Theodore waited back at the TARDIS, he'd periodically check in with Lila during the class, and from what she said, it's a normal psychology class, boring, but Lila's keeping watch. She gave him details on the students, they only talked when Professor Stanford called on them, otherwise they remained largely silent. Almost made Lila want to act out, because of how eerily it felt being in the classroom with silent classmates.

She merely joked this, but Theodore warned her against it, before asking more about the class. He helped her with stuff that she didn't have an idea on, but otherwise, the class looked as normal. Students remaining abnormal. The cluster of strangeness.

Lila remained covert as she spied on the class and Professor Stanford, until the end of the class, and she told Theodore that she'll be back at the TARDIS in a few minutes.

Theodore stayed by the TARDIS waiting for her, wearing fur-lined gloves and all, as he felt the chill of the wind pushing against his face.

He sees her walking towards him with papers and books pressed against her chest as she's trying to avoid getting caught in the cold breeze.

Relieved, Theodore opened the door for her as she rushed in with her papers ruffling in the breeze.

Immediately, Theodore asked her questions and Lila gave him answers as she sat the stack of books and papers down near the steps as she ran a hand through her hair.

"He monologues too much, but otherwise, he's like any other professor," Lila tells Theodore as she sat near the stack.

Sighing, Theodore asked if she found anything of note, which Lila replied that it's what she told him. None of the classmates talked unless Professor Stanford called on them.

"I don't like it," Theodore concludes as he sat beside her while she went through the papers. Her homework for the first class, going through books, and answering questions. The typical homework.

Lila tells him, "I doubt he'll do anything to me on the first day. From what Conan said, it took a while before Eve showed changes."

Frowning, Theodore rested his hands under his chin as he thinks to himself while Lila worked on her homework.

"I have him again for the rest of the week, maybe something happens at the end of it, I don't know what to tell you, Theodore," Lila shrugs as she began looking through the first book as she held the first piece of paper next to it.

Flipping through the pages, she begins to read the passages required for the first portion of the homework.

Theodore sat beside her, looking at the page as Lila thumbed through it for details, and Lila reminded him that she can't have help with her homework. Cheating's not acceptable and all that.

"I really don't like this, Lee," Theodore motioned with his bare hand after taking off his gloves.

Lila turned towards him and asked, "Is it because of the dinosaurs?"

Theodore's always the cautious one of the two, but became more so after that disaster of an adventure.

Left Lila with bite marks up her arms, feeling numb from the antibacterial stuff the doctors gave her, and sleeping was a PITA!

After that adventure, Theodore never felt more inclined to keep her leashed, at least what she felt, because of it.

"Maybe so, what of it?" Theodore looked away briefly.

Sighing, Lila tells him while she nudged him with her shoulder, "I told you I was okay after the medicine took and the bites healed. Come on, spaceman, maybe we were out of our element the first time around, but it's been... what twenty adventures ago... I know what I'm getting into."
