Soleus narrowed his eyes a fraction, tilting his head to one side. "Why?" He questioned harshly, "What did I do?", acting innocent.

"Don't act stupid," she snapped a little, "I don't need to take your condescension & high-and-mighty attitude then come talking to you whenever you want answers." She inwardly hated the idea of shutting another person out of another part of her life but she wasn't going to weaken herself in appearance by taking all of the abuse Soleus had to say for Brent & then still come to him with conversation.

Soleus pushed his bottom lip out from where he was holding it behind his teeth, almost pouting a little. "Fine." He said quietly, realising there wasn't much point in arguing with her. He swallowed quietly, and continued, "Didn't realise you cared so much." He was looking down a little.

"Soleus, you're sixteen years old, do not try pouting at me." she was growing frustrated, it was obvious in the way that her tone seemed to be growing more tired. "Did you not see the, to quote you, 'adorable' children out front?" she reminded him, "Do you really think that giving me that look is going to change anything?"

Soleus' expression fell, and he shook his head, looking younger than normal. It was odd really, that he was actually disappointed to lose the conversation between them because he was starting to enjoy spending time with her more, even the miserable attempt at defeating boggarts last week, but he knew like everything it wouldn't last forever. He bit the inside of his cheek, feeling like a scolded child. "No. Sorry." He said quietly, and then kind of frowned at himself, wondering where his apology had come from, it wasn't really like him to give in so easily. He made a mental note to stop turning soft, and blamed Ashley.

She felt something harden in her chest at his voice, his expression. It hurt her to hurt him, but knowing he'd think twice about getting emotional with her made her feel a little better. It'd be better for both of them.
"Here." she fished in her pockets for a moment & handed him a sharp-shaped vial, the liquid-gas inside of it swirling around, white-silver. "It was just sitting in my pensive & I figured it might help with the boggart." It was no secret that she didn't carry her more sentimental memories around with her. Her pensive was filled with a combination of things she didn't want to forget and things that she didn't want to remember.
ooc. messaged you!

Soleus jumped off the counter heavily, and took a step forward, taking the small vial surprisingly delicately. He held it up to the candlelight from the candelabra in the center of the expansive kitchen, watching the contents moving. He took one last glance, a little mesmerized by it, and tucked it inside his pocket. He stayed facing the center of the room, wondering what memories of Tiffany's that they had shared would no longer be swimming around in her head, but confined to the magical basin instead. He put his hands both in his pockets, his left one curling into a safe fist to house the vial, not wanting to lose it or break it, something that he felt he may do accidentally and foolishly and regret for a while. Although he wasn't technically seeing into Tiffany's head- he knew that that would never be the case- he treasured the idea of her letting him have a small part of it. He eventually turned back to her, his lips pressed into a serious line, his emotions mixed and making him feel strangely sentimental. "Thanks." Was all he managed to mumble out.

She locked eyes with him for a long moment before clearing her throat, face going expressionless again as she went about putting the jar away again.
"You're travelling with Rowle & Yaxely this week." she told him, though she was sure he already knew - it was more of a reminder, than anything. "Illsa with be with you, so keep red meat on hand." she sounded distracted, busying herself with the cupboard contents instead. "And don't feed her the night before you attack. She'll be more aggressive." she shut the cupboard a little too roughly, going quiet for a moment. Brent & the hyena were two of her four defenses when she was in the manor alone. The idea of them not being there with her made her feel even more on edge than usual.

Soleus rolled his eyes, letting out a dramatic sigh. "Don't remind me. Lover boys and their pet." He said, a smirk playing on his lips, trying his best to make the conversation less serious. "Yesterday Rowle peeled and sliced an apple then took it upstairs to share with your fiancee." He said, his tone amused. He looked slightly annoyed at the mention of the hyena, not really a fan, and generally disliking anything that Brent was fond of. He batted his hand, as if to say that he wasn't having anything to do with the animal.

"He really doesn't eat enough fruit, anyway -" Realizing how painfully domestic that sounded, she stopped dead & gave him an odd look, though the oddness was clearly directed at herself. She looked like she was questioning who had just said that, because it clearly couldn't have been her. She backtracked, trying to make herself sound less ridiculous, suddenly embarrassed.
"I mean, what with da- our father having a scurvy run-in a few years back, can't be too careful."

Soleus returned her odd look, a smirk creeping across his features while he watched her squirm. It was true, watching people squirm was one of Soleus' favourite things to do, even when it was his sister, along as it wasn't too serious. Perhaps it's what he got from his mother.
"Well you better hope he doesn't drop dead of scurvy." Soleus said, an eyebrow cocked, enjoying the idea of how ironic that really would be. "That really would be unfortunate." He picked his nails absent-mindedly, his face calmer. "Wonder if they'd blame you if he did? For being a shitty fiancee or whatever." He joked, hoping she didn't take him too seriously.

"Well obviously they couldn't blame Rowle, he's trying so hard to keep him in good health."
There. A joke. Her lip twitched a little but other than that, there was no real sign of life. Whenever she started getting close again, something always drew her back.

Soleus smirked, enjoying the moment between them. "I've decided I'm not sleeping anywhere near them, and your adorable kitten." He rolled his eyes a fraction, a smirk still happily sat on his lips. "I'll get my own tent."
would they have tents? like amazing magical ones like the one from the quidditch world cup? it sounds cute and outdoorsy. kinda like boy scouts. hahahah

She rolled her eyes with a snort.
"Hyenas aren't cats, Soleus, they're their own evolutionary group." she shook her head, "Do you even go to your classes?" her tone was surprisingly light, unlike her normal dead tone.
"Sounds subtle." she quirked an eyebrow, wondering if he was totally serious - though she wouldn't put it past him.
ooc. they'd stay up all night telling ghost stories around the fire and learning to do different knots

Soleus smirked a little, and made a little scoffing noise. "Yeah, right." He said, cocking an eyebrow. "'Cos I have so much time to do that between sleeping and eating."
Soleus nodded, an amused look still put on his face. "I am fucking subtle, Tiffany. Always." He said sarcastically. He then stretched, and scratched the back of his neck, yawning.
