"I know what y-" Casper's jaw clenches hard before he can finish this statement, though, and he gives his head a terse shake. If he had to, he could explain that beneath the familiar scents stirred up by the Amortentia there had been the fucking AXE body spray and that it had become the strongest scent in the room in that moment between when the effects of the potion had gone and when he'd had the sense to pull away. But he certainly doesn't want to. So he continues quickly instead, hoping the other boy won't have time to realize what he'd almost said. "It doesn't fucking matter, all right? I didn't know the circumstances and I misunderstood the intention. That's all. End of story."

He pauses long enough to push back his dark hair and then presses, wanting to turn the conversation in another direction if he can, "Did you ever figure out why you smelled lavender?"
