She pulled herself up onto one of the offered chairs, legs dangling above the ground as she tried to make herself comfortable. Though not too comfortable. A normal amount of comfortable, for someone who did not regularly make herself comfortable in the homes of other men.
Nadine did not really know what a normal amount of comfortable was.
She propped her elbows on the counter, leaning forward with her chin on her palms and her fingers curled against her cheeks, watching as he worked. The forward lean did interesting things to her neckline, but in this instance it wasn't even deliberate; just a genuine lack of self-consciousness regarding the cut of her dress, and a distinct lack of ladylike care. As he laughed her mouth split in a grin. It was a good laugh. She was glad he wasn't stingy with it. "So, like… the opposite of thirsty." She didn't even mind that he'd seen through her.
It was all so charmingly domestic, arranging herbs and putting a kettle on. In large doses she thought that it would probably drive her crazy, but for now it was a glimpse into another life. Not one that she particularly wanted – but it was cute, anyway.
"Hmm." Her arms collapsed to cross over one another on the counter, and she rested her head on them as she watched his hands. "Baby repellent," she said finally. "Prior solutions have been found wanting. I like my hormones the way they are, and copper's a whole… ordeal." Her eyes flitted towards his face through her lashes. "Got anything better?"
