 be curious, not judgmental
Becca watched Lainey with curiosity, casually glancing from one professor to the other. She did her best to stiffle her laughter upon realizing that Lainey's mini-seizure wasn't really a seizure at all. Vindictus didn't seem to catch on - or maybe he was just playing it cool. He confirmed Becca's theory when he winked and ruffled his own hair.
Heh.
Mattress-surfing in the common room? What about the weregoat that ATE HER PILLOW in the girls dorm?! Becca shot a fretful look up at Lainey, wondering if her - uh - distraction would make her forget about their mission after class.
"EASY, Miss Professor Lainey. We soared across with EXPERTISE. Smooth sailing the whole way. We even had jealous onlookers," she gave another smug look to Diggy, then Simon, the one who said his boat was better than theirs.
Poor kid. He was in denial.
