There was a solid moment where it looked like CJ might just accept his fate and live out the rest of his life in that deeply unfortunate stance. He didn't — but getting out of it was… a process. With a careful shuffle and a subtle wince he absolutely tried to play off, he untangled himself back into something resembling a normal, upright human being.

"Yep — no, we're good," he assured, mostly to himself, giving one last micro-adjustment of his foot.

His attention snapped right back to her the second she answered, his expression lighting up like nothing had even happened.

"Lemondrop," he echoed, nodding like he was processing something complex. "Sounds… lemon-y." He looked a little more intently at her ice cream. "That's an interesting combo," he added, glancing between the two scoops like there was a system he was trying to crack. "I usually go cookie dough and, like, fudge brownie. Keep it in the — " e made a vague circling motion with one hand, "— same food family."

He paused, reconsidering, then gave a small, decisive nod.

"I don't really trust fruit in ice cream," he admitted. "Feels… cold. Which — yeah, I know — that's the point, but still. Strawberry gets a pass though."

His gaze flicked back up to her face, grin sliding back into place like it lived there.

"Gosh, I forgot I came in here for a sweet treat," he said, shaking his head lightly before tipping it just a little. "Guess I traded one for another."

Hey OH! Cue a shameless wink to boot.

Shifting his weight again, he hooked his thumbs briefly into the straps of his crossbody and rolled back on to his heels.

"I'm CJ," he added easily. "Transferring in from Ilvermorny this coming school year." His eyes flicked briefly to the faint smudge on her nose before he very politely did not comment on it ― at least for the time being.
