He looks like he would like to hit Copernicus with it. "Am I interupting something?"
Before Copernicus could answer him, another voice was beside him and pulling up a chair. Noticing it was simply his housemate - Abby Wright - Dom shook his head when she asked if they minded her studying with them. Of course not; they were a very open group. Though it seemed like Cope already answered Abby, so there was no sense in contradicting him anyway.

Interrupting something? Nothing that she needed to be concerned with. "No. You're good," He gave his peer a convincing smile.

"Hey, Abby. Um... no. No, I guess not. We were about to discuss study schedules, I think. Maybe it would help to know what topics we each need special help with. I need to focus on History of Magic and Runes, but obviously I want strong scores in every subject I'm taking. Which is... everything but Astronomy and Divination."
"Don't worry about it. It's not your fault." Dominic explained in vagueness to the Ravenclaw. It was true though; it wasn't Copernicus' fault at all. Girls were insane and there wasn't really any easier way to put it.

But they were moving on regardless from that topic and to the reason why they were here in the first place; figuring out what subjects to concentrate on and which they needed help with. "I need to focus on pretty much anything involving wandwork," the head boy admitted sheepishly. It was true though; with the exception of Runes, he was fine with all the subjects that didn't deal with wandwork. "But yes, likewise for me, I want strong scores in everything I'm taking. Which is everything, except maybe Runes. I have to talk with Professor Lupa regarding that subject still and whether I should attempt the exam or not." Because after his failed OWL attempt, he wasn't really sure he wanted to deal with the subject again.

You'll have to show me how to make one of those." Abby pulls out a journal from her bag. "Let's see... I need to consentrate on DADA, Charms, Transfiguration, and of course Potions. I'm so glad I don't have to take a NEWT in Astronomy. Borr is a complete idiot. Have you ever heard of teaching Astronomy in the middle of the day?"
"Astronomy isn't a bad subject," Dominic argued against. Of course having Borr teach it was pretty much a waste of time; almost comparable to Bunbury teaching Herbology, but the Head Boy decided against stating THAT opinion of his. "The subject material in itself is actually pretty fascinating. I think that it's what the teacher makes of it that can either make or break ones perceptions of the subject. Of course that's true for any subject, not just Astronomy."
