Audrik nodded his head at Devon and almost smiled at him.
"Thanks," he offered while heading through the doorway.
"Don't feel too bad for the girl," he started. He had studied Legilimency for so long that he couldn't help but read people's minds without even realizing it.
He glanced back over his shoulder to where the girl had been, and frowned. Had she realized she'd been duped yet?
"So the sin continues, then," he muttered, eyes meeting Audrick's for only a second before he looked down the hall in front of them, "Did you know her?"
It was an honest inquiry. Devon had been attending Painswick for nearly four months now and still hadn't managed to meet many people. He had no idea how loose or tight the community of students was.
There was a small pause where all Devon could do was stare at Audrik while his mind worked to process the hidden meaning of his words.
Gifted, Devon noted. He was gifted in an art many wizards would never master as long as they lived. Legilimency had always fascinated Devon more than the other forms of magic; it left no secrets behind if used properly.
"So I suppose you find it easy to root around through peoples thoughts," it sounded more severe than he'd meant it, but Devon made no effort to apologize.

"She wasn't exactly a saint earning it..."

"She's been stealing her roommate's jewelry, making copies, and selling the originals. She's rather good at it. Transfiguration major."
