Apparently he had taken longer at the coffee cart than he'd thought, seeing as by the time Dorian had arrived down to the cafeteria, he noticed Aron already there and reprimanding a poor Ministry worker over her drink. Poor girl, he thought idly, taking several more steps into the area as he sipped from his coffee cup. At least he knew his wasn't contaminated, seeing as he hadn't gotten it down here. In fact, upon glancing at the menu posted over the juice bar, it didn't appear he would have been able to get it here anyhow. Maybe there was another good excuse not to have come down to visit when the food court had opened, aside from the possibility that most people who had done so were now being herded up to Level Two for quarantining. Odds were he, or someone, should smooth things over before this investigation veered off into arguments like had happened out in Hogsmeade, though. He certainly didn't want to risk bodily injury again just to break tension.

At least the infusion of caffeine had relaxed his muscles enough that the stiffness wasn't quite as apparent as he joined the small group. "Esme," he greeted the forensic investigator, giving her a nod, before turning his attention back to his CMECer and the poor woman being reprimanded. There had definitely been a point to confiscating the drink, but the rudeness wasn't exactly called for. Even though she had submitted to Aron's swab easily enough. "We can add this to the rest of the evidence, whether or not there's anything amiss here," he said calmly. "It isn't so much the results that led us here, either. It's the evidence. The only connection we've found, besides the fact all the infected people work here at the Ministry, is that they all visited here at one point or another and presumably partook in the food and drink available," he continued, making sure to emphasize the reason why things had started so badly. "Perhaps we should make sure to go outside this area if we get hungry or thirsty during the investigation. At least until we've determined that it isn't anything in this area?"

The juice bar, that was. Separating the field of investigation into zones was an appropriate plan of attack anyhow, as far as he knew. Esme could verify that if need be, and in any case, going about this all calmly would keep everything professional and, above all things, safe for the team.
