Aha. Poor dear evidently wasn't quite used to being called handsome. By other men, at least. Sebastian made a note to correct that at some point. Teasing shy ones and straight ones (preferably a combination of both) was always an amusing pastime for all involved. Mostly him, of course. The flirtatious one. The Italian grinned deliberately up at the lower-ranked hybrid, one eyelid flashing in the barest suggestion of a wink before he took the hammer Hadley offered him.
"Grazie, Hadley," he said warmly. "It's lovely to see you both. Shall we get to it?" Sebastian picked up a long plank and held it up lengthways against a window, covering the most area possible. "Do try and cover as much glass with one board as you can, gents," he called over his shoulder as he pressed the wooden plank against the target with his shoulder, grabbing a few nails.
That was the most wisdom he could offer before he smashed a nail into the wood with surprising force, sinking it to the head with three powerful blows, the first of which barely avoided crushing his slender fingers. He managed to nail in the sides then, and the top with some difficulty. He wasn't built to handle the heights that Hadley and what's-his-name could reach.
"What's your name?" he asked, tossing his head back over his shoulder for a moment. It would be nice to know in case he had to call for help.
