"Juh..!", But before Cutty could get the word out, Simon had already uttered it. Too eerie. For the first time in his life, Cutty's face mirrored that of the person with whom he was communicating quite unintentionally. Wide-eyed suspicion.

It had suddenly faded, however to blank consideration as he looked down at his dormmates notes. "I was lookin' for a pattern. Trying to see if it mattered which numbers we combined to arrive at 7-9's numerical vibration. What I see is that the first three numbers are found by combining 1 with other numbers, then the next three are found by combining 2. Like, 2 plus 3 is five and 2 times 3 gives us 6 and so on. So I was wondering if the next set would be combinations of 3 or perhaps 5." He took a blank sheet of parchment and demonstrated for his dormmate just what he meant.
"If that's the case, then I think you'd be close with your answer for 9. Only, you've got the meanings for 4 and 6, which gives us 10." He spoke casually, though. Not his usual judgey self. Or he was holding it all in, as he was prone to rudeness. "I think you meant 5, anyway. Which gives us..."

"But if there is a pattern with 3, then maybe 9 might be..."

Cutty looked to his dormmate to try and glean anything of comprehension, although to his weak amygdala he was more likely trying to read an expression that suggested he was being followed or believed.
