Wow....that Mr. Flamsteed sent a worse chill up and down his spine than the chilly night breeze - and not just because he had ties two scarves together to make a super scarf. As for his brother...well....he had TRIED to wake him up but no dice. The last time that had happened had been when Atlas had practiced his Aguamenti on Aries and, well, the bed had been soggy and the water had splashed over to his own bed and it had just been a mess. He was pretty sure Apollo had not noticed the puddle near his bed that had also crept towards his trunk either so....anyway...
Trying not to destroy anymore school property here. Atlas truly was doing the school a service with his restraint.
But he also really did not want to just throw Aries under the Knight Bus either so...time for some quick thinking.
"He wasn't feeling well, professor...so he stayed behind with some tea and was going to see the healer," he explained while giving juuuuuuuuust enough details to make it believable. He had plenty of prank objects in his trunk that they could use to fake an illness too so...he would be shoving those down Aries' throat once he returned to the dorms. "I'm the better note taker and have the superior memory between the pair of us anyway so I'll lend him my notes later."
Tugging on his scarf a bit and rocking back on his heels. He really wanted to tune out and just fiddle with device in his pocket...but now he had to cover for Aries and actually participate. He brother wasn't even HERE and his plans were being ruined. Temporarily, at least. "Many are tied to the phase of the moon, like the Norandola whose pollen can really only be used when harvested in the evening of a full moon...and the one she mentioned..." Ah yes, his signature pointing towards Claudine. "...only bloom during a full moon ...and there is a thing called moon gardening where the gravitational pull of the moon is said to impact moisture in the soil and leaf movements and stuff. Which isn't really specific to night since the moon is a constant part of the sky, day or night, but still feels relevant."
