History showed that just made the Ravenclaw more awkward and self conscious, and Paige was not one to push buttons for her own amusement.

Cocking her head to the side with a wide eyed curious look similar to the owls she often observed, Paige observed Thornton as he turned slightly away from her - although she sound of coins clinking against one another gave away what he was doing. "REALLY?!" she chirped while bouncing in place eagerly, her curls tossing this way and that with some falling in front of her face. "I can't let you pay for everything though. You already spent galleons on my for my birthday. This would just be too much!"

No spoiling the Hufflepuff, Thornton.

"At least let me at least buy you your first Sugar Quill," she continued, hand held out, open palmed, towards him.
Thornton grinned broadly as Paige began to bounce. Her energy was contagious and, recently, it was the only thing making Thornton really, truly, genuinely smile. "That was for your birthday. This is different. This is you doing me a favor." Sure, his personal spending money was a little limited, but he'd buy this much candy anyway and then, if he didn't like some of it, well.. he'd end up giving it away.

So why not just share it from the start?

He nodded, though, and set the sugar quill in her hand. "Deal. You buy the sugar quill and I will get an assortment of homemade candies." And then they could go eat them until they got sick. "Any favorites I should get extra of?"
