"This one sounds like it has enough loopholes to make both of us feel safe, however," he offered, a lazy little grin on his lips. He could think she'd refrain from throwing him out, she could know that she had only said she'd try. Not a bad deal.

Ah. Manticores. She had finally said it and, in doing so, confirmed at least one aspect of her personality. Jared bowed his head for a second, like a little child caught eating someone else's share of candy, but there was an amused, easygoing look in his eyes. "I do," he agreed. "Some of them being fantastically muggle, in fact."

Confidence was always intriguing to Renée. Especially when it was just there, not shoved in her face. It seemed she was lucky in that regard, then, as Jared, in all his new fascination for her, was seeming to not be the type to flaunt things. An odd similarity, it seemed, between them. Even if she was being a little more cavalier about her unspoken skills than he was. She still remembered that wall she'd hit at the beginning of their conversation. It bothered her less now, though. It was less of an issue.

She grinned at his lazy comment, however. "Loopholes are crazy like that. Next thing you know they'll be tripping us up," she replied with a shrug. She was much preferring the idea of a relaxed situation, over a tense, frustration-filled one. So as long as they continued thinking it was possible, things would roll along quite well. Even if she still thought the likelihood of her throwing him out was slim. The opening that she still had was comforting, in a way. And at least he didn't seem as odd as others at the table that she was choosing to not think of.

She hadn't even really thought of her facetious mention of the creature as an admission that she'd gotten into his head, but as he reacted she found herself laughing softly again. As if she'd been caught. Oh well. He was bound to find out at some point, as she imagined she wouldn't be able to keep it hidden forever. "Fantastically Muggle, you say?," she said as he answered her musing about interests. It seemed he was going to be just as forthcoming as she was on that matter. Give a little hint, then sit back and see what happened. It was always fun to see the reactions when people found out about her anyway.
