"How about you make a guess or two then I'll tell you what could be more disappointing about you than the fact you're not a criminal."

One of them was obvious for real and had already come true but that was the less significant of the two and almost expected, you know? The other would put him right up there with Fuller and Thompson.

Lex blinked at his idea of what to do with heels. Were she any other girl--were she her cousin, she might have looked a bit scandalized by the thought but this was Lex and she was fully agreeing. Still. "Because that's just not what you do, even I know that." Believe it or not, it was saying a lot considering she was one of the least feminine women she had ever met. "You're no longer wearing heels if you've broken them then they don't give the same impression. S'not the same showing up in flats." And first impressions counted for a LOT. Her age was currently working against her so something had to give.

Did the dude have a reason for walking out on her? "No. Absolutely not.....maybe." The lines sometimes blurred, you know and then it was hard for Lex to remember who's fault it really was. "Dude was a complete pansy. We were learning to waltz, see, and the rules are that the taller partner leads but I don't roll that way and he got cross about it because we both kept going left." HIS fault for not doing what she wanted. "And he had this thing about catching the coloured petals falling to earn us points but I liked the black ones better...even if they took points."

So really she was just a disagreeable person when she didn't get her way. Obviously his fault. Obviously.


Oh, so this wasn't all around life disappointments. Just, how he could end up being a disappointment to her. Well, that certainly put a new twist on things. Tilting his head back, Sabel looked up at the ceiling and pursed his lips in thought. "Two things." Cause the first thing he had thought of now didn't count. "Alright then, lets see."

He glanced down without fully bringing his head forward, a mischievous grin on his lips. "I suppose I could tell you that I'm not really an Auror, and just here for the food and drinks." He was pretty sure that would set her off completely, if it were true.

The second one he would have to think of. That Auror one would be the most serious. The least serious. He hummed a little. "That I'm not a natural brunette?"

Nailed. It.

Alright, so she didn't like heels but she didn't like not liking them. Sabel shook his head and tucked the thing back in his pocket. "Could be what you do." He shrugged. "It might not be the typical impression, but it is still an impression." He gave her a meaningful look there. Not all impressions should coincide with what people expected. Some of the best, never did.

As for her difficulty with her dancing partner, Sabel had to laugh. Really, it wasn't terribly funny, but the way in which she had put it was amusing. Oh to be a kid back in Hogwarts. "Sounds like you were both pretty stubborn. Still, I'm sure he could have figured out a way to roll with it and not leave you standing there." Because that just wasn't cool. Especially not to a young girl. It was a hard age, and there was no sense in making it harder.

Although, he was curious as to who had really won the battle. "How many points did you manage to loose?"
