Truth, but face value was only worth so much when one does not consider the multiple interpretations that are possible with simple sentences. By this time, he'd turned his body so that it was facing Happygoody. He'd learned that to be effective with others.

His first sentence earned him a raised eyebrow. Testing her convictions? She watched him as he sat up as if expecting an explanation. What he said next made her shrug and look away as she casually fixed her hair again. "Of course everyone's greedy. Some people just won't say it, but everyone is." What was life without greediness anyway? Everyone really wanted something. Especially money. "It's capitalism. Everybody's bound to be greedy to some degree, simple as that. I know you know that." No need to teach him the basics, especially when he himself had his own little business going on. "And what's life without ambition?" She added, shrugging and tucking a strang of hair behind her ear.

The Slytherin looked towards the Castle and wondered how early they were. She didn't recall being this early for any lesson before. She crossed her left leg over the right one and shot Cutty another weird look when he said he might find her interesting and that she was not like other girls. "Yeah, I've heard that before." Her tone was oddly neutral and she was already looking away again as she replied, waiting to see if any other classmate was coming. She had heard it before in different ways, good and bad. She really didn't expect much meaning to be behind those words, since they were coming from Cutty.

Although since it was Cutty, she should try and find hidden meanings behind his words? ....Nah. She couldn't be bothered. "I think we're really early." Agatha commented randomly. "And what are those for anyway? The ballerina now sounded slightly patronising, as if bringing the two jars had been all Cutty's idea.
