She smiled at his laugh, giving a small shrug. "It was attempt one, i'll make it better." Somehow. But that seemed like a solution she could come up with in time. "None of us need your ego to take that much of a growth spurt on." So.. no, workshopping it would be.

It was definitely a sibling thing, because if she thought about it from her end she also had a lot more patience for majority of her friends than she did for Vasco. But not because he was loud or anything similar to his plight with her, but others could be quiet and aloof and not get harassed about it the same way she did to her twin. But she also knew when it came to loyalty, Vasco would get the most from her. As she knew would also be vice versa. "I don't know why. Your sisters are delights!" She had a favorite, Bryony for sure, but she'd also certainly tried to both the older two at times with questions when Hadleigh was not available. One had to make do on certain things when a mom was not available to ask questions. "I think if he tried he'd actually surprise us all with a hidden talent. Best of luck to you though for getting him to try." It would be fun to see them play in a band together if he did attempt though.

She had been teasing, but the question of did she do something to her brain was similar to her own thoughts considering how... weird she currently felt. So him suggesting it as well had her eyes go WIDE. "Is that a possibility!?" Merlin, she hoped not. She was only 15!! Too young to die from a very dumb mistake!!

He didn't give her time to reach panic mode, however, considering he was telling her to get a move on and a low rumble in her stomach told her she should probably listen this time around. "Okay, okay! I'm coming!" and she moved her legs a litttttle faster, while he simultaneously seemed to actually slow down. She beamed in his direction, shaking her sleeve from his grip as she went through the portrait first. "Thank you! Make sure to keep up too slow poke!" She called, before picking up her pace even more so she could run down the hallway and beat him to the passage entrance (if she could find it).

Sorry, not sorry Loogie.
Much of the nickname Logan was fine with. There were certain descriptors he wouldn't disagree with, at least internally. But the house elf part, he thought, needed some tweaking. While he didn't necessarily mind the Hufflepuff calling him that, he refused to believe that he was devoted and loyal to Princess Vera. Perhaps she could take care of that while he figured out this medal thing. "Right. Because my ego is big enough," he replied with a snort. "Would hate to have this pretty head of mine inflate and pop."

On the topic of siblings, an eye roll occurred. She would, of course, think that his sisters were all delightful. Yes, they were sometimes fun. Sometimes being the keyword there, when they weren't screaming or annoying him. "Feel free to take any of them then." And he would take Vasco, who was basically like a brother he never had. "I know right? Imagine the untapped potential that is there. I'm sure I'll persuade him eventually." Or the Ravenclaw would just get tired of being pestered about it all the time and cave in.

He had been teasing too, though he did have to admit that he did notice her eyes widen at the idea of the spell causing some unwanted aftereffects. "With magic, anything is possible," he replied, his tone serious. But seconds later he broke into a chuckle. "I'm sure you're fine." She still seemed very Vera to him.

Now they were en route, slowly but surely. Logan hadn't realized that he was still holding onto her sleeve until he felt her shake herself from his grasp and go through the hole. His eyes rolled when she suddenly started making her way in the direction of the passage.

He followed after her, his eyes taking in the view as he strolled down the corridor, easily catching up to her thanks to those long legs of his.
