Yeah, that look from Cutty? Tobias totally missed it. He had been paying attention to the others talking about the weak spots, and was therefore distracted.

"It makes sense for it to be Algiz, since it's for protection," Tobias added, to show he agreed. Also, that one kid had made a good point about how Algiz broke the pattern, so yeah. "So we need to do Intaglio and carve........... uhhh..." What was an opposite of Algiz? "Maybe... what about Isa? 'Cause that rune can work to block things and stop them, so it could maybe stop the protection of Algiz?"

He paused and bit his lip. Tobias really wanted to prove that he knew this stuff to Botros. "And if not that one, maybe Hagalaz, 'cause that one is more to do with destruction."

Tobias looked at his classmates again. "Whatcha reckon?"

Oh, there was Cutty. He got a wave. Hiiiiiiiii Cutty.
