Add the fact that Vic was a woman and it became almost definite that he was missing something. He could have poked around for answers but didn't for fear of new tears forming that he was no more adept at handling than the first set that disappeared before really getting far. "Think I'm liking Mariel more already." He said with an approving nod, but it was to be expected, he approved of anyone that got in the way of people trying to work too hard. Vic classifying Emily as 'quite the worker' would have been taken as an understatement a few months ago but he would admit she was making improvement. "Think I'm finally rubbing off on her. She doesn't fully believe it's a good thing but I'll have to work on that too. You'd be surprized at how relaxed she can get." He might have been surprized too if he didn't already expect it as part of the vacation conditions.

There was that other little hitch, the fact that she didn't actually have reason to be Department hopping and he wouldn't condone it either if it'd get in the way of productivity--something that was already being hindered by this whole lockout but lunch breaks were fine. "Life gets dull when you limit yourself to two places." He commented lightly, not by any means judging, just planting little seeds that would later blossom into the idea that she needed to get out more and to other places. Gavin wasn't going to pry but he could leave subtle hints just the same. Oh? Coffee? He didn't get that anymore, not unless it was morning coffee with Emily. The building wasn't safe, brewing coffee in there was like asking for a stomach infection. "Could check with Aron, ask him how he manages the good coffee." As a helpful suggestion befire shrugging at her teasing, a smile turning up the corner of his lips. "It was nothing grand, quite overplayed if you ask me. I'm discovering more and more that not everyone shares my sense of humour." Did it bother him? ......No. Should it?

Curious about the ice comment. It was expected, this was Vic afterall. [b]"Ice."[/i] He said with a firm nod and an amused expression at the memory. There was definitely a new appreciation for the stuff. "We stopped by a Christmas Market over in Paris, went ice-skating and I won." Okay....that might have been a somewhat distorted version but the basics were there. He DID take her ice-skating, they'd made a wager and he WON. Nevermind he'd technically cheated, Emily didn't mind and he got what he wanted. Double win. It was hard to not be concerned about her though. Not after knowing her while she was up and about and happy looking. He fixed his eyes on her for a moment, knowing fully well women hardly meant it when they said they were fine. "If there's anything you need help with, you can ask. Might not end up being of any real help but I can try." And in the end that was all anyone could really do, right?


Victoria have a smile and couldn’t help but chuckle, “I knew you would, it’s why I wanted to introduce you at one point.” but Gavin freaked about that if she remembered correctly. “and I’m not sure she’d mind if I took work home with me, Merlin knows I have enough to keep me busy, but I think she’d probably rather keep my documents in one place while I’m in transition of a place to live. The leaky probably isn’t the best place to do Quidditch schedules and trading card designs.” Not that she ever really left her room once there, but still not the best place for things to be. “Well its good she is relaxing more. I always try to get her to go out for a girl’s night, but she never seems to have the time or she just doesn’t want to.” maybe the second part was true, but lately really Vic wondered why anyone wanted to be around her.


She listened to Gavin, but really didn’t know why a Quidditch PR would need to go to the other departments. “Well if I ever find a reason to need to go to the other departments than I will jump at that.” That was probably all she could give him. Though he had a point. She wouldn’t mind getting to know more people, but why would people want to get to know her. Honestly she wasn’t just dealing with Bart now alone. She was going to have three children on her hands alone when they weren’t all at their fathers. Her social life was certainly being put on hold for heaven knows how long. “Maybe I’ll just have to take a bus trip to find your building and come visit you for lunch or something one day.” Emily wouldn’t mind if she went to visit Gavin right? He was her friend after all. She thought about the Aron comment, but really she was fine with bringing her own from home or just taking a walk. She needed little outside breaks now anyway. She chuckled at his next word, “Well I think it would have still been fun to be a bug on the wall to see it. Oh come on not everyone gets Gavin Isaacs sense of humor I can’t imagine this.” She liked the fact that she could push herself out of her own mind and talk about Gavin and his doings. This was good for her and she could freely smile and chuckle it was nice.

Oh so ice meant actual ice, she got it now, pushing things out of her head that had popped in there. “Oh ice skating sounds fun. I haven’t done that since I was a child. You won? Well that’s good.. I think.” What he won she wasn’t going to ask. It was none of her business really. She glanced at him and nodded with a forced smile, “Thank you that means a lot, but right now just having conversations like this is all the help I need.” Really no one could help her inside her head nor with her heart at the moment, so she would have to work both out on her own. Thought getting out of her own head was helping both at the same time.
