[Look, she can tease all she wants, and Merlin's a self-proclaimed voyeur. It's not as if having a student for, what, three years now? How-many-years will break a habit that he's had for more than a millennia and counting.
And, hmm. While he likes that his student's instincts are getting sharper, having that little reveal now is ill-timed. Later, he'll tease Watanuki about being attracted to one of Mari's biggest fans ("Won't you make me strawberry shortcake? Mari can eat it on camera and the doctor can eat his heart out; it'll be great!"), but for now - yes. Good. It pays to have a student with a different skill set.]
Correct on both counts.
Would you like to see what else you can pick out, or shall I spill the beans?
[Of course, he'd rather Watanuki step up to the challenge. By now, the adrenaline from running should've died down, no?]
