The response brought an actual smile to the Gryffindor's lips and was one that lasted all the way through to the activity explanation. It was like...robotics with runes, and Atlas was a champion robotics driver. "...awesoooooooooome..." he hummed under his breath while leaning forward, hands on his knees, and attention entirely captivated. The Silver Chariot was the obvious choice too, it was so sleek and awesome looking. He had this crazy idea of...shrinking down to fit the size of the car too. Atlas didn't think he could manage it with magic...but with runes maybe they could. Like...Berkana...in reverse. Or whatever it was that that fancy word it was for when the effects were opposite.
...it was an idea he could not stop thinking about and was totally on his mind when Quinn approached him. "Huh?" Slowly coming out of his day dream while tracing the B shaped rune on his palm still. It took a moment for his brain to switch from one fantasy to reality, but it click after a second. "Yeah. Let's do it this." Awkward and confused tension? Totally forgotten at the moment and overshadowed by the light of curious possibility. Quickly loops an arm through Quinn's and pulled him a little off to the side to whisper something. "We should see about borrowing the Silver Chariot outside of class and shrinking ourselves to ride it." He would have just outright suggested that they do this during class but that was too obvious. And Professor Gunter was RIGHT there.
Quinn blinked.
Oh. "Alright," Quinn said with a small smile. He guessed... it wasn't even a big deal for Atlas. He felt a little dumb, honestly. For Atlas is was genuinely just simple. He wasn't expecting to be tugged along and he stumbled a bit when they first started walking, but he fell in step quickly. Quinn eyed the Silver Chariot and stifled some laughs.
"Wait, do you think there's a spell or something to make us small enough?" He outright giggled this time, imagining him and Atlas zooming around in a toy car. It would definitely be fun to go around the loop-de-loop in it. And suddenly it was like nothing had changed since they were on the Hogwarts Express on their way to start their first year.
