But he would spend it all on a train if that's what Ophie wanted. So long as he had enough money afterwards to buy candy. That was the deal breaker.

Austin put his hand on his chin, and pretended to ponder. "Ophie darling you look fabulous." He chuckled at the fake accent he did. It wasn't grand, but it got his point across. "But since you already broke your original tradition, we could make a new one. Maybe instead of dressing like a slob, we should dress up nice and fancy." That would be a cool idea actually. He looked down at his own flannel and skinny jeans. He didn't look like a slob, which was good. "I now feel under dressed. I should have worn a nice dress shirt or something." Oh well.

Someone call the police, Austin was being murdered by cuteness. How could his jokes ever stand up to her awesome? Oh right, this is how. "Oh, it was just a SNAP decision. I was in such a daze that I didn't SNAP out of it in time, and added too much ginger snap. Next time I need to be GINGER about the amount I use."

He let out a laugh, glad to be smiling again. It was always nice to have Ophelia around. She could always make him happy, and even made his stupid bruise stop hurting. It was a dumb mistake. He knew that if he added too much something would happen. But he wanted to increase the length of the effect, which he know knew was not going to happen by adding more ginger snap.

"Do you think that we'll be leaving soon? I really want to get to that feast." The feast was the best part of the whole thing. There were endless amounts of food and pumpkin juice to go around. Hopefully this year will go better than last years feast. Maybe he could actually enjoy it this term.

So they had a deal? They were going to split their piggy banks and buy a train during the winter, when the market cleared up and it became a buyers market again. Oddly enough, this kind of conversation with Austin wasn't what Ophelia would find weird, which probably spoke a lot to her personality more than anything else. It was amazing he hadn't found her weird yet.

"Glad to be doing business with you, Moore. Now about those investments...." The little blonde talked fast, like she imagined one of those confident business men would do when talking business. To be honest, the thirteen year old STILL had no idea what she was even talking about, but that was the fun of these conversations. You didn't have to know what you were talking about. You could make it up and the other person would usually go along with it.

And about that tradition, it seemed like an interesting idea. Heck, if Ophelia worked quickly, she might even get some stuff together for the two to have a little celebration on the train. The possibilities were endless, and immediately the motors in her head started turning and she started planning.

"Well Austin, I guess that settles it." She sat up straighter in her seat. "I hereby declare that this is the of of a new tradition!" Yep, the little blonde was excited. Mostly excited because she was thinking of twenty different things she could do, but still extremely excited.

And about those puns. Yeah, he was cute, but puns were kind of killing the deal here. Oh, who was she kidding? They were making the situation worse! What? Puns were like the cutest form of jokes. Completely harmless and really snazzy. But still, the urge to mock her crush won out over the urge to compliment him. Because that's how the littlest Clarke child rolled.

"Austin, I hate to break it to you Daarrrrllllinnng." Yes, she was doing the accent back to him. It worked so well when he did it and now she wanted to try. And the results were... interesting? Meh. Ophelia didn't know how she sounded. "But puns are only cute when I do them." She touched his arm with her hand in mock comfort, and then quickly took it off when she realized how awkward it probably was. Was it awkward for him, or was it only awkward for her? How did this thing work? MAYDAY, MAYDAY.

Taking a breath, she went back to normal, or as least as normal as she could be. "But keep trying. the're kind of funny. You have that going for you."
