Thornton followed Toby quite closely as they entered the room, eyes widening at the yoga mats. What was it with professors here and their hatred of traditional desks? At least the room had sun.

He forced a smile at the professor when Toby greeted her but then spied Lex up at the front, and froze. Whatever was going on with her, he wanted to steer clear. Blinking, he tried to clear his thoughts, and saw that Toby had moved over to a spot by the window.

He hurried over, claiming the open space, and dug into his extended bag, pulling out his quill and inks, ready to take notes.

"Thanks for.. uh, getting me in here," he said, softly, as he settled onto the mat.
