By now, any bitterness he felt towards this subject had disappeared. He was still terrible at it even after all the tutoring Sadie was giving him...but at least he was not being terrible out of spite anymore. Even when he was, he still tried his best not to kill too many plants - Auntie June had made sure to instill a whole lot of guilt about that ... and he did feel a little bad for kind of sort of instigating the whole BURN THE GREENHOUSES a couple of terms back or whatever.
Approaching the group, Atlas even managed a polite smile towards the professor. He had never been RUDE to the man, but change was hard for him sometimes and the comfort and safety net of family teaching a subject you were rubbish at being ripped out from under you was a lot to deal with at times. "Hello, professor," he even greeted before his bright blue eyes scanned those present and...he felt a weird sort of twist. He happened to catch the unnecessary glare that Victoria had thrown in Little Quirky Claw's direction and, well, there was a big moment of personal deja vu which was all the initiative he needed to go stand by that kid. "Yo, Mercer. Dug up anything else nifty on the grounds recently?"
Still not admitting to the rock "coffin" being his own doing, by the way.
Fleeting smiles were offer to Jude and a little lingering one to Lisa...but soon enough shifted his attention back to Mercer.
