Fortunately, he had managed to find this gem early on. And you know what, Zander liked it for it's personality. The mismatched chairs and funky lighting made him feel more at home. It almost resembled his own flat in London where he and Damien had a collection of strange furniture too. After grabbing a cup of hot coffee, he wondered around the small space before choosing his usual seat on one of the squishy sofas.

The best part about this nook was perhaps the fact that it was so quiet. Zander Adair was definitely a people-person, but... Maybe he just wasn't a Ministry-People kind of person?
The thing about working at the Ministry was…there was a ton of people. And while Gideon wasn’t as closed off as he had been the first few years of Hogwarts or immediately after graduation, he was more like his father in preferring smaller, quieter interactions. That’s why a break room that wasn’t quite a break room was ideal in his mind when he had found out about it. No crowd like the level 7 cafeteria and lessened the chance of being found for work in the Level 3 break room. It wasn’t like it was on the beaten path either. Plus, it had the benefit of a hot beverage that wasn’t all too bad.

When he arrived this time, pushing aside the tapestry that mostly hid the passage, Gideon found he wasn’t alone. “Hello,” he greeted simply and politely as he moved to make himself a mug of fresh coffee for his liking.
