Oh, right. The machine man. I should have guessed.
[ sage nod. Lupin hasn't actually talked to him, but he's got a rough idea of who everyone in town is. There's no need for him to mention that if Connor's from way in the future to her, it's definitely even worse on Lupin's end... she knows. Probably. ]
You two are good friends, aren't you? Now that you mention it, I've seen you hanging around together. I've not spoken to him, myself.
[ Almost like a team.. The smart one (Connor) and the hot one (Lottie), occasionally Cairngorm (the Muscle) if they aren't busy. ]
But I don't think I've ever seen you in the same places we're ever at.. Unless you've taken to hiding in my house, too! [ Is this a joke??? Her tone is lighthearted, at the very least, but there is still an underlying accusation. ] ..He's pretty nice though, you'd probably like him. Anyone would, actually!
Hiding in your house? What sort of villain do you take me for? [ he gives her a wry look, shaking his head. ] I hope you're not implying that he's been skulking around here in secret.
[ hiding in a woman's house is creep behavior, ok. Lupin will dole out a punishment. ]
No, I meant... Ugh! [ Sometimes... Lupin!!!! ] I meant you'd probably hide in my house, along with sneaking in, out of everyone here! Connor uses the front door like a normal person.
[ And alerts everyone in the vicinity to his presence... Perhaps there is something to be learned here. ]
Also? He respects my authority to not do anything I don't want him to do inside the house. The perfect guest!
[ Well.. She wins either way. She has ANOTHER reason to not like Lupin - he can expose the truth out of people far too easily, and he knows too much. ]
W.. Whatever. Do what you want!
[ She weakly points in his direction, secretly embarrassed from getting worked up so easily, until she moves to sit grumpily at her kitchen table. ]

If I didn't know better, I'd say you were trying to tell me something with all this, Miss Person.
[ she's making him sound like some kind of CRIMINAL or something. ]
But I'm glad the two of you are such good friends. Planning to use French to woo him?

[ HE IS ENTIRELY CORRECT!!!!!!! but she refuses to confirm for sake of her dignity!!!! ]
And that it's also none of your business. I'm here to get educated and cultured, is that so weird for me?!

I was joking, actually. No worries, though, I'll not breathe a word of it to anyone.
[ because he's guessing from that huffy reaction that he hit a little too close to the truth. ]
