"Unpredictability is an amazing thing," he said. No guarantees meant possibilities, and possibilities meant risks. Her refusal to be forthcoming amused him, even felt refreshing. He had an entire year ahead of him to polish the acquaintance and that, the leisurely pace, suited him just fine. "I can't say I'd not expect it of a diviner." Did that make it predictable for her to be unpredictable? He had to smile.

Something else? Entirely? Jared had had his share of being had a crush on and could handle that kind of thing perfectly; but it had never occurred to him that a student might look at him in that light. Renée's statement, however, did cause him to think of the new nickname's literal meaning. It did not help that Rae had decided to add a 'too' at the end of her sentence.

"I... I'm sure it could," he said to the girl, choking on his juice and quickly looking around for a distraction.



Bingo! Distraction. "Here, let me." Jared beckoned the student closer, casting a nonverbal to fix her cheek. He had never thought of medical magic as one of his strengths, but the girl's injury had been a minor one. The action, though small, made him feel like he'd stepped on familiar ground once again. "Next time, go directly to Healer Moretti," he said, offering her a polite little smile. Little because he had decided that, as far as female students at Hogwarts are concerned, unpredictability is not an amazing thing. "Now, how did this happen?"

There. The perfect excuse not to meet Renée's all-knowing mischievous gaze, or Rae's feverish one.

Yeah. He'd convinced himself that Rae had a fever.

Poor girl.

All these other people in the way! Why did this girl have to bleed?

Glare at the bleeding one, then glare at the woman... Fine... She will be done then... For now..

"I see you are now busy.. I'll be looking forward to extra help.. There wont be distractions then." Glare one last time at the woman next to him... "I'll see you soon.... Le Prof Chaud." After adding a small smile then biting her lip a bit, she turned with a little swoosh of her wavy black hair back to the Slytherin table.

"Yes. Enjoy the rest of the evening, Miss Skye."

Le Professor Chaud?

Better than being called Ikea Garlic, at any rate.



Renée felt almost like she was being used as a distraction, now, but that hardly bothered her. The whole situation was amusing her to no end, especially coming after the earlier incident with the other students who had actually come to talk to her. Besides, Miss Skye's glares were a little unfounded really, considering Renée had very well understood they were due to a belief she had interrupted. Rae hardly could have known her original glance had told much more than the girl really thought. But she brought her attention back to Jared as he looked at her, another half-smile creeping onto her face at his words. "Of course," she said with a tiny shrug. "I can't say all diviners are completely unpredictable, though." But then, she only partially considered herself one. She was finding it advantageous that it seemed her mysteriousness was intriguing him. Meant more conversations, at least, and possibly without brunette seventh years with crushes on him interrupting.

Feeling she was doing more with her silence in the situation than when she was interjecting, she simply let the conversation continue. Faint smile still on her face as Jared seemed to get more uncomfortable as Miss Skye continued. The occasional glares the girl sent her way didn't bother her, as it almost inferred she was a threat. Although the one that had been sent the innocent bleeding girl had turned her expression more serious for a moment. That was really uncalled for, and she had shifted in her seat seconds before Jared had stepped in and healed the girl. Concerned look on her face as she quietly waited for the little Ravenclaw's answer to her fellow staff member's question, she merely raised an eyebrow as Miss Skye left with one last glare. There were better things to focus on than a schoolgirl crush, however amusing it still was..
