He saw the way she was looking at him, by the way. Enjoying the show, was she? It made him smirk and all but he wasn't going to mention it. Not when she was saying MUCH more interesting things. "You really know how to make me happy, don't you?" She had to know what he meant by that. Had to. It was RUBY.
Was Grayson glad to be the only one who hadn't seen anything in his crystal ball? Yeah! It was expected. What wasn't expected was the next bit about what exactly it was that she made up. LOOOOOOOOOL! MAN, Ruby really was something. "Clearly. Keep having those psychic thoughts, more of them might come true in the future." Again. Just saying.
Speaking of seeing things in the crystal ball, the Slytherin stared down into the depths of his before saying, "Mine's constantly misty. I thought I saw it changing before but nope. Nothing." Scowl.
"Gray, that is the only kind of studying I do." If it wasn't appealing then Ruby was having none of it. Far more her style to get someone else to do the work for her, and she'd just stick to what she was good at in return. Sooo she was more than happy to offer her inspirational study partner services. Any time he liked. What were
friends for?
It was a good thing he recognized her skills right? At this point she'd be surprised if he didn't, because she was good with the little things, the happy inducing things. Still...
"We're just getting started." There was more happiness to be had. The joys of friendship okay.
But they were down to business now. Serious business. Divination business. Ruby put her serious face on, which involved a slight pout and a relatively zen expression. Perfect for the task at hand, clearly.
"I'll be sure to let you know what else I see." Pause.
"Later." After all the boring stuff was done with.
"Maybe you're trying too hard, like trying to force it, y'know? Hmmmm.... think about a time when you're.... really relaxed. Totally zen. See if you can channel that... feeling. And then try again see if it helps." She was going to try the exact same thing. Not precisely clearing her mind, but close enough, Ruby closed her eyes and thought of the beach, a small smile curving her lips.
