Kurumi's and Vivi's answers made him STARE. "Now hold on a minute," he said to both of them and looked at Hadley to confirm his suspicion. "You're telling me that with numbers, I can figure out the best time to spy on other quidditch teams AND figure out their tactics?" Because that was what Milton's brain filter said.

There was a match in a few days, he obviously had quidditch on the brain. And... nothing IN the brain.
Kurumi tried to turn her attention back to her parchment, but she felt the eyes of a certain FAKE!Ravenclaw staring at her. What had she done now?! It wasn't like she was trying to tell him how a steam train worked or anything.

Oh, wait, he was just asking about numbers and how it could relate to Quidditch. Since he was staring at her, implying that he was also expecting an answer, so Kurumi turned around slightly in her seat to look more at Milton. "In a sense, yes," Kurumi nodded. "For example, let's say you are playing against a team whose members have a majority of people who are having a Personal Day Number of 7. That is a day that you are supposed to rest, so you could conclude that your opponent won't be in their best shape. Or if you are having a Personal Day Number of 2, it is probably a good idea to look over rosters and scout because you are having a day where you are especially patient and paying attention to details." Of course, one also had to take Personal Month and Personal Year into consideration as well, but that was the gist of it really.
