It was an unexpected question, but Killian shouldn't really be surprised that this was Charles' idea of fun – sitting in an almost deserted classroom with a wand and a quill. "Don't know, suppose it wouldn't really surprise me if it were," he answered honestly, casting a contemplative glance at the door leading to the hallway. In comparison to this, his sister's relentless questioning was gradually starting to seem like the more favorable option. "Do ye truly want me to respond to that question?" He looked back at Charles with a raised eyebrow and a chuckle.

Many people had asked him the same question before. It seemed like they believed the only way to learn was by staring into an old book all day. Killian's grin persisted as he leaned forward, resting his elbows on the desk. "I do, but I don't use it as an excuse to be a killjoy," he replied with his usual straightforwardness. He shrugged casually. "No, why would I waste time on that?"
