That sound, a moment of joy, seems to relax Nathaniel once more. Smiling, timid but there as he nods.
"I want to help. I do. And I will ask her."
Pausing, a furrow on his brow as he considers this, seriously giving it his time and attention.
"Outside of the basic things that any in my position know? I'm a pretty good cook, I keep a really clean house and, well, Gabriel used to tell me I'd make a great wife one day.'
Smiling a little more.
"I'm smarter than most credit me for. I have a pretty good memory for things. Near photographic. Almost anything I read? I remember."
*Snape removes his hand, not ungently. His body language suggests that he is not entirely comfortable yet.*
All good to know.
Well, Mr. Nathaniel, I have a great deal to think about.
Until tomorrow?
*He stands and gives Nathaniel a nod.*
Oh, and share the rest of the bottle with your friends, with my compliments. I will be interested to hear what their impressions of this whole conversation are, and how long they spent listening behind doors.
((Snape's still a bastard. He'd send a quick little hex at the door to give anyone listening a shock, but it's not his house. ;-)
And now I must go pass out in the direction of my bed. *is ded* I'll be back on tomorrow evening!))
((Hi! Sorry I've been MIA, but I've been trapped in an airplane all evening. *shakes her fist at the weather* I'm back though. Perhaps we should talk on IM? Sev's screen name is "I Spy Slytherin" :-))

And he can't help but grin widely at the comment about those listening in, biting his lip not to laugh.
"Goodnight, Sir."
((*laughs* Would serve them right! And see you laters. Sweet Dreams.))
