Withholding information was different from lying, after all. "You've never tried Acid Pops before?" he asked with a tiny smirk. He, of course, had and the first time may have been part of a game he and Aries made up with lollipops mixed in with Acid Pops. Whoever found the Acid Pop first won...or lost...all depended on how you looked at it. "And..." pauses his sketch work to lean over towards her a bit and wiggle his eyebrows triumphantly. "...does this mean you surrender?"
And then, got extra good measure, he did the tongue thing. Which made him feel like a lizard. Sort of. Maybe it would have been better if he hadn't wiggled it a bit.
And his tongue wiggling apparently was a no-go because she was scooting away from him. There were unspoken rules to tongue-sticking-outing, apparently. Pausing a moment to glance at the little gap between them now, he decided not to pay too much mind to it and instead finished up his sketch so he could start on the paint. "Uh...yeah. It's easiest to create symmetry and balance with three...or maybe I could do a pyramid," he considered while stroking his square jawline with the index finger and thumb of his left hand. Had Remy noticed how square and distinct his jawline was? He was seriously disappointed that more people were not admiring it. "That is good though. Means they compliment each other rather than mimic." And THAT was an important distinction for one Atlas Leonel Flamsteed. His posture straightened a bit and he blinked a few times at all of the PINK glitter that...he was not sure what to do with. He had not exactly decided upon his flavors yet either, though he did have a pyramid of ice cream scoops now. Maybe the pink to be the strawberry for the peanut butter and jelly scoop. Which meant he needed to mix himself a peanut butter looking brown right now. "Thanks," he smiled while taking the glitter from her and setting it beside his bag. And then it was head down and getting to work.
WAS HE JOKING???
On two points. “
One… of course I have tried Acid Pops before… c’mon, Atlas, I’m no amateur… two…” Remy worked out the sweets packaging and made no hesitation in popping a WHOLE candy piece directly into her mouth. Her expression started with utter triumph, held in a sort of frozen stance as the sweet sat on her tongue. She narrowed her eyes a little as she braved a tiny bite and that was it…
*________*
She had managed to hold it for approximately 7 seconds before sticking out her tongue, her now famous expression, and letting the sweet drop to the ground. “
Eeggggggggghhhh!!” Wow, muggles we’re more hardcore with their sour sweets than she had expected.
“
Yes, precisely.” She turned to smile brightly, then deciding to let Atlas do whatever he wished to do with his tote bag, as long as they were both doing ice creams then they still matched. That being said, Remy started to focus harder on her creation, leaving a pause of creative silence between them. After finishing up with the first flavour, she drew another scoop ready for her second favourite. Cookies and Cauldron Cakes. “
Mmmm… this is making me hungry. Wanna go to Floreans after this?” Remy glanced back to him.
