He killed the remaining hour by hunting for lint and examining the stones that made up the school building--whoever had been making granite in this area had done a bang-up job of it. He might not know a great deal about Earthman society, but he did know good craftsmanship, and whoever had been in charge of this part of the world had clearly known what they were doing.
Come six o’clock he wandered down to the Great Hall, a small red square on a gold chain dangling from his fingers.
“All, all, all right, if everyone, ah, could kindly hop into the car--” he indicated an aircar that looked suspiciously like a minibus, hovering several feet above the floor “--and, and, and buckle up, we can, ah, we can be, well, we can be off.”

This thing is being driven by the barmy bloke who sold me a moon in exchange for charming lint!" Not able to stop herself from watching, Lily turned back around, leaning against Cox.
