"Promises are pesky, little things," Jared grinned and, even though he noticed that she had said she'd try not to throw him out, he inclined his head ever so slightly, his way of saying, almost jestingly, that her statement put him at ease. It should be easier to learn something if he did not have to worry about his life. Then again, being in the presence of danger had not hindered his progress in the past. He dismissed the thoughts, choosing to think of something pleasanter, easier. Like the actual conversation. "But I think we've talked enough about Divination, for tonight. Even a professor of the subject must have other interests."
Indirectly, he had not only asked her about her interests but steered the conversation to a different topic, and he had a feeling she'd know that as well as he did.
Renée had caught the sense of confidence Jared had displayed in his response to her, as regarded hypothetical trips to France. Seeing as the one they were discussing was actually still hypothetical. She wasn't lying, though, when she'd expressed interest in visiting again. Just because she hadn't been for over seven years now didn't make that false. She smiled, however, at the statements. "Of course. And I appreciate your faith that it'll be interesting," she replied. And that word could have so many different meanings, really, and that only made her resolve to try and figure out a way to go stronger. But then, she wasn't one to suggest things lightly.
"That they can be," she said with a little laugh as he responded to her promising not to throw him out of the tower. Or try not to, as her words actually had been. She was finding she thougth she preferred him at ease more than otherwise, even though he hadn't seemed too on edge around her. Except for maybe at first when she knew he'd noticed her mental prodding. She'd idly kept it up, but it was getting to the point she didn't really think it necessary. She did think his thoughts were fascinating, however. Even as it seemed he knew he needed to channel them in different directions, which earned the slightest raise of an eyebrow.
She shrugged in response to his change of topic, though. "Of course. Layers are so much more interesting on a person than being one-dimensional. I'd imagine you have more interests than Charms as well. Well, and manticores,' she added with another laugh. The animal certainly had been in his thoughts quite a bit. But she was going to make him work a bit harder to figure her out.
