Lessons in Advanced Door-Opening [for Amelia Ronsam [personal profile] rogueinladysclothing]

It’s been some while since they made their informal arrangement, but Felix hasn’t at all forgotten the light-footed rogue or the dance he promised her. A pact is a pact, no matter how many duties – foreseen and otherwise – have demanded his attention.

For that matter he and Verity haven’t been meeting for Geography Club quite so regularly, and the smells when he steps through the door of the Fox and Crosier make him regret that fiercely. Alchemy study may have to be relocated whenever possible. He scrapes some of the snow from his boots and leather armor, then strolls up to the desk chicken to ask after Amelia.

"That doesn't always stop people from trying to put you off-guard by claiming you're late," she points out. "But I suppose that can't be helped sometimes." Mainly because people in the habit of claiming such things are going to be jerks no matter what one might do to dissuade them from being that way.

She gives him a small, half-hearted laugh and shakes her head, an almost wry smiles coming to her face. "I'm just a girl who wanted to give her family a better place in the world. Nothing more." What an unapologetic way of professing that she feels worthless compared to her family. And how odd it is that she feels that way, given all she's showed Felix tonight. How can someone so fearless in the face of crowds of strangers and breaking into places she shouldn't be think she's worth so little?

"Oh?" A slow grin spreads across her face. "Given the similarities, I think I'd be able to get around without having to buy new clothes. What a change that would be from previous experiences." And how much more fun it would be without having to worry about leaving her weapons behind on an unfamiliar world.
