Before he went to select his own, "I was thinking the old faithful, age before beauty... Oh, I guess that means you'd have to go after me then," Not that he had to tell her, right? But he did anyway. (Likely missing a reference as well).

Curtis didn't take much time selecting the shruken head, instead picking up the first one that didn't feel heavy. "So what else are you skilled at, besides looking good?" He already knew of their mutual interest of the environment topic. He was new to this dating deal, but he at least wanted to know more about her.
More and more he was showing just how befitting the name Fuller was. The greater part of her wanted to roll her eyes at him...and yet the sliver of her that won out was mildly delighted and even enticed. She couldn't even deflect her interest as being influenced by Autumn this time, which was perhaps the more (privately) humiliating aspect of this for Sadie.

"....age before beauty...right..." she replied with an arched brow. If he was worried about losing to a game of Stone Cloak Wand and having his ego bruised prematurely, she supposed she could let him sidestep this preliminary competition. "Sure, old man. Try not to throw your back out already." She then, promptly, covered the mouth of her shrunken head who had a few things to say about the topic. Now was just...not the time for such banter.

Stepping forward, Sadie did give the floor a quick couple of steps to make sure her shoes were not too slippery against it and that there was enough traction to them before gesturing for Curtis to take his best shot.

...which, well, those words were a shot though not the one she had been anticipating.

"...oh please," she replied, this time rolling her eyes. "Don't compare my accomplishments and effort to my physical appearance." It also was pointing out how she had actually made effort and that in itself was a little embarrassing to admit to since it was not exactly a part of her usual routine. Skin care, yes. Makeup and all the other bells and whistles that came with this new and mostly uncharted territory...not so much. "But...to actually answer your question, kickboxing. Participating in tournaments is how I used to spend my summers before university started and I needed to devote more time to my academics. Now it's a bit more...casual a pastime." And a quick way to earn an extra galleon in a pinch. "...and herbology. Not just because my pre-healer emphasis on magical pharmaceuticals but...because I genuinely like flora. Suppose splicing and creating hybrids is a bit of a hobby as well. That's why you see me in Noltie's so much, just so you know."

And not because of any other particular reason.

"What about you, likes..dislikes...skills? Besides horrendous come-ons, missing shirt buttons, and procrastination against inevitable defeat, I mean."
