Harrow laughs, then laughs again. Everything she said has some amount of humor in it, apparently!
"You think if I could get paid for teachin' folks things I'd be hangin' out on benches tryin' to make movie boxes work? Frost magic's one of the only kinds that doesn't come with a price, Verity. Only price you gotta pay is puttin' up with me and Steve-o." What a good time to be Verity Willis, Truth-sensor. Harrowheart either has some extremely tricky magic that can actually hide all of his lies (which, come to think of it, he has appeared suspiciously truthful...) or he isn't lying at all.
But there's no way this guy, of all people, has the power to keep the truth from Verity. His magic comes without a charge, and he doesn't even realize it should.
"I guess Steve's a pretty common name, huh? Steve's, like... He's... Blonde, sweet, rail-thin, and about nipple height. I think I could pick him up with one hand, even in my human form. He wants to be a soldier, and he's from North America world. 1941!"
