But before he had the courage to open his mouth, V asked about the book beside him, and he was both relieved and irritated by the change of subject."Magical Hieroglyphs and Logograms" he said rather enthusiastically as he reached for the book and held it up to show her the cover. "I picked it up at Flourish and Blotts this summer. It's quite fascinating so far" He was only two chapters in though.
Daniel sat with his book on his lap, listening to V speak. He had always admired languages, and he was impressed that she had attempted to communicate in another language over the summer. "Can you teach me some basic French?" Of course, not right now. Even though he enjoyed learning new things, even he didn't want to spend his train ride studying.
She should have known he was reading something way out of her league.
“What even IS a logogram?” She asked, raising an eyebrow at him. Was she judging him for reading in the first place? She supposed not since she seemed to loooooove surrounding herself with friends who were smarter than she - well, at least BOOKsmarter. She didn’t know that Serena OR Lisa were as good at people skills as she was….though was she even that good? She supposed it depended on her mood and the other people in question. But really - what WAS a logogram? She didn’t think she had ever heard that term before.
“And what made you pick that book to read anyway?” She had a few magazines in her trunk, and that was kind of the only reading V even liked to do.
Color her surprised! Daniel wanted to learn something from
her? She had to look out the window and snorted.
“Sorry - I was just checking to see if pigs were flying out there because you just asked ME to teach YOU something!” She smirked teasingly at him before nodding.
“But of course I will, if you’ll be a good little student for me…” and she wiggled her eyebrows.
