This time it wasn't a weird, awkward stare, but more of a studying type of stare. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. That's something Finn had been taught, whether by himself or his parents. But mostly, he started doing that for his own good nowadays. He wondered if Beverly did that as well, and if for the same reason as him. Anyway, after a couple of seconds he just nodded at her. Nothing else was said.
Excuse us, what was the grass flicking for? Finn had done nothing to deserve this terrible type of treatment. Nothing! He did laugh a little quietly, though.
"Do I- do I get dubbed or or something?" Just to make it official. Not that it was a big deal. Though, it made him wonder just how far Beverly would go into participating in something she might find silly. Figure her out slightly. " I think... I think Miss Potions Master... is brilliant." Nod, and he wasn't just saying it because he thought of it. "Wh-what is?"
A quote weekly wasn't terrible. In fact, he thought he was meant to do that for right now. But, Finn decided on keeping quiet, to save his own skin at the moment, he couldn't think up of anything else that was inspirational. "I'll I'll try." Find a quote weekly. Was it time to hit the library or something now?
He sat there in silence for some time, still continuing to search for dandelions. Soon he made himself a very very small pile of them, it wasn't a lot, maybe four or five, but he was sure Beverly would appreciate them. "Found-found any?" She'd only gotten one or so earlier, correct? He didn't want to out-do her. This was her project after all.
Well now she wasn't looking at him because she felt like a rude troll for cutting him off. That hadn't been her intention and his silence made her wonder if he'd taken that to offense or something. Tucking more hair behind her ear, she glanced over at him. "I didn't mean to cut you off." Honest. "I felt like I was making you talk...and some people don't like that and I don't know if you like that." Rambling, it was happening. "Rolo is a nice name." Just FYI.
At least he laughed at the grass throwing. "That's my excitement...shown in grass-tossing." Just a quick little explanation so he wouldn't think she suddenly became an angry nature sprite.
"You do." She brought up a dandelion and waved it at his head. "You are...Mister Quotes, the Great Dandelion Finder." Oh my Merlin how stupid and silly was that. She was behaving like a CHILD. The last time she'd done this was when she was eight years old and had dubbed Kennedy as key-master to the stable and named him 'Mister Horsie Protector.' She played it cool, though. Looking at Finn like she was royalty and he'd just been induced to her court. Yeah. Cool.
He liked Miss Potions Master, didn't he? "It sounds mysterious. I'm all about mystery." She'd give it to him since she chose Mister Quotes. "Okay. I like it, Miss Potions Master." Beware. BOO. As for what she was hinting at, "Dragon Lord." Can she get an 'ooh!' for such daring name?
She grinned and nodded. He'll try for those quotes, good. Maybe they'll even post these inspirational quotes on their notice board. Maybe...if he wanted. But she'll let him know after she hears the best ones.
Finn was beating her at the dandelion hunt. She looked over at her great pile consisting of two dandelions. "I found two." Beverly sounded victorious. It was better than zero, okay. "I think this'll do. I usually don't store many." Actually, she probably had more here than she's ever collected at Hogwarts.
