Smiling faintly as she chose to refer to herself as he had - "certain person" and all - he had to ask, "Does that mean the opportune time does not look like dinner?" For future reference. "Or does that mean," he added, the grin returning, "That that certain person has secretly decided not to give teaching me that particular subject a try, after all?" Knowing Renée, he doubted that; but even then, he could not keep the faint hint of an amused sort of challenge out of his tones.
"I'm afraid I haven't had the same, first-hand experience of Hogwarts during holidays." Though there had been some mentions that he remembered. Even then, spells that responded to particular names seemed like a nice, if not terrific, change, Jared thought as the order materialized. "Another topic that certain person seems to know more about, than I do," he added lazily, the green eyes seeming amused all over again.
The very reaction her teasing comment had received amused Renée highly, and the grin that appeared on her face didn't hide that one bit. "Flattered that even a hypothetical list would be made," she replied mischievously. She knew he was amused by the thought she'd truly taken things to mean he actually had a list of the comebacks she created. She wasn't that naïve, to say the least. She'd let him have the thought, however, because it was still fun to feel like she could get him to relax and be amused like this. Him thinking she was that literal at least for now didn't bother her in the long run, and actually only gave her more openings to surprise him later.
But then their conversation had gone to the long-standing challenge of Divination and teaching him, and she chose to murmur her order to her plate before replying. She didn't want to get too distracted and forget what she'd finally decided on for her meal, at least. Once that was taken care of, she looked back up at him with another smile. "Dinner is only an opportune time if we were discussing food-based divination," she pointed out, before laughing at the renewed challenge. "You're deceived if you even entertain the thought she'd back down that easily." It was oddly amusing referring to herself in the third person, especially when that was as oblique as it was turning out to be. He'd been the first to do so, however, so she was willing to keep the charade up.
"I haven't forgotten," she said lightly, glancing down as she noticed her food had appeared as the menu had told. She hadn't exactly been trying to emphasize differences, or prove her knowledge. It had just been an idle comment, and she smiled as he spoke lazily. Picking up the first bit of ood from her plate, she regarded him for a moment. "I'd imagine that certain person could say there are some thing you know better as well," she responded, before applying herself to the first bite. The food was definitely better than she'd expected, but then the entire night was quite nice. Unexpected, really.
