Obviously.

Otherwise he wouldn't have been here, waiting for their arrival. Come on, what was taking so long!? The man checked his watch, just to find out that he had only been standing here for five seconds. Five EXCRUCIATING seconds though. Five seconds? Felt more like five YEARS.

Was he being dramatic? Perhaps. But the point remained. Why couldn't some of the budget go towards updating the lifts?

Typically, Eliora spent this time of the day in her office or checking in on her employees that weren't out in the field. Not today, though. She had just sat through a meeting for two hours and needed to stretch her legs out and find another department to hide in for a twenty minute nap. While she loved her job and was still revelling in the new responsibilities as Department Head.. she couldn't quite manage to be excited about sitting in with the Muggle-Worthy Excuse Committee meetings. Holding a position on the committee was all well and good when they talked for two hours about the boring things.

So, with five cups of coffee following behind her and a notepad of doodles she had done during the meeting, Eli waited for the first lift available.

She had fallen in beside ~~workbae~~ James with a grin and gestured behind her to the coffee. "Go ahead. You know you want one." And he also knew that she'd let him have one.
