"No." What even....? "No. I don't play that game period." How did one get patty cakes from Arithmancy numbers in the first place? It didn't seem real....even less real was what she asked next. "I feel like I don't need to have an opinion on them and you're being extra random." Was that the right answer? Probably not but that wasn't her problem. Lex walked over to her. "Here hold this." She said, offering one end of the measuring tape. She took a couple steps back then looked at the distance. "12." Give her a sec and she could tell you what it meant too.

12...interesting. She tilted her head and gave the girl a curious stare. "You wish you'd sat next to Ella?"

Obligingly grasping the end of Lex's tape measure, she squinted at her key in thoughtful silence. Professor French was never wrong, never ever, but she was fairly sure Cambridge didn't play children's games with the giant squid every Sunday. And... she was fairly sure her key was right...... French had said she was doing well...

It was Alexa's fault. Alice had TOLD her not to move. Psh.

"... no? I mean, I like Ella, but... I'm okay where I am, I think." She gave the younger girl questioning looks. "I think your key is wrong. C'mere, I'm gonna measure your height and see if I get better results."

Patiently waiting until Lex came over, the sixth year tugged her measuring tape from her subject's toe to head, coming up with a little over 1.5 meters, or 5 feet and an inch. "61 inches... that's not a number. You're meaningless." Maybe if she rounded down to five? 'Cept that wasn't a number either. Or one. Maybe if she added one and five together... "Did you have breakfast this morning?"

Please say no. Please? Alice couldn't lose faith in the best professor ever, it would be tragic.
