The fifth year did his best not to appear too flustered at the attention, though it was a little hard seeing as Selina appeared to be apparently speechless at what had just occured.
Was that a good thing or a bad thing?
With his girlfriend, he was never absolutely sure but when she finally spoke once more he had enough of an answer to relax. "Thanks," he replied allowing a smile to cross his face as he set the guitar down beside him on the compartment seat. As much as he was sometimes skeptical of his playing, he knew Selina wasn't one to lie about things. And even when she tried to, she wasn't the greatest at it so Gideon knew her opinion was genuine.
"No problem," Selina chuckled. Gideon was looking at her like her opinion mattered so much. If he were terrible, and he was far from it, Selina wouldn't expect him to care about her opinion. Apparently she was wrong. But he had nothing to worry about. It really was quite good. And in a weird way the guitar kind of fit him. The whole shaggy hair and Gideon disposition. The only thing that would add to his whole persona would be if he played the harmonica, but that would be too perfect. She wondered...
Then she sat back in her chair relaxing from her intense watching position and asked him,
"So you've been playing for a bit. How did you even come upon guitar. No offense but your Scottish and I would have thought if anything it would have been bagpipes." She joked.
Then again she had the red hair so she supposed if anyone were to play the bagpipes to fit a stereotype it would have been Selina. Her ginger hair was the center of many stereotypes. Most of which surrounded her being a leprechaun; although, her height did not help much with that stereotype.
