[manipulative]

Yes.

[ katherine smiles wider. ah, sometimes, stefan has no idea when he gives her a wide berth to embarrass him.

but first: she must play a little coy. ]

But you might find it a mess of contradictions, though.

[prescind]

Are you going to answer my question in riddles?

( that'd be a new one. )

Or are you just building up to embarrassing me?

[manipulative]

Both.

[ she smiles widely and brushes her fingers against his chin. speaking in riddles is fun, especially when it sees him blush. ]

I like this. Your jaw. [ she brushes her nails against his skin lightly as she admires him. ]

( stefan shudders and leans into her nails, unable to help himself. )

My face is a square. My jaw makes up the most of it.

( self deprecating to the end. )
