomy stuff. We should go with him. Bet he's goin' to see the BEST exhibit first and that's why he looks like he's about to burst."

The other things could wait. "Bet since he's, like, worked for NASA and stuff, he can get us in for behind-the-scenes kinda stuff and maybe special tours and all kindsa stuff, too. ASTRONOMER ROYAL FLAMSTEED," Soph called, tugging Zander into a jog to catch up with the man just before he reached the house. "We're hangin' with you. Because you're cool."

Sneaky brown-nosers with hidden agendas? Perhaps, and there was no doubt they weren't going to fool him, but WHAT WAS THIS PLACE? WHAT WAS HE SO GIDDY FOR?
