He would have to watch his words with this one. Perhaps he had been TOO aloof in potions. He didn’t appreciate her tone when she said ‘don’t do it again…’ because…well, what if he needed to do it again for whatever reason? He could hardly see the future, and maybe he’d need to ask her to get his supplies for a very innocent reason. “Well, since we’re able to get past this…can we talk about how unfair Professor Adara is? She took points from you, and I thought I was much ruder. I ignored most of the class to read my book.” Perhaps she had it out for poor Sloane. Adults could be that way sometimes. His mother was a prime example.

And a common enemy merged alliances, Roman found. So, he would talk about the common enemy and hopefully forge better terms with Sloane henceforth.
