He shook his head, still smiling. "Most never have, or ever do." A glance back at the people gathering to leave -- Mallia glanced back and gave a little wave, and he raised a hand briefly to her in return, and then took a breath and looked back to Foulques, waiting.
Any time now... Aaaaany time....
When they did open the barrier to leave again... it was a bit less dramatic than one might have been expecting. If Foulques hadn't been anticipating it, he might've even missed it at first -- a sense of Chell's presence there near him, on much the same sort of level of awareness that sometimes smaller clues could have amounted to, even without having consciously noted him standing there.
But what, exactly, came across might or might not have been any surprise whatsoever: while Chell's attention was turned toward Foulques, he wasn't pushing at all... more that it seemed his attention was... waiting? And he was about as calm as ever... discounting, at least, that bit of what seemed a mix of hope and mild excitement -- anticipation? It was enough to know he was looking forward to whatever the lancer might decide to try showing him, at any rate.
And if said lancer tried it... he might find that Chell's abilities worked both ways. While Chell's attention was on this particular task, if Foulques wanted to try getting a better look at him, in a sense... he very well could.
