Sophie didn't realize he was putting his wand away until she had started talking, but she acted as if she didn't notice. Seemed like a jumpy sort of fellow, though. She'd keep an eye on him and felt to make sure her own wand was in her holster in case he turned on her or something. And of course it was.

"I didn't doooo anything, exactly. I wrote a note, poking a little fun at him, then I slid it under his office door and ran away. Pretty sure he was in there, so I had to get outta there fast so he didn't know it was me. Bet he did, though, 'cause I don't think most other students have the guts to tease him, but I wanted to get outta there before he came out and got me." Hehehehe. Even though her teasing in the note had been harmless, she wouldn't put it past Fuller to hunt her down and make her spend the rest of the day with the effects of Tarantallegra or Rictusempra on her, though, so she took a moment to pause and listen for footsteps, just in case.

She seemed to be okay.

But the boy was still looking at her funny, so she shook her head and reassured him, "Fuller told me Tobes and I - um, Tobias Tempus? -" in case he knew him, "are his favorites. For really, for real. I didn't go hurt him or anything." She was a big ol' tease, not a bully.
Oh. A note. That wasn't that suspicious. Do cold ones even write? Can they even speak English?

But did she really leave him just a note? Likely story, cold one. But Zander's got you all figured out. Sort of. Either way he wasn't going to let his guard down just yet. Had to do some investigating that's all. Just scope out the story and see if she really was just a student. But he couldn't let her know that he was investigating. Because if she really was a cold one she'd see that and put on her shield of lies. Maybe that's what their protective armor was made of? Lies. Eh, seemed plausible. So, instead of raising his eyebrows again, he attempted a laugh. Because that note thing, if it really was a thing, was kind of funny right? Except his laugh totally sounded forced and not natural and ahem, oops. Casually turning it into a cough instead the boy decided to speak before he made things even worse, "What did they note say?"

..... So evidently one History of Magic lesson does not make you a good actor. Note taken.

Hmm she was still sticking with the story. Maybe she wasn't lying after all. But wait, he had never heard of this Tobias Tempus character. WHO was he? Or what, if she was talking about one of her other cold one friends. WAS HE IN THE CASTLE TOO? Or worse, was he on his way to the trophy room? What if this was an ambush!? But he's only fourteen. Spare his life. He's got to finish that divination homework before he dies, can't let Professor Morgan think he bailed. And then, he had to confess his love for Beautiful Bentley. She must know why he was all weird last time they talked. Make amends with the evil Zahra, eh maybe not that one. But STILL. He had so much to do and so little time.

Wait. O__o He was totally getting ahead of himself here. He probably wasn't in any immediate danger... And if he was... He'd be thinking of an escape plan in the meantime. "I-I don't think I've met you before," Even more of a reason why she'd be a cold one. MHM. But nope, clean slate. No suspicion. Okay a little. "I'm Adair." WAIT, THAT'S NOT RIGHT. "I mean, I'm Zander. What I meant is... I'm uh, Zander Adair." Oops. All this cold one talk was making him nervous. But this way, if she was a cold one and she did freeze his heart, then everyone would know his name and what a brave soldier he was.
