As he shows learning or intellect, she responds with individuality or, as she might display thinking then he could respond with rebellion and fickleness – according to the situation and individuals involved. When things are working well, words like electrified, amazed and refreshed may apply, and on a bad day it may be better to use descriptions like bad, spiritless and sleepy.
