It was just a trade, although Selina's answers were the ones going into her homework.
So only sort of a fair trade.
"Ground rules, then." Vivi poured the cocoa into the cap of the bottle and offered it to Selina. "I will only ask one question, but I get unlimited follow up questions if they're related. You get the same. Agreed?" Somehow it was less embarrassing if she just made it very professional.
Fair play? What did that mean? Were they going to play a game. Merlin! Selina knew she should have left the bowler hat in the room. What if it got ruined? Then she would have been very much at a loss for a bowler hat and if her grade in Transfiguration was any indication she only had ONE bowler hat.
Oh. Right. Vivi was going to take the potion as well. Honestly, that made Selina feel a lot better. The idea of being alone in taking the truth serum made her want to use the ladies room. It was not that Selina had a lot of secrets,
which she did, it was more that she just wasn't so into being on display like this. But if Vivi was going to do it as well... that was better.
And her rules sounded fair as well,
"Agreed. Just... you know... this stays between us and the homework... okay?" There were things that the redhead did not want people to know.
