Xander felt like he was missing something that Milo had caught, but he didn't question it. He didn't have time to question it. The grades were passed out along with their (usually) neat folders with their projects in them. Xander received a B+, which he was very satisfied with. It wasn't anything mind-changing or anything, but he'd dug in and tried to find lesser known facts about his event in history and present them in a clear way. The "presented in a clear way" was his weakest point, but at least he'd done well!
Alec sat frowning at his folder, confused. He'd received one point above passing. A solid D. Nearly an F. This had to be a mistake. He'd put in a lot of work and effort and had even asked Becky to look over it to make sure he was presenting it clearly. If Becky could follow something historical, you know you did something right. Maybe it was a mistake. He'd ask about it after class.
