If her weekends and holidays were anything to go by, it wouldn’t be for very long.

Gavin’s tone amused her to the point where she wanted nothing more than to point out all the ways in which having a spot in her schedule was to his advantage, but refrained from doing so. She didn’t need more people trampling through her office and taking up her time, there was enough of that already. In the end, she was content with a “suit yourself.” His loss.

It was her turn to slow her pace and roll her eyes. The de Talone case... it was a stain on her department, and it marred her succession to department head. She wasn’t surprised Wes cut and run... aka went to Australia for family reasons ... it was perfect timing on his part, and now she was responsible for picking up the slack. “Depend what you mean... we’re no closer to a recapture than we were when she fled, but we’re making inroads with security and protocol review,” or you know, she was, “this mess, will never be repeated again.” Over her dead body, literally.

As for getting through the Junior Undersecs office... it would be as easy as a slice of pie. “I’m sure my toilet seat has greater defense against intrusion than your offices,” so it was in no way going to stop her, should she want to invade his privacy. The toilet seat thing, a joke. He knew that right? She wasn’t THAT paranoid.
Emily shrugged “I manage,” truth be told, it was ok... and until things fell into place she was willing to sit tight. There would be plenty of time fore running around later. “Oh please, feel free to stop by and witness my sitting patiently for yourself, I’m sure in the meantime hell is enjoying the frosty weather.” Cue smirk.



Now he was laughing, not the loud kind, or well it was more of chuckle. "You? Lazy? Comfortable thing? Right. Maybe in the same week I'll head down to the Atrium and hand out free hugs." The idea was that unimaginable. From what she'd said back during the break, she wasn't exactly on board with doing nothing. It made her stir crazy. No way she'd pull it off.

As for suiting himself....."I always do." He said with a small shrug. It was true. He might as well had. Everyone did what was best for them, he wasn't going to be that one selfless sucker who got the short end of the stick. "You do too, I can tell." Nod.

And they were slowing down again? He stopped and looked to her. Good news? Bad news? Essentially they'd gotten nowhere and the woman was still at large. "No leads then, I take it." Must be rough, mostly for her if he thought about. For someone who always liked being in control of the situation. The way she talked about her job, he could only imagine it was eating her alive. No doubt she'd over exert just to fix things if she had to and he was in no position to tell her not to. "No idea where she might have run off to either?" The woman was a major risk to the public given her track record. He was just trying to understand the situation a little better.

Now he was outright laughing and considering adding extra charms to his locks. "Point taken, I'll play nice and get you those stats."

She managed? "Spoken like a true Politician. Have you considered a move to my Department?" And an invitation to her office? "Brilliant, I'll stop by the moment I'm bored enough. It should be entertaining." Or not, but a good excuse to invade her office nonetheless.
