The surprise of it has him swish the paper up to his face like a hand-fan for a moment with a short laugh. He knew there was something going on here - the mystery had been whether or not they'd admit it to him. He likes Prin Ghost very much already.
Mindful that they're still in public, Quirrel quickly faces front again after he's gotten a good enough look. If the Prin is keeping up the facade, so will he! Let it never be said he can't play along.
"Oh, would you look at that," he remarks, without looking at that, because they might as well pretend nothing is happening for a little while longer. He sounds very pleased. "Now I have seen it all. My goodness."
He runs a thumb along the top edge of the invoice, folding it down a bit to minimise the risk of a papercut, and without looking he holds it back and up into the little one's reach. They may touch!
(The invoice also conveniently shields them from passers-by. By anyone else's perspective, the Archivist is trying to offer the Prin an important document, and that's all! Nothing to see here.)
