After hearing him out, the red head smiled serenely and gestured in the general direction of her office. "You've just missed the action, actually. One of the mutants we were looking after found its way into my office and, well, destroyed the place." Because of the fear it was feeling, of course. Harmony harbored no ill-will towards the poor thing. "Sources tell me there might be more roaming around the area, though." Or was he aware of that as well? Harmony decided not to divulge any more information just yet.
Simon was aware of the scrutiny he had been given before the handshake but didn't comment. Whatever she thought didn't hinder her eventual response so all was well...for now at least. "And you as well...Harmony," he answered, tentatively chosing her first name since she had in turn chosen to use his own.

It was his turn to listen as the woman explained what had transpired in her department...neigh...in her own office shortly before he had made his way to Level 4, his gaze momentarily flashing to follow her gesture to the room in question. If only he had been quicker in his movements, but then he could have missed something critical in his last stop so it was a dicey attempt at balancing time and effort. He was only one person after all. "It was re-caught?" he checked, though her demeanor seemed to hint at that fact. One needed to be sure in case the woman was just naturally calm about these types of situations.

She was creatures head after all.

And wait...she had mentioned the mutants being their charges?!

Strange people.

"Yes, I was told there had been multiple sightings," he said with a nod, confirming her own sources. "Though so far, I've managed not to find anything myself." His latest chance being the closest.
