The thing about leaning was, theres a secret to it, it requires skill to show your best angles and still maintain that casual nonchalance that James S. Wilkes had down.
He'd certainly had worse luck before, so Jimmy wasn't arguing. He shrugged one shoulder. "Easy enough to lose the shirt again." He pointed out. "Though..." James glanced down at himself. "I kinda like this one." It fit nice. Was comfortable. Long enough in the sleeve when he actually had the sleeves rolled down instead of up leaving his forearms bare. And it was long enough to tuck in if he so happened to be inclined. Which he was not. In other words, it was a newer shirt that covered his recent growth spurt. "You look better without the hat." Observant Jimmy was observant.
"So where are you off to this fine day?" Pshhhaw. Who knew if it was fine? James hadn't been outside yet even though he did like to go for a run to burn off all the excess energy he tended to have in the mornings. He just felt lazy at this particular moment. Hence the wall. And the leaning.
Grin.
"One thing huh. And just what would that one thing be?" She asked in an innocent sort of way. She was pretty sure she knew what he was referring to but she wanted to hear him say it. Looking at him she had to laugh when he asked her if he looked like a troublemaker.
"Well, now that you mention it. I could picture you causing trouble of some sort." Seeing him there leaning against the wall trying to look all innocent she pictured him trying to convince a professor that he didn't do it... whatever
it may have been.
Raising an eyebrow she looked from his face to his shirt and back to his face.
"Do you lose your shirt often?" she asked then looked back at the shirt. Yeah he did look good in it
then again he looked good out of it too.
"Thanks, I feel better without the hat too." It had taken forever to get that stink out of her hair but she finally managed it. Now her hair smelled like lilacs on a nice spring day.
Where was she off to? That was a good question, one she didn't have an answer for though.
"No place in particular. I just needed to get away from doing homework so decided to go for a walk. What about you? Where are you off to after you get done exploring down here?"
