"Well if you were, you're a terrible liar, and I still got to do the exam. So there," Isla says, giving him one last cursory check over before she's officially done with him. By which time, of course, he's bringing up the elephant in the room, and she clears her throat and glances away from him with a gentle shrug. Now neither of them are looking at each other, and Isla scoffs out a laugh as she realises how terribly awkward this is.
"I don't know why we're being like this," she says with a shake of her head. "It's just a transaction, right? Besides, I won't lie and say I'm not interested in what else you can do these days. I thought being a lion was fun enough." She grins.
Cringing a bit to hear that a Fae is coming with them, Isla raises her eyebrows at Remi as if asking if he's really thought this through. "I only just came back to life," she reminds him. "Please don't let this Juniper person kill me again."
