He was paying attention. And scribbling down notes. And ruffling his hair from confusing. AND thinking... thinking mainly about the ice cream Hadley had said they could have.

Okay, no, Hadley was confusing him. Mainly because he had never realised that music was this... complicated. It sounded complicated to him but music and Arithmancy? Frown.

Okay, think about the ice cream. THINK ABOUT IT, SUMMERS. He looked down at his notes, his hand reaching up to ruffle his hair. Okay... so if an example of a 2:1 ratio was, say, 310 and 620, then he could just substitute one of those numbers into the 8:5 ratio and find out its corresponding ratio number, right? ... Right. It made sense to him. Maybe.

Scribble... scribble... calculate... scribble...

Once he was done, Alec tentatively raised his hair in the air, his attention now back to Hadley. "So... Professor? Could an example be 496 Hz to 310 Hz?" ... Did... she understand what he was talking about?
