A lot of this lesson was completely lost on Daxton. Not the actual science of the class, but rather all of the yelling about all sorts of things (except that it was not all yelling, but to Daxton's ears, it may as well have been). For his part, Daxton kept looking very intently out of the window, attempting to ignore anything and everything that was happening around him - not something he often did, not unless he was in real danger of being overwhelmed. As such, he missed much of the conversation, and the details of certain revelations.
But, when he had heard Airey Flamsteed's muffled voice through his covered ears, Daxton turned his head ever so slightly to watch the man himself, eager for the Astronomer to oust the ghost from the classroom and get back to the science. It seemed as though that was exactly what might happen, too, until...
Airey Flamsteed's fall to the ground and the resulting thud was almost comical. At last, Daxton uncovered his ears, then moved his hands to his desk and half-stood to peer over it and see the professor lying on the floor. And that... that was almost certainly Daxton's apple, rolling away from the scene of the crime. Daxton himself ignored the new question about gravity - though he might have provided an answer along the lines of gravity pulling in to a certain point, and creating the concept of 'down' if he had not - instead choosing to look down at Airey Flamsteed on the floor, unable to keep an oh-so-faint smile from tugging at the corners of his lips, given the amusing nature of the situation.
He continued ignoring the ghost.
