I am currently fixing up the character. Going to change the name as well. I don't know if it fits well. My new name may not either. Just felt like not using an OC name. As far as Greed it is in reference to his thirst for knowledge and creation. It is something that was probably given to him by someone else and others started calling him it because of that. Rumors and such as a rich child. Like how his diet is specific. He spends his family's money to get what he needs in order to stay healthy and balanced. That and spends money to research just about everything he can in this world. I'm not sure if they have some kind of MagiTech computer or phones or whatever. But if they do, he probably collected a few of those to fuel his research. Greed, Gluttony, and Pride. These are all nicknames he could have. He is always eating. I mean just about always. He snacks. Has a crazy amount of pride due to his past life and yeah. Just a sinful one.
Oh, wait a sec
@Aqutanama, is your chara part of one of the 4 schools/vigilantes? Doesn't really say on your sheet
Not that you need to be a part of them or anything, would just make it somewhat awkward to join in I think
Could he not be that rich kid that got in because of his family's influence? I'm sure that would piss so many people in the school off. Not the players but the characters.
"Okay class, settle down. We have a new student." Informed the teacher.
"But it is the middle of the year." One student jokes.
"Please introduce yourself." The instructor said, as he showed Maverick the way.
Maverick quickly made his way up to the section the instructor showed him. The very tall microphone wasn't within reach. Being young has its drawbacks. He also noticed some of his classmates whispering about something or another. Probably saying that he is short or too young. He decided not to stick out by utilizing his ability here. Showing off could only bring him rivals. Ones he didn't want to waste time on. Therefore, he adjusted the microphone.
As he looked out to the classroom, he noticed all eyes were on him. This caused his vision to blur for a moment and his body had a cold chill. His palms started to sweat as he tried to focus. Growing up in a wealthy family that went to big events all the time one should be acclimated to these kinds of environments. However, Maverick was young and felt out of place in most situations. Mainly, because he had almost zero grasp on magi-tech. While his family manufactured said influential artifice.
It always made him feel... off. His knowledge was vastly different from this world but that didn't mean that he was perfect. Far from it and he knew it. This was the reason he wanted to join this school. He wanted to advance the technological levels of this world but needed a baseline to start from. St. Laurel's School of Divine Excellence had the facilities that he needed to do so. However, getting into the classes could cause issues. One was supposed to know how to build already. He didn’t, at least not the same build that this world has, and that made things harder for him.
His thoughts continued to spin around and around as the room became darker and darker, from his perception that is. One of the students cracked a joke about how short he was. Another said something along the lines of him taking forever for a simple introduction. His breathing became quicker as he stood in front of the class. Then a sort of cold calm washed over him. The darkness of the abyss filled the room, his perception of it. He was once again in the void and somehow this calmed him.
“Hello, my name is Maverick Majere. I’m currently 13 years old. Furthermore, I’m willing to learn. Therefore, please take care of me, my elders.” Maverick informed them with a slight bow. He couldn’t help but to smile as he bowed. However, as he came out of his bow his smile vanished.
“I will learn everything required to move magitech forwards!” He thought to himself. With his strange introduction he made himself a target. Perhaps, he was just a trap waiting for them to unwittingly step into. Who knows given his age but the gods seemed somewhat entertained to see what would happen.
Ugh, nevermind, sorry. Too tired. Just keep doing what you're doing I guess. I hope you take some time to flesh out your character because I do like the idea at least.
lol. I think I will go with what was recommended.
Name: Val Greed
Sex: Male Age: 13 Grade: 1st year of St. Laurel's School of Divine Excellence Height: 5’9” Max Height 6’6” (When he is older) Weight: 90 lbs Max Weight: 250 lbs (When he is older) Hair Style: Long hair down past his waist Hair color: Brown Eye Color: Brown
Young Genius
Biography: Some say that great power has a great cost. Either that or one trains in order to gain said power. Val lost his world. Some would probably think that being reborn in another world would be great. However, that was not the case for Val. He was trying to make a breakthrough that would change the galaxy and the future! Fate, coincidence, bad luck, bad timing. These were all things that people would blame. He was happy with his research! Something had to go wrong to get to where he is now, right?
His family were the leaders of quantum computing, engineering, physics, mechanics and theory. Of course, this was in his past life. In that life and this one he would be considered a genius. However, in his previous life he was messing with black holes, while relying on the quantum field, he fell into one. Well, his ship did. Time seemed to stretch as did his ship and his very being. This seemed to happen for what seemed like thousands of years. This drove the poor once young man insane. Yes, for some reason he was still alive during the process. Eventually, his insanity faded. Everything became one within the event and everything became clear.
His sanity was restored and somehow his consciousness survived the process. What people would call a soul, spirit, mind walking… Well, whatever it was he was doing it. However, when he emerged from the singularity he was in another dimension, realm, or point in space. It is possible that the years he experienced really happened on a galactic scale. Either that or he exited another black hole. There was the theory that black holes are linked. He didn’t have time to process his thoughts as he noticed a strange blob coming towards him. Then a dark being appeared and grabbed him. When he woke up he was in a new body. Had a new family. Things were different yet he understood what was happening.
Val’s life was simple. He was born into a wealthy family. Some suspect that they are of a long lost royal line. Others speculate that they came from a demi-god family heritage. Both or neither could be true. That aside, Val knew enough about his realm and hoped that he could use it to his advantage here. However, the more he tried to access the memories the more they seemed to fade.
Due to this, he spent most of his time when he was a baby learning the language as well as anything else he could. Speaking the language was a lot harder than the written and writing. It is possible it was because he already knew twenty other languages from his original life, or did he? That isn’t to say that the language was hard to learn, just harder than the reading and written versions of the language.
Once he was able to walk he was training. Be it his body, his mind, or his powers. Somehow he had gained gifts. They reminded him of his time within the black hole, however, they were different. He trained under heightened gravity fields due to his power. Weights were not needed as they could damage his body. He tried to keep up a constant field around himself in order to maximize his training.
Eventually, he would get used to the weight. Every time he did he would multiply it. Mind you he has had this ability since he was born. Therefore, using it since he was a baby would be possible. However, the multiples were so small that others wouldn’t notice. It was doing something for his body though. He would remove the fields when someone he loved was nearby. This gave him some time to recuperate and didn’t allow him to hurt others. He couldn’t recall why but family was something important to him.
Because of his training his body transcends the normal limitations of his species. A few things he can do due to this is flight, jumping really far quickly, running really fast, and taking hits from things that would kill someone. He tried training his mind by getting invested in Magi-tech. However, he started to get plagued by nightmares and stopped. (Caused by a majority of the deities getting bored of his research) Which was sad because he seemed to have a knack for it. Perhaps sometime in the future he can pick it up again.
Powers: Core Ability: Singularity Transcendence, the Divine Entertainment Val survived within a black hole for thousands if not tens of thousands of years. Due to this The Goddess of Chaos took pity on him and bestowed a blessing and curse upon him. Singularity Transcendence has forked abilities based on the Black Hole and quantum. Manipulation of gravity, portals, time, and space. Telekinesis due to the manipulation of gravity fields. Black hole space is a special space that only he has access to. However, he has yet to unlock most of these abilities. This is probably due to the Goddess of Chaos wanting to see what he can do with one of the abilities. Furthermore, these abilities seem to have several levels. The Deities can “tune in” and watch him every now and again. The Goddess of Chaos set up a voting system in order for him to unlock his abilities. However, there is also a down vote system. This causes the Goddess to send “bad things” his way. Some of the bad things are nightmares of his previous life, chaos creatures that hunt him and don’t let him sleep. Even if he slept he would have nightmares.
This ability was bestowed by the Goddess of Chaos
Unlocked: Sub-Power 1 - Gravity Control: Basic (Growth) He can manipulate gravity within 2 meters of himself. The force that can be applied can go up to 5 times the planet's normal gravity. Alternatively, he can do the reverse and lower gravity in the area around him, inducing a moon-walk zone of effect. This power can be utilized long term as a makeshift training tool, and over time, it is expected that it may grow stronger after sufficiently entertaining the gods. This ability was unlocked or allowed by the Goddess of Chaos
Sub-Power 2 - Artificer of the Stars: Raised in his past life by a family known to be foremost in the arts of quantum computing, engineering, physics, mechanics and theory, Val is (at least in this area of study) what can only be described as a super-genius and technological savant. To compare his potential to the likes of Tony Stark might not be far off. However, there's just a couple small issues. Firstly, this new world simply lacks the bleeding-edge high-tech industry to access the advancements rolling through his mind. He'll need to build the tools to make the tools first, but once that's done? Well, the world is his oyster. A second notable caveat is that this knowledge is purely science-based. His world had no magic. As such, he is a rank amateur in the mystic side of tech, and magitech is completely outside his area of expertise or proper comprehension at this time, especially given that he can't even cast magic.
Sub-Power 3 - Apex Humanity: One of the first powers granted to him by the Goddess of Chaos to keep his reckless ass from accidentally murdering himself as a child through ignorance and excessive gravity power usage on an undeveloped, infant body. Anything a regular human can do, he can do better, assuming he's put in the same amount of effort. His constitution is highly robust, making illnesses and some poisons less effective on him and letting him endure harm and keep fighting with the kind of grit an anime protagonist would only thumbs-up at. He can run as fast as a peak human, despite being merely a child. His strength carries the weight of a trained martial artist behind it, despite receiving no formal training. His agility and hand-eye coordination make him a master of parkour and deflecting or using thrown projectiles. His 5 senses are practically bestial in how refined they are. The natural human limiters on his body are released, allowing him to manually utilize 100% percent of his actual strength instead of 60% in an emergency... at the cost of inflicting self-damage on his muscles from the strain. That aside, a further effect of these broken limiters is that he is no longer constrained by the normal human maximum in terms of physical refinement. While his feats aren't quite outright superhuman compared to a peak human yet, given his young age, as he grows and continues to train, he will rapidly come to surpass the best of humanity's natural stock, solidly stepping into a realm only other Gifts can challenge... But such things are for the future...

@Lewascan2 Thank you for the suggestions and assistance on this. Is the above what you were thinking? I mean copy paste but still.
I did look at all the current character's abilities. Most have multiple functions from what I could see. So, I'm unsure what I can and cannot do.
Edit done.

Gravity Training Growth(Progression available within story) While growing up he trained under the highest influence of gravity control he has.
Big Family: His family is wealthy. Thus, he has no concerns over needing money. "I'm rich." would be an understatement.
Flaws: Unstable Mind: Weakness Val survived within a black hole for thousands if not tens of thousands of years. Due to this he went insane and regained his sanity over and over throughout the years. Due to this his mind is a weak shattered scattered mess. He is weak against mind influencing abilities.
Memory Leak: When he tries to recall his past life his mind forgets the memories that he tries to recall. Because of this he has to think of the future and not dwell on who he was. That person is gone, for now.
Entertainment for the Divine: The Deities can “tune in” and watch him every now and again. The Goddess of Chaos set up a voting system in order for him to unlock his abilities. However, there is also a down vote system. This causes the Goddess to send “bad things” his way. Some of the bad things are nightmares of his previous life, chaos creatures that hunt him and don’t let him sleep. Even if he slept he would have nightmares.
Growing Pains Due to the limitations of his small form, training as he does, causes his body to have intense cramps. These can usually keep him up at night. He has to stretch and massage the area. Usually his calves, feet, neck, and back. Stretching and massaging the area can give relief. Furthermore, eating the correct foods can as well.
I may make a future isekai character if possible. Someone who is in quantum stuff. same looks and name because I'm lazy. Listed in character below.

Powers: Core Ability: Singularity Transcendence Val survived within a black hole for thousands if not tens of thousands of years. Due to this he went insane and regained his sanity over and over throughout the years. This makes his mind immune to mind influences. Furthermore, he has special abilities based on the Black Hole and quantum. Manipulation of gravity, portals, time, and space. Furthermore, he has telekinesis due to the manipulation of gravitic fields. Black hole space is a special space that only he has access to. It can store anything and everything. Living, dead, or other.
Vortex The ability to devour spells, powers, and other abilities. However, there is a requirement of defeat. He must best someone in some way. Be it combat, wits, or something else. Furthermore, the abilities or spells have to then be allowed. However, once allowed he has a full copy of the ability, power, or spell. (Mainly this is a restriction so if players don’t want to share their powers he won’t take them.) This power can also consume matter. He can use the matter to help heal himself or store it in a black hole space.
Like the black hole he consumes.
Black Hole Space Black hole space is a special space that only he has access to. It can store anything and everything. Living, dead, or other. He can access it and pull items from it. This space is a special ability of his. Not a spell. Furthermore, this space allows him to shrink items or grow them. This does take time but is possible.
Core of the First Spark Core of the First Spark grants him immunity to fire. Furthermore, he can control flames at will. His Core fire is the strongest flame in existence. The spark was the first spark that started life in his original realm. It was within the dark hole and became part of him during his time within.

I would like to point out that he has a Max weight and height listed for when he grows up. Assuming he doesn't die.
3.5 deities and demigods. That book is real good. I would honestly need to see the crafter in order to decide. Lol as for the height I'm 6'4 and my little brother is like 6'7. Younger brother* in terms of dnd I can understand the entity. Something that consumes the divine or godly essence. Without it the gods shrivel and die. Godly boons, blessings, or cruses could be seen as something else to the entity. Or something the same. Assuming it attacks the schools.
Don't forget you can make a character that shoots 20 or so arrows in 3.5. Furthermore, with the correct help each arrow can be VORPAL. Additionally, with the correct feats one can shoot as far as they can see. No negs. See that speck on the mountain? Hit it! With a 13-20 crit range as well. Things were crazy. Unbalanced and could be fun. Anyways. We are like 2 hours from my home.
Mainly I just wanted to play as myself but have specialized abilities. As far as the time line. I was confused because of the schools. They reminded me of guild's and the names also compounded my mind. That and the Coliseum in the picture and Gods. It just all made me think of high power fantasy.
It probably didn't help that I have been tired. Traveling with the family.
My character isn't 6'6 yet. As I have no knowledge of the world's gods and what I can and cannot do limits my creation. But this is why I asked for feedback so thank you both. I would have to revisit my character once I get home. Unfortunately, that isn't going to be for a while.
Please take a look at what I have so far. If this is something that isn't accepted then I can try for another character. Either that or change this one up. Writing at 2am not so good.
If the above seems aggressive I can't use words at night. Sorry.

Child Genius Grade: 1st year
Biography: Some say that great power has a great cost. Either that or one trains in order to gain said power. Val lost his world. Some would probably think that being reborn in another world would be great. However, that was not the case for Val. He was in his midlife and had a family that loved him. Fate, coincidence, bad luck, bad timing. These were all things that people would blame. He was happy with his family. However, his happiness wasn’t something that could be kept. Something had to go wrong to get to where he is now.
His death was abrupt. He was out shopping for his family when he fell over. Blacked out. When he woke up he was in the arms of his new family, his mother and a wet nurse. in a different world. It wasn’t like he didn’t know the troupe. Isekai, traveler, summoned, regressor, taken, punished, and so on. He knew enough that when he was a baby he spent his time learning the language as well as anything else he could. Speaking the language was a lot harder than the written and writing. It is possible it was because he already knew two other languages from his original life. That isn’t to say that the language was hard to learn, just harder than the reading and written versions of the language.
The village Val grew up in was too small for him. His mother was a traveling mercenary and never home. That isn’t to say that she didn’t spend time with him. However, he did get lonely while growing up. She would bring him anything that he wanted. For Val, he wanted books and information first. After that he wanted craftsman tools and a shop. His mother spent money, and pulled some favors from friends, in order to set up an official shop within the small town. While there weren’t many people that visited the Guild of Adventurers would frequent the town just to see the young boy. They would tell him stories of the world and about the main cities and towns.
It didn’t take him long to invent a few things from his original world. These things would make normal life a little easier, efficient. Tools, foundations, recipes, and so on. However, he kept most of these a secret from the outside world. While it was usually hard to recall this information in his previous world it was as if he had full access to everything he had seen, heard, or experienced. This isn’t to say that he could recall every exact detail of a memory. He just had raw information from said memories. Everything was easier to learn because he had foundations on just about every crafting subject.
Martial and military training started when he was able to run. Every day he would run until he couldn’t. To say that energy is wasted on the young was incorrect. It was more like the energy they used was in a smaller package. That and they were still growing, so healing was a bit faster. To not damage himself he made sure not to overdo it. Stretching was part of his mid day regiment. Martial Katas were part of the night time activities. Every other day he would do some weight training. However, to not cause strange growth he didn’t do it too much. Endurance, strength, dexterity, agility, wisdom, intelligence, and charisma. He tried to focus on these things and found ways to enhance each through each craft.
Otherworldly knowledge could lead to bad situations. Therefore, he kept most of his inventions to himself. He had several books full of inventions and technology paths. Most of the things he wanted to make would most likely scare people. However, it was nice to know that most of these thoughts were solid within his mind. It was almost as if he had another realm within his mind he could step into. While his imagination was powerful, almost nothing was close enough to the real thing. This is why he wrote down most of his concepts.
He was usually quiet and chose to watch people and their reactions. The flow of life. This could be because he was introverted in his previous life or that he just didn’t have anything to add at the time. However, no one really knew why it was. There were points when he would talk about crafts and get excited, showing his age. His usually dull bored looking expression changed to one of a child who was passionate about a subject.
All of this led to people calling him paragon, prodigy, gifted, genius, and so on. Most of these people were the adventurers from the Guild his parents were part of. He was not one to believe in gods or goddesses. However, that didn’t mean that they didn’t see the young man and his accomplishments. Deities were all always doing strange things throughout the years. It was a surprise to him when he received blessings and boons from the deities.
He was only ten when this occurred and he couldn’t figure out why. He did nothing to gain favor from the gods or pray. He focused on himself in order to get somewhere in this crazy world. That and he never met his father. He was unsure as to who he was. It wasn’t something his mother would ever bring up on her own. It was like pulling teeth to get her to talk about it. Therefore, he would never show his interest. It wasn’t like he didn’t have male figures in his life. The Guild members treated his mother like a mother or sister depending on age. Which was strange because she didn’t seem that old. She was maybe late twenties.
He did bring up wanting to know his family on his mother’s side of the family. However, she was almost as closed off about that as his father. He didn’t know why or what was going on but continued his work and research. His mother spent less and less time at home as she was training new recruits. On his twelfth birthday he asked to join in with the new recruits. His mother seemed put off by the concept but gave in after seeing the hope in Val’s eyes. She was aghast when she saw how advanced her son was. Others praised her for raising him well. Her response made it seem like she had nothing to do with it. People just assumed she was being modest.
A year after advanced training, his mother told him about her family and father. She was from a wealthy noble family and her father was a higher up. Someone that should have not been with her. He was a bastard son in his last life as well but he was acknowledged in that life. This one he didn’t know who his father was. She didn’t directly tell him in order to protect him. He grimaced at the thought of someone being so high up that this needed to be done. She handed him two rings from each respective family and informed him of the schools. The thought of going to a school bored him. What could this backwater teach him? Perhaps they could teach him about the gods?
Thus he set off on his adventure with some supplies from his mother and her guildies. (This is where he rode off with a horse drawn carriage full of basic crafting stuff and food. Don't forget the food.)

Biography:
At the height of his power, he was crowned king or devil to non-Demonoid. Sadly, his teachings were falling on deaf ears as the others didn’t believe in them. It had been many years of him slaughtering his own kind to keep the rest of them safe. To him, too many clans were stifled because of their arrogance. They wouldn’t listen, they wouldn’t learn. Faint buzzing noise in the back of his mind as he rubbed his temples. Slowly he pulled his face down and his hands fell to his sides.
“Enough.” He whispered as he looked at the ground. His hands moved to the crown atop his head and he pulled it off. Silence entered the room as all eyes stared at him. The room itself had 16 clan heads seated around a table. The table itself was a massive stone slab that was cut into a strange triangle with cuts and additions in it making space for each of them. It was also tiered giving status to those seated. Val sat at the highest point. For the first time in his life, his shoulders were slumped as he spun the crown on the table.
“Îndoiți la my va.” He chanted and as he did he flicked his wrist, the crown crumpled into a small sphere. Glyphs, runes, etchings, and other magics formed on the orb and within.
“The one who can form this into the true crown may lead.” He stated flatly and rolled the orb to the center of the table.
Silence… finally. It took him some time to move to a chamber he created at the top of an old stone castle. Everyone he knew or loved had died in the war. The building was silent, save for the sound of his footfalls. When he finally stopped he was in a very small stuffy dark room. In it sat a stone sarcophagus. It took him many years to create a home in which nothing could enter. The vast amount of magic inlaid into the stonework was immense. The stone was a dark purple color.
Gently he swept his hand across the container until he reached a small depiction on it. These were all wars that he had been in and fought in. His wife thought it ideal to recount his accomplishments on something. Only after she died did he find out exactly where. One such battle depicted him wielding a sword and running through many foes. His eyes locked onto the sword and then pressed his finger firmly. The sword itself pricked his finger and blood fell onto the ground in the depiction. When it did all the figures moved on the sarcophagus as the lid opened. It was something done to hide the exact location of where the lid parts from the base.
Inside was probably big enough to fit two people comfortably and it was padded. He placed what few precious belongings he had into the empty sections surrounding where he would lay. Once inside he closed the lid allowing darkness to overcome him.
Many millennia later...
People moved around the room as if there was no poverty, no poor, no sick, and no wars. They were the top echelon of humanity or some of the top. Some of them were people who inherited their wealth and power.
It sickened him, causing a grimace to cross his face. If only for a second. After all, he had a specific objective for the night in accordance with his master. He needed to tend to his master’s family and business while he was away. Therefore, he buried his displeasure and placed a masked smile across his face.
The party wasn’t like the others he was forced to attend. This one was actually a little fun. However, again he digressed from his duties and reminded himself of his contract. People were confused by his stature and beauty and thought he was a painting or sculpture. A note that he should change his form to be less… perfect. Less himself, at least in appearance.
The night went on and some danced, others chatted about daily issues, and there were those who partook of the food. He was proud of the maids, butlers, and security detail. Mainly because he handpicked each of them as well as trained them. It wasn’t one-sided training. He picked up knowledge of the current era and what was to be expected in specific situations. However, this one was special and his master informed him what they would need to do. Each was like a shadow and didn’t speak unless spoken to.
When the lights went out he didn’t panic, it was like a natural reflex for him as his eyes changed. He could see in the dark as well as in the light. His duty was to make sure that his master’s family stayed safe. Therefore, he moved closer to his charges and observed. There was a small group of figures moving about. Hooded and wearing masks. “Extra cautious.” He thought to himself.
One of them made their way over to his charges. However, before they got close enough he moved to intercept. There was a moment of disbelief and uncertainty in the cloaked figures response as they tried to avoid him. They probably thought that he had moved there accidentally in the dark. However, that was replaced with surprise when Val knelt down to head level with the figure and locked eyes with it.
Again, the figure thought it was just a coincidence and tried to move, however, Val moved with them. It was almost like looking into a mirror and trying to walk through it. This time the figure froze and looked at him. Val only smiled and did a shoo motion with his left hand. His right hand was on the hilt of his black knife, which rested in its sheath on his hip. The figure took the queue and darted to others at the party. It looked like they were trying to make up for the lost time. One was at the camera and placed their hand on it. Well, more of a finger or thumb. After about two minutes they all seemingly vanished.
It made him smile to see that there were others with abilities akin to his own. However, that smile vanished as he moved back into his spot as a guardian. He knelt down near his lord’s daughter and calmed her with his voice. After a while the lights came back on. It was strange to him as they should have come on within a few moments. Redundant systems were in place to stop this exact thing from happening.
Val moved through the crowd standing behind his mistress and mini mistress. The wife and daughter of the man who held the event. They were now in line with everyone else waiting for their minds to be read. It was interesting to watch the people in line squirm as if they had something to hide. Some burst out and it only made him smile.
While they were in line Val was tapping away at his phone with his offhand. It was an apology and reimbursement letter to all guests who had lost something that night. Of course in preparation for lost belongings, everyone had to fill out a list and sign a letter for entrance. The letter stated that they would work with the authorities in order to get back any/all belongings. However, in the event that they cannot then, they would be reimbursed for the amount lost. In essence he was purchasing their belongings.
After that he moved up as it was his turn to be read. Mind reading was an interesting ability. It was hard to fool, however, it was still possible. Normally people would be asked a question that would bring forth a memory to the surface. However, there were those who could dig deeper into the mind. Deep dive memory collection was difficult and illegal in most areas. This didn’t bother him as he knew how to fool a deep diver. At this point he didn’t feel a need to try though.
He placed his hand on Mrs. Warren’s hand and when he did she started to blush. Slowly it became darker and darker. Soon she was breathing heavily and was crossing her legs. The memory that he pulled to his surface was a bit erotic to say the least. Instead of the normal people in the memory he injected Mrs. and Mr. Warren.
“Are you alright Mrs. Warren?” Val asked her as a smile crossed his face. He then bowed and turned her hand so the back was face-up. Afterward he kissed the top of her hand. As he looked up he gave her a sly wink and moved past her.
