Adeline could swear her heart was racing a bit from the excitement, her face still very red, glancing up at him from under her lashes as he said he was learning fast. Oh, she was in trouble with him. Was there really anything about him that didn't make her feel like she had butterflies? But thankful...

The inside of the store was fairly organized, though that seemed to be because of the Ravenclaw student, Mera, who was currently walking around sorting out the shelves. She threw Nigel a somewhat disparaging look, though that seemed to be par for the course for her, before looking back towards what ...

Addie laughed softly at his saying he'd make sure people knew she was the culprit, "Alas, most people would immediately go 'Ah, that makes sense' if they knew it was me," she said with another laugh, shaking her head. She was a bit more resigned in her smile as he said, "especially no...

Addie gave a little snort at his saying paint on his clothes would improve his wardrobe, "I doubt your wardrobe needs glitter in it. Might have someone thinking you've got a child," she laughed again. His comment about her being a mess not bothering him did earn another blush, before she s...

She would say he was making her feel like a schoolgirl all over again, but she hadn't exactly felt anything like this while she was a schoolgirl. Sure, she'd had a crush or two, but in just this one conversation, he'd sent her through the most amount of emotions she'd felt in a long time. Positive o...

Addie looked a bit surprised at the coverage, though there was a part that seemed to have guessed. Even still, she had undershot her estimation. She gave a small laugh at the part about it sucking in some places. "I would have bet money on that," she said, nodding. The few she had were min...

Addie smiled as she listened to him talk about how he and his friend worked together on his tattoos. Hearing that there were things behind them all made her that much more curious. "That sounds like it was fun and probably cathartic," she said softly, more than understanding that. "Ca...

Addie smiled as he talked about his tattoos feeling a lot more honest, "Did you design them yourself?" she asked curiously, clearly a bit of the artist side of her curious about his style and creative process. She listened attentively, like she usually did, and a part of her... envied... h...

When V said he rather expected her life to turn out about how it had, she gave a shrug with a smile, clearly fine with how the dice had rolled for her. His reaction to the tea caused her to giggle a bit, "Isn't it? It's just something with the flower used in the tea. I learned about it when I w...

Roland gave a nod, "Right away, monsieur," he said, turning to start making their order. Addie laughed softly at his comments, giving a bit of a shrug at his part about turning her accidents into something real, "Well, I've only been back a few years myself," she said, "Like...

Seeing his positive responses only seemed to encourage her more. When he told her not to sell her the whole shop, she tossed a "Pretty sure I've bought most everything in here at least once by now," over her shoulder as she went toward the counter with a laugh. When he joined her, her face...

Adeline laughed a little at his question about organization, "It was kind of haphazard, but I had a student staying with me for a while that helped me organize it in a way that students can follow," she shrugged a little, as if she just didn't get it. How he responded when she talked about...

The second V smiled, all the nervousness Adeline had evaporated. Not only was she right, but he was happy to see her. Even better! She laughed with delight at his comment that the purple one was his favorite. "I much prefer to make things prettier than to hide them away," she said, as if i...

It had been a bit of time since Adeline had been in Diagon Alley herself, having been running her shop in Hogsmeade, but even she had things she had to come and buy. It was always like going on a little adventure, though she wouldn't know how to do so discreetly if it bit her. She was looking for su...

Adeline smiled softly as she worked through the little inspirations that came to her, nodding enthusiastically. "That's the best kind of feeling, finding the little nuggets that come crawling to the surface," she clapped her hands together, "Take your time finding whatever you need an...

Adeline smiled softly as she watched Missy when they reached the boxes, but when she asked her question, she hummed a little, "Well, for me, my art usually stems from right here," she tapped her chest over her heart, "I know it seems silly, but when you just embrace whatever you're fe...

Adeline jumped a little in surprise, giving a little laugh at herself for getting distracted before looking at Missy. She gave a hum of thought at what Missy presented her, "I totally get that, I've seen all kind of ways to commemorate our lost loved ones around the world," she smiled soft...

Nigel! I can’t believe I’ve been here for four years and did not realize you were at the school! I only found out recently because I heard from a student that you’re the Transfiguration professor! Somehow that class seems fitting considering. I don’t know if you know this, but I’ve set up shop here ...

Adeline sat up abruptly in her bed, gasping. Remembering where she actually was, she let out a sigh of relief and ran a hand over her face. She realized she was covered in sweat and looked at her hand before starting to get up from the bed. According to the clock on the wall, it was only about 2 in ...

When Nigel mentioned pigments of paints that could be used to make invisibility cloaks, Adeline's eyes lit up, "Oh, oh, oh!" she said, clearly having an idea already of what to try, or write down at least, "I've got something I want to see with my paints now that you've mentioned it. ...

As Nigel nodded in response to her question, she grinned as well, " You're right!" she said before quickly packing up her things, not wanting to test their luck with staying in Snape's presence longer than he cared for them to be, "I have some ideas," Adeline said to his question...

Snape looked at him with his usual disparaging expression as he listened to his proposal, raising a brow as he finished. The silence as he considered it seemed to stretch on for ages and Adeline slowly raised her eyes to look up at Snape rather than looking at the cauldron. Since he hadn't answered ...

Adeline had looked rather impressed when he brought up the facts about lead-, zinc-, and titanium-based whites. She hadn't expected him to know things about paints, but she had smiled brightly knowing that he did know some. His comment about Snape being better than Sigma, "I don't know if I thi...

Adeline thought about the question for a moment, "You might be right, " she said, "That would explain why my mother got rather angry at me for using some of them in the past," she hummed a bit in thought, "But they made the texture and color so pretty," she pouted at th...

Not wanting to get them in further trouble or lose the house more points, she was sticking to the recipe this time, an easy enough task to do- boring really, but she'd had enough fun for the time being. Best not to make matters worse for now. She was sure Snape was going to find some reason to get h...
