[ albus takes the bottle and turns it in his hands thoughtfully as he listens to scorpius ramble - and honestly, he rolls his eyes super hard. scorpius, that was not what he was going for. ] Well, you should get it off your finger but the color is nice.
[ he takes scorpius' hand in one of his and lifts it so that it's up at the level of his eyes, and grins. ] Contrasts. [ house colors, you bastard. ]
Let me do it. [ he's just going to settle in, holding on to scorpius' hand still as he figures out how to balance the tiny bottle properly so that he can carefully use the brush to paint the rest of scorpius' nails. it takes a lot of concentration: he's not very coordinated or artistic, honestly, but at least he can do a better job than using your non-dominant hand on a first go.
anyway, he's being completely serious about this; cross-legged next to scorpius on the bed, clutching at his hand to keep it steady, and doing his best to be meticulous with putting the polish on. ]
