He didn't get it. Well, he didn't get a lot of things. "What's a tradishooon?" was an example of him not getting one of those things. That word had come up a few times but it took him that long to really figure out that he had no idea what it meant. He listened while Fox explained Peregrine's origins. They weren't very interesting, though he did briefly wonder what made brothers mean. He wasn't a mean brother, or at least he didn't think he was. Maybe he was a mean brother and didn't know it.

When Wildfire spoke, Nightjar shot her a skeptical look and asked, "how d'you know?" She's a naturalist, was the obvious answer, but it didn't cross his mind that she might know more than him about something. Everyone knew more than Nightjar about everything except maybe instinctual things, and Nightjar knew the adults knew more about everything, but it was shocking (to him and nobody else) that his sisters knew more than he did about anything, and so he waited with a perplexed expression for a magical answer about how Wildfire could possibly be more observant and learned than him, the literal dunce.
