Because deal's meant the exchange of goods or services. In this case, it meant the exchange of jungle warfare training for..................? What exactly? He hadn't said. And there was NO way in stinking swamps she was going to say 'yes' without knowing what the unspoken part of that 'deal' was.

Her heels dug into the door as well, a frown fitting into place. "I'm perfectly capable of keeping myself upright, thank you." Door or no door.

She was skeptical. It was refreshing. Children were too easily convinced these days, didn't need more than a few coercing words before they were eating out of the palm of your hands. So her wariness was good. Excellent, in fact. She was quick. He liked that, though he would never admit such a thing out loud. He didn't mind the students knowing he had favorites, it'd make the others work harder, but he didn't want to feed any egos yet.

Or ever, probably.

"I'll teach you some of my basic physical training..." he started, pushing himself off the wooden exterior of the stall and walking towards one of the others. "As long as you promise to visit the animals regularly," he grinned. Fair trade, yes? "Afraid now that you've given them carrots, they won't be loyal to any of the other visitors." Not necessarily, but he could tell the horses were under good care when she was around. Besides, she liked the animals. Didn't sound like much of a sacrifice to James.

He reached out his hand to give Apollo a good scratch behind the ear, but still his eyes remained focused on Miss Neverwinter. A careful watch. He chuckled at what she said, knowing very well that she probably was capable. But accidents happened. Still, he watched carefully.
