Sebastian continued to give Rylie 'that look' until she asked him to read. Again. So he turned to give 'that look' to the book instead. It lay there, still folded over both their legs, being very much not affected by his look. He skeptically picked it up with his thumb and forefinger and turned back to Rylie.

"You know it's our heads if someone comes back from class and sees us reading this together. Or mine at least, as you seem to not care." He made his best I-am-putting-up-with-so-much face at her and lay the book back down.

He couldn't believe he was doing this, but he couldn't just stalk away he would never hear the end of it. And so, with eyebrow raised, he began reading on in an exaggerated monotone accompanied by mocking voice.

"Number Two: Improve your appearance without going overboard! Little touches go a long way! Glamour charms are in high demand and simple ones can be purchased at any Apothecary. Spruce up your old clothes by buying the latest in Slimmifying Robes! (courtesy of Madame Malkins, located in Diagon Alley)."

Giving Rylie the dryest look he could muster, he concluded, "Well, that was informative. I think we should throw it into the fire for the betterment of humanity. What do you say, onward?"

'No.... really?' Rylie thought in disbelief. Sebastian was actually giving her the FACE. Well one of his many faces, but this was the face that meant he was actually going to do what she asked! Sebastian Rivera was going to risk humiliation in front of his claw peers (should the enter the room) to read to her.

What a moment they were sharing, honestly.
She held back her laughter as best she could while Sebby began reading in some frightening mixture of a mocking and a monotone voice. How was that even possible? He just got more fascinating each day it seemed.

"This book is the betterment of humanity, obviously. It's best if we continue," Rylie replied and slid the book so it was more in her lap than his.

Before she continued reading, she grinned at him and winked.

"You know you're learning sooooo much," she said and continued with the list, "Number Three: Don't be afraid to show the true witch within! Don't try and impress him with incantations if charmwork isn't your forte. Play to your strengths, and know what makes you magical."

Rylie resisted the urge to roll her eyes and sighed to calm her giggles. She stared at Sebby for a moment and cocked her head to the side.

"I'm sure this applies to men trying to impress girls as well. You aren't er... having trouble then, are you?"

If he tried to run, she'd stop him... somehow. Awkwardness wasn't an excuse to leave in her book.

Oh hur hur. Sebastian attempted to up his 'dry look' a few notches before deciding it couldn't be done. And he was very reluctant to read anymore after this. Because, well, really. If they were going to try to apply the thing...

"You know what, if I need to learn how to, um..." he peered over at the book, "...'hint at my affections without coming on too strongly'. Well! I'll know just what to consult."

Sebastian grinned slightly and edged away from the book, giving it a pointed look.

"But, um. Honestly. We should probably stop." He added seriously, managing to look concerned for humanity's betterment, as well as his own.
