Toby studied both Arithmancy and Muggle Studies, so a joint lesson would be pretty convenient in a way, squishing it all into one time slot. But, at the same time, joint lessons could be difficult on the brain. You had to absorb more information sometimes, and for two different subjects. When you had problems concentrating and initially processing information, that could make things challenging. Luckily, Toby was usually up for a challenge. As long as he was prepared for likely feeling exhausted by the time the lesson was over.

He headed straight for his seat by the window now, glad nobody had taken it yet, sat down, and set up his things. "Morning Professor Tanner, Professor Moxley," Toby said, and was about to say something else when he caught sight of the cobwebs.



Everywhere. They were literally everywhere, all over the school. And cobwebs meant SPIDERS and Toby was LOWKEY TERRIFIED OF SPIDERS, OKAY? He deadpanned at the nearest collection of cobwebs and subconsciously rubbed his itchy ankle on the chair leg, trying not to think about the possibility of arachnids chilling out in this room. Toby gave an involuntary shiver, which turned into shifting about in his seat, then he bounced his knees and tapped his quill. Fidgeting, the usual. Of course.
