astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf The.......what?
No...that was NOT what Derf had said...which now left the Hufflepuff blinking in confusion for a moment and the gears in his head unnecessarily spinning into overdrive and he sat in his seat ruffling his hair quite a bit. WHAT had dad said about it? Derf could really only remember the mythology and stuff behind it at the moment, which really did not help much with what he was trying to clarify. Or was HE also confused and the mythology was more for the Crux than the Southern Cross? WERE they the same thing?! He THOUGHT one had more stars than the other...but maybe not and o many things seemed to have two words to mean the same thing, you know? Language was fascinating and confusing and using common names for other things was something completely normal. Like... Triturus cristatus and Great Crested Newt. Which meant he was now thinking about Scamander inside hia pocket. Eventually something DID click ...something about a word that started with A...but Derf couldn't remember the word at the moment and he was already feeling kinda awkward for being so loud earlier soooooooo he just nodded his head to the man as he spoke and moved things along.
He didn't really know what he was talking about in this class anyway. Shoulda picked a constellation with a creature rather than a shape, clearly.
As for the question, again, the Hufflepuff became crestfallen because he did not know. He supposed he could flip through his textbook though and find the answer there? Which was what he started to do...only to get distracted reading about Serpens and Ophiuchus.
