Not that she’d tell him she only started to care because she wanted to see if he’d notice her.

She listened to him behind her as she examined the VCR box, double checking the tape multiple times to make sure she was putting it in the right way, before carefully inserting it into the indicated slot in her notes and giving it a gentle push. There was no loud beeping or crunching noises of something being destroyed, and it seemed to accept it so… so far so good? At his question, she turned the movie box over in her hand to look at the hair before turning back to Logan, scrunching up her face as if she was actually considering it. “Hmm. No, I don’t think it’d suit you. I like the way you wear your hair now.” She was going to turn back to the task at hand, but hadn’t yet done so when he asked his next question - which certainly caused her face to burn a bit hotter. Had she been making this a little bit too much like a date ~~which she had totally been calling it in her head~~? And maybe it wasn’t as welcomed as her brother had made her believe it would be? She eyed him curiously for a moment trying to decide if she was going to match the teasing tone or just… see what happened if she didn’t. “Maybe it is.” She settled on with a smile, no tease to her own tone before she turned back again to the machine.

Once he joined her at the machine, she glanced at the button he indicated before nodding her head once in agreement. That sounded about right to her. Reaching out, she tentatively pressed the indicated button - which was kind of an oddly placed triangle of sorts - and held her breath while waiting to see if any calamity followed.

The flush of her face was something that he happened to notice. It was something that he didn't point out to her though, which he probably would have years prior, as the sight was satisfactory enough. Not that it was his goal all along to make her face do that. He was merely stating the facts, and he knew he had a part in influencing her one way or another. "Whatever you need to tell yourself." He too had to return the eye rolling now, the art of which he had easily mastered being around the Queen of Eye Rolls so much. "But thank you. I'm glad we both can acknowledge my looks too."

A laugh sounded when he managed to catch sight of Vera's scrunched-up face while she looked a the movie box and considered whether or not he should make his hair look like the man's. While he was gradually getting longer, he would have to agree that particular style was probably not a good look for him. His brow did raise when she admitted to liking his hair. His mouth opened to give a witty response, though he was caught off guard by her next set of words. The blond didn't say anything, but he did return her smile with one of his own. He had no complaints.

He watched as she pressed hold of the button and held his breath, waiting to see what would happen. He assumed it would function as it should have, but there was a slim chance that it could set on fire or something. He had heard of Muggle things doing that sometimes. Suddenly hearing singing, his head turned toward the screen. A look of puzzlement appeared on his face as names started scrolling upward against a black background. It wasn't normal for movies to start like this, right?

"I, uhh, think we needed to rewind it first?" Scooting closer to Vera and the machine, Logan's fingers hovered over the buttons for a moment. He couldn't recall if they were to push the rewind or stop button first. He settled on rewind since that was what needed to happen. A glance over to the screen, he couldn't hear anything but noticed the credits whizzing downward and what he assumed was the final scene of the movie playing backwards. He blinked. That didn't seem right.
