Never having been one for hand-shaking, unless it was at some formal event and his parents were going to be there watching, Nikolas wasn't sure if Roger was going to try to shake his hand, or just nod at him, or what. He settled for being polite but seeing what the older wizard would do.
"Hi," he offered, standing his ground. "It's, ah, good to meet you, finally. Lucy talks about you a lot."
Well, she did. Before, when he and Lucy had just been meeting to study, Nikolas had actually assumed she had some sort of crush on Roger. Now, though, it sort of seemed like it was more of a sibling relationship. He thought about how this might be if it were him meeting someone Astrid were dating, years down the road, and suddenly it occurred to him that maybe Roger was skeptical about this whole thing. Aware that this might be the case, Nikolas made a mental note not to say anything stupid today.
