With his tea in hand Olly made his way back to his desk and jotted down a few notes.
How many moons were in their solar system? Olly had no idea. More than eight probably. He knew some planets had more than one moon. Were there some planets without any moons at all? He wasn't really sure about that. As for how many moons he thought there were he'd probably guess 10 maybe? 12? But he really had no idea. So he just quietly sipped his tea and let other people answer.
Noelle had been perched next to Olly even before the professor had started speaking. She'd said hello to the professor but not many others. It was no offense to anyone, she was just tired... worried.. and just wanted her bed. After this class, she was going to sleep. .... Wait no... She was on patrol duty tonight. Merlin.
It was hard for her to come out of her of her thoughts when the Professor had started speaking. She blinked and tried to wake herself up some more to pay attention. Something about the solar system. And planets. 8 planets. And moons.
Moons... like sheep jumping over the moon. The old tale that her mum used to tell her to get her to sleep. One sheep jumped over the moon. ...
drifts off... She felt movement next to her and jerked awake out of her almost sleep. Olly was drinking tea.
What was the question?
Noelle poked
Olly. "
What was the question?" She asked in a whisper. She figured there was a question since no one was talking.. not even the professor at the moment.
