Some part of her was relieved that he declined. For all her practice, Hayley knew she wasn't any more than a novice with magic and the last thing she would want would be to upset him in a devastating manner for any length of time. At least right now, while they were still getting to know each other.

She smiled at the specific use of her same words, genuinely amused with him. His decline bordered on condescending in her mind, toeing the line of something she would have insulted him for or made a sarcastic remark about. But he hadn't quite crossed that line and so it was easy enough to focus on his latter remarks instead.

"That's almost a compliment." Her smile slipped into a smirk, chin lifting a fraction with amusement and curiosity. "If I didn't know better, I'd say you were trying to charm me, Sol."

One of her hands rested lightly on her bag - on the side opposite him - while the other sat in her lap. She was alert, even in her seeming carefree state.
