astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Honestly, Atlas couldn't blame the one first year with regards to homework and not wanting to do it. Most of it was nonsensical busywork as far as this seventh year was concerned - especially when it was subjects and topics that had little or nothing to do with his own interests and aspirations. Just a method of making sure that could follow instructions and perform - and Atlas wasn't some performing creature nor the sort to ask how high when told to jump. Detentions weren't THAT bad anyway - nothing like the ones his dad had described to him during his tenure at Astronomy professor.
So, as far as that young lion was concerned, Atlas nodded him a little nod of the head. This kid...might be useful to help with one final glitter extravaganza as well.
Anyway, back to talking about himself now.
"Yeah...six thus far...two more, including Khepri here, planned," he explained to Nora. "They're all different insects except for Charlotte who is an arachnid." Atlas flicked his monocle back down, his focus returning to one of the remaining leg sockets for a little more tinkering...which required a couple of taps to his monocle with his wand for further magnification. "Khepri here will be my second with the ability to fly...but Thimble's design makes it so she can only perform flight over a very short distance." She was quite bottom heavy with her lightbulb, after all. He didn't mind the other boy essentially looming - Atlas' handiwork did warrant an audience. Still, he couldn't help offering up some additional advice. "I wouldn't worry too much about detention. Most professors are too soft to make it anything more than mind numbing anyway," he explained while finishing his tweaks on this leg and lifting his monocle again.
