 Bathes in Maple Syrup | Dancing Lobster | Mrs. Charlie Weasley | Seneca's Beard | That's So Fetch
Now that he wasn't speaking, Dante noticed that the department head's smile wasn't nearly was wide as it had been just moments ago. For a moment he thought that he had said something he shouldn't have, but that idea was set aside in his mind. He stuck to the facts about his accomplishments and his qualifications and that was that. So what was...
Really? That was what Llewellyn was going to prioritize right now? A piece of candy? Eliora would never.
Though internally he was judging the woman and her apparent need to get her priorities sorted out, outwardly the man maintained a rather calm appearance. "My apologies, mademoiselle," he quickly replied, sparing her the reason why he hadn't popped the sweet in his mouth to begin with. His reason was now void. She wanted him to eat it right in front of her, so that was what he was going to do. If anything, it would butter her up again. Whether the smile went back to normal or not would tell as much.
Setting his cup of coffee down temporarily, he tugged on the ends of the wrapper to reveal the piece of candy within. With one swift movement, the candy was placed inside his mouth, right as a whispy silver dog bolted in the room and the woman shrieked. Dante was a bit taken aback by her response to it, but he quietly chewed as he observed the woman react to the Patronus and the voice of Conley Phora. The sigh did not go unnoticed as he swallowed the sweet.
"It's quite delicious," the Obliviator told her with a smile, not bothering to ask if he should come back later since she didn't seem all that concerned about addressing Phora's message that very instant.
