I shake my head and mutter, “It’s not like you’re wrong.”
“Well yeah, but I didn’t have to be such a dick about it,” she says, but I don’t miss the slight twitch of her lips as she fights a smile. When she turns her attention back to McCall, I pull out my phone and frantically text our group chat under the table, and the answers roll in immediately.
Thane Rorvik
Nyx is here.
Killian Hastings
What?
Thane Rorvik
She tested into the advanced classes over break.
Roth Kovacs
Is this going to be a problem?
Thane Rorvik
I don’t think so?
Luther Falke:
That was convincing.
Killian Hastings
Ask her what other classes she has.
Thane Rorvik
Ask her yourself.
Killian Hastings
Yeahhhhh that might be a problem.
Luther Falke
What did you do now?
Roth Kovacs
Have you been a bad puppy, Killer?
Killian Hastings
Fuck all y’all. I’ll tell you tonight.
After a few minutes, she answers my question. “Other than this, I have Economics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Runic Studies, and Taxonomic studies. But I’m still in Divination from last term. And Physical Training.” She rolls her eyes. I can only imagine it’s from the thought of partnering with Luther. Again. I quickly relay what she said to the group chat.
Luther Falke
That’s at least one class for all of us.
Roth Kovacs
