Emily hadn't stepped foot in a childcare before... and Merlin she couldn't believe she was doing it now. Her eyes where everywhere, because despite the fact that the boy had managed to keep living and breathing by himself til now, it was officially her duty to ensure his personal safety. She was going mummy on him, sue her.

He was bored, this was boring. "Can't I go to work with you?" he asked softly, "pleeeeaaassseeee, I'll be good. I'll be quiet, you won't even know I'm there." It would be better than sitting here. Zeke wondered if perhaps he could find his way back after she left, because she didn't seem to be changing her mind. His head snapped up as a man approached, she wasn't leaving him with this one was she?

"Exactly.. I don't need you sneaking off, I need to know where you are," she pointed out, not allowing herself to fall for his trap, knowing full well he just wanted to explore the underground. "Aaahh, Mr. Cresswell," Emily greeted warmly, inclining her head in greeting. Her eyes darted down to the boy in anticipation of his response, he was at least well mannered, something she didn't need to worry about. There would be no embarrassing her in front of people.

... Zeke blinked a few times, before a smile crept over his face. "I'm Zeke," he supplied brightly, wondering if perhaps the man could be useful. Did they do field trips? Could they get ice cream? Could they visit Emily? He was sure there were things he could do to make sure he was sent to Emily. If all else failed.

"I'll need a place for him until we can get him enrolled in school," Emily added after the brief introductions. "Hopefully not for more than a week." That being said, there was the matter of after school care too, which she hadn't thought through. The kid was already proving to be a handful, and this was only the beginning.

Anthony was instantly struck by the young boy's bright smile. A pleasant child! Oh, he could most definitely deal with this. "It's very nice to meet you, Zeke. I'm Anthony." If only all the children could be as well-mannered as this...Yes, he'd need to summon Miss Smith right after getting the paperwork squared away. Also, he had more questions for Zeke...but legal formalities FIRST.

"He's more than welcome to stay for however long you need, Miss Browne." Could he call her Emily? Would that break with the professionalism? "There are a few forms to fill out; your basic information, his basic information, his interests, hobbies, allergies. As you know, we do have Healers on-site that will attend to the kids if any illnesses arise...or injuries." Scraped knees, etc. They happened.

Collecting said forms, he slid them across the desk to her, also providing a self-inking quill. It was one office supply he splurged on. "I'll call Miss Smith in here and you can meet her before you leave." Athena Smith would be, after all, the woman looking after little Zeke here. Anthony would be in and out, as he also had other duties to attend to.

"Do you have any questions so far?"
