Tam had been picking at her salad a bit here and there, but honestly didn't pay much attention. "It's great, thank you for asking." Yep. POLITE MAN.

"Pardon my being so forward, but why is an obviously successful, handsome man like yourself single?" she asked with a smirk. Was he a nutcase? SHE NEEDED TO KNOW.

"Now that is the million Galleon question," Rex grinned. "I believe it has something to do with the other half wanting to be adored by the public while spending my money, or the one who thought I could make her a Quidditch star." He laughed. "I guess I've done a poor job when it comes to selecting the right mate. Many women don't seem to understand the complexities of the job and how I might have to cancel dinner because I'm needed in Oslo for a meeting in the morning. You see, my job does require me to travel . . . a lot. And you know from working in the Ministry, sometimes we just can't escape work no matter how hard we try."
