Not that he minded. He was incredibly amused by her response.

And a bit confused too, to be honest. Because it didn't exactly answer his question. It wasn't really a "yes" or a "no," but somehow something...in the middle? Or neither? Then again, if she didn't want him to flirt with her, he was sure she would've given him a straightforward no and wouldn't have almost kissed him. For a split second, he had thought she was going to. But it was only almost, so...it still didn't feel like an admission of yes either???

Yeah, definitely confused. Amused and confused.

The smile returned again once she'd released his face. "i suppose that's fair," he said, leaning towards her just a little bit and lowering his voice. Not to a whisper, but just a bit quieter than a normal outside voice, so only she could hear. "a little mystery is fun too." and he added a wink of his own.

It was strategy, Lio, and strategy constructed from inexperience was messy and nonsensical. She would not be admitting to the latter of that, however, and would much rather find herself coy than confusing or convoluted. One thing Sadie was good for was sharing her opinion when she had one and not being subtle about it...SO.

She had always figured Lio to be the more timid and reserved sort, so perhaps her real aim here had been to ruffle his feathers, so his maneuver of parroting her own physical actions took her aback slightly and the tactic of lowering his voice so she had to lean in to hear him made her want to do the complete opposite. She compromised, with herself, and stayed in place much to her own amusement. "Came to the right place then," she mused and swung her head towards the cart. "...so are you going to buy me a butterbeer or was I just invited here to enjoy the scenery?"

Cant buy stuff for one and not the other.

The blonde theia was rocking back and forth on her feet. This was normally her behavior when getting a new plushie for her horde in her room. But on this occasion it was shopping for school. She was finally going to be joining maggie at hogwarts.

It only took forever.

They had stopped for something to drink and it was mostly theia's fault for wanting butterbeer. Bugging both her mum and her dad and eventually one had been worn down from all the whining.

"can we get my books soon please please please. We can go whenever calliope wants after that!"

theia bargained. Look at her trying to negotiate. Growing up so fast. She still needed her wand and had forgotten about that important item. To the blonde eleven year old the most important item right now was the butterbeer

How was it that her first baby was this grown up already and heading off to school? Gaia could hardly fathom it but did feel a certain sense of calm knowing that her daughter would be in good hands with one of her dear friends among the faculty. She just hoped that Dhruv was ready to endure the little army of stuffed animals Amatheia came with. And she knew her darling husband wanted to turn around and head back to the music shop, something Calliope would like as well since watching her sister shop for a school she could not go to yet was frustrating and even though they could afford it ... it would be a little silly to buy two of everything now when Calliope still had time before she would be off to boarding school.

Location pending. Potentially.

So, Nigel got a little kiss and Calliope one to her forehead before Gaia slipped her arm around her eldest daughter's to have a mommy-daughter kind of afternoon while the other two went off to test out every musical instrument together. Plus...she needed to give Amatheia a private orientation on the keychain she had made that was going to help her daughter and all the trunks she would needed to bring to school for all her stuff. "We can do things in whatever order you fancy," she cooed while giving her daughter's cheeks an affectionate squish between her palms. "Including picking up that extra trunk papà thinks is a little unnecessary."

He, truly, was one to talk. An entire trunk of hair supplies whenever they went on vacation - which was something else she was looking forward to in the immediate future. Another honeymoon with the husband. Honeymoons being an exclusive newlywed thing was such a social construct.
