So fidgety. He was nervous was what he was. Nervous around a pretty girl? Or nervous that a girl might find him pretty?
Could be either, could be both. She'd choose to be optimistic. Willing to kiss her until proven otherwise.
His examination of her ID seemed dubious. She narrowed her eyes as he flipped it over to check the back. Too many different states for her to keep track of what distinguished the good IDs from the bad, if they kept her in cigarettes and liquor she assumed they were good enough. Witches were tricky business, still.
I guess. Reluctant even when he was trying to be agreeable, becauseā¦ didn't like to lose, maybe. Liked being right. It was a trait that warred with soft sweaters and nervous fidgeting. She slid her ID back into her wallet as she dissected his personality to examine it from all angles.
Bossypants. That part came naturally to him, little orders and leading her around without asking. She abandoned her mug as if she'd forgotten it. It was the other stuff he'd had to work at, make himself something balanced. Witches liked balance. Except the crazy witches. She didn't need crazy witches in her life. She ran her fingers along the edges of shelves, tapped the corks on glass bottles, prodded at a length of cord.
Tricky business. Couldn't be too hard on a softie because they'd break, couldn't be too soft with a control freak because they needed to break. Not enough to work with yet. More information required.
"The spell would be backup," she said, picking up a piece of dried foxglove to examine it. "I'll still be using condoms." She shrugged. "If magic's going to keep fucking me I might as well get magical protection." She twirled the stem slowly between her fingers. "I suppose if I really wanted to be sure it worked, I'd ask you to test it."
