If he had said that he didn't think she'd do it, he wouldn't have eyebrows tomorrow. For definite. "I'm only joking anyway. I don't dislike Gem that much." Besides, cutting off Gem's legs would probably result in the cat's final hours. A cat couldn't survive that, yeah? No. The seventh year lifted his fingers to Elodie's eyebrows, pushing at them, trying to make them less like a scowl and more happy looking. He wasn't so sure he'd succeeded.

Coul shook his head. He didn't want to study anymore. Nope. He probably wasn't really anywhere near ready for his NEWTS but he'd rather not spend any more time on them for the next hour. Day. Week. Whatever. "You don't have to. I could do it. You've gone and made me a binder. That's help enough." Lots of nods and maybe even a cheek kiss for Elodie. "I've been studying for...." he checked his invisible watch "Long enough."

Sigh. No. "Not a bad girlfriend. I just told him... stuff... and to keep an eye on you if he saw you around... That's all..." He ran his fingers in the dirt, a frown playing on his lips. She wasn't a bad girlfriend and he hated it when she said that. So he pushed some dirt around with his finger, wondering if Scout was gonna show up and distract Els. And him. He could distract him too.
He did have a point.. Elodie shrugged her shoulders though to make it seem like she was pondering it and considering it in all of its glory. "Your face is mildly acceptable. I wouldn't say pretty." She would though. It was better than pretty. Sometimes she wanted to just admire his face and touch it to make sure it was real and that all of this was real. Was life real? Was she really dating him? Was he an angel? Was this all a dream? WHAT WAS REAL IN THE WORLD?! "I'd probably have to cut your legs off too if you did it..." Because Gem was one of the most important thinge ever to her, and he needed his legs no matter what Coul thought or said or HMPF. She grabbed at his hands and pulled them away from her face because quit iiiit, Coulson!! She didn't need to be face felt.

Shuffling forward, Els pulled on his laces so hard that they undid, and she started to make them into mega prettier bows as she watched him. "I can help. I don't mind. It...gives me something to do." And it meant she could watch him for long periods of time with a purpose and not cry about him from afar. Seeing him might even stop the hiding under her bed and crying too. "Long enough...meaning you didn't even try." She knew him too well. And he definitely needed to study.

Elodie wanted to tell him she need to be kept an eye on. But she knew that she probably did, given all things in total. She was more stressed out now than she had been...probably ever, and although she wasn't doing the same things she had before..it was probably borderline breakdown material. It was only a matter of time. "Gemini thinks you're silly for wanting Scout to keep an eye on me." Back to using Gem's name for herself.
