~ Rise and Rise Again, Until Lambs become Lions ~ Sabel's eyes grew a little wider as Josh suddenly seemed to come back alive. And then, despite the desperation in the boy's eyes, the fear on Evelyn's face and the dead serious line of Lafay's lips, it was a great deal of effort to keep from laughing. It would be rude to laugh, yes? Yes.
Slouching a little in his chair, he raised his hand to cover his mouth, focusing his attention for a moment on the grain of the desk to try and calm himself. It was like they were in a Shakespearean acting class and the walls were falling down. He wanted to tell Josh to calm down when he chanced a glance back over at the trio, that Lafay wouldn't hurt Evelyn, but there was a lesson in this and he was learning how to keep his mouth shut when it wasn't appropriate to speak. May as well make the effort now.
He did however glance over at Jake, a slight frown covering his amusement for a moment at the more serious tale of truth. Needless to say, potions was not a dull subject.
