She said reflectively as she chewed the head off a chocolate frog.

"Don't reckon they're in need of any more chairs."

Her attention turned back to him at the inquiry about her patrols and the places she happened to run into. The smallest glance was given to his lunch and the way he stretched to occupy the entire couch. "Not most....not yet anyway. We do patrols by roster and I haven't been given specific levels yet--got down into Mysteries once, they have a death chamber, souls trying to suck you in and all that." Wait......."I dunno if I'm meant to tell you that...but you're MLE and this'll go into our records anyway."

There were a couple good reasons why Lex couldn't be an Unspeakable...this was one of them. "Got to sit in on a court hearing last week, but that was mostly me forgetting I had patrols to do." Bright side? It was an interesting trial.

"Really?" Dale replied, raising his eyebrows in an expression of mock surprise. "I think this place could use a few more seating options, myself. It's kind of lacking in that department." He looked around at the room, chockablock with different types of chair, and took another sip of his coffee.

He listened to Lex even as he took a bite of his sandwich, nodding along as she spoke and-... raising an eyebrow at that little snippet about the Department of Mysteries. He couldn't help but smile. "No worries. I'm basically sworn to secrecy in my job-" scribe, secrets, lots of court things and that, you know "-so I won't go blabbing."

But then, would anyone really admit to having intentions of going off and revealing state secrets? Even admitting it for a laugh? Dale hoped not, but he knew one idiot who might.

"Ahh, court hearings," he repeated, a wistful look on his face as he peered off into the middle-distance. "I find myself in a lot of those. Mostly misdemeanors and official warnings, but occasionally there's something juicy going on." Ahem. But he was totes professional, so maybe it was a good idea to shut up at that point.

More coffee was sipped.
