Aaaaaaand Airey was down. Again. Hadley Denaker just watched blankly. She wasn't even surprised. And no. She wasn't going to perform All Star in front of the class in hopes of reviving him again.

Why was the Head Lion such a drama queen?

Pulled down? Hadley was 99.99999999999999% with a bar on top sure that she hadn't said anything about gravity pulling down. She supposed she could just reiterate her answer of how gravity is generated by the mass of an object and pulls things toward the center of mass. Thus on Earth, we were pulled toward the Earth's core, which no matter where on Earth you were, was beneath you. And the Moon was being pulled toward the Earth's core too. It was just moving so fast, that to paraphrase Douglas Adams, it kept missing the ground. Like wise the Earth was in constant freefall around the Sun's core. And the Sun around the Galaxy's core.

Gravity.

Doesn't pull down. Pulls to the center.

She could have said all that. But Airey clearly wasn't in a state to hear her, just like he wasn't the first time she answered.

Hadley just wanted to eat her apple.
