She gave him a sideways glance and a little laugh. "Oh it's come to that, has it?" Normally she wouldn't condone such behavior, but she knew Vlad to have a great amount of patience, and the aforementioned neighbor questionable manners. "Well, as long as you're sly about it. I seem to recall thinking you quite sneaky some time ago. But no more of that." Helena gave him one last amused look before settling her features into something more neutral, completely proper and wholly innocent. "So if something should happen to his equipment, well then I shall be completely shocked." She was, of course, completely teasing. Probably. She would be more surprised if Vlad actually did give into temptation.
She turned her head up slightly to look at him, curious to see what ground rules he would jokingly out of her. The idea of a time limit had her lifting an eyebrow, both shooting up in shock when he said three hours. Although the slight turn of her lips and the pink color of her cheeks easily gave her away. He pulled her close and she slipped her arms around him for a embrace, humming happily as his head leaned against hers. "I do hope you're right about that, Vlad."
