"I do not think the world is ready for you being capable of planting facers." She smiled at his words, the anger from moments before lost under the idea of him teaching her anything. "Should you wish to learn, I will teach you." Reaching out she wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him. It was done without thought, and without intention. She just wanted to hug him as she was excited to learn. What had begun as a simple hug, however, lingered as the warmth of his body seeped into her's. The feel of his strength, and the scent of him.
Pulling back, Emmeline looked up at him with, expressionless for a moment before she smiled. "Shall we do it now? Or do you need to keep looking?" In which would lead to her also asking, "If I am such an horrid look out, perhaps you should teach me that too!" She had thought she was doing just fine, but if he was going to nit pick then she was going to demand he show her how to do it better! See how he liked being left in a hall.

you can run BUT YOU'LL DIE TIRED When Emmeline wrapped her arms around him in a hug, Ezra remained still. He did not stiffen nor did he freeze. He was merely . . . motionless for a moment. His arms slightly raised on either side of him as if not to touch her and the more the embrace lingered, the more difficult that was to do. The warmth of her body pressed against his was, dangerous. His hands inched closer towards her back to return the hug but merely an inch before they would have been placed upon her, she dropped her arms and Hunt followed the action, letting his fall to his side once more. He was unsure whether it was relief or disappointment that he felt. She looked at him for a moment before asking whether they should do it now.
❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ ❖ He glanced at the hall, knowing that it was best they remain inconspicuous for the time being, considering what the nobleman may say even in casual conversation about his and Emmeline's presence. He looked back at her upon her suggestion of teaching her to be a lookout. "Indeed," he agreed, not about to make excuse that she was not a horrible lookout. "As I now learned it is not as simple as following instructions of looking and not speaking." There was an underlying tone of slight teasing in his voice, though he meant what he said. "Come then. Perhaps it would benefit me for you to learn a thing or two about being useful in an investigation." Whether it be self defense, or being a lookout. She needed to learn because he had long since accepted, she was not going anywhere anytime soon. And to that, he knew he felt more relief than disappointment -- regardless of how he may state or suggest otherwise.
