It was more of an awkward, nervousness that he had been greeted with rather than something else. Maybe a newbie to the Ministry which Gideon more than understood given his own experiences a few years back.

“Yeah…wonderful,” he answered as he finished making his coffee and turned to debate where to sit. The Level Three employee finally opting for one of the random chairs in the space, close enough to chat with his unsure companion or ignore if it went in that direction. But for now, he was going to take a chance and be nice. “What level do you work on?” Gideon asked, figuring it was as innocent a question as he could ask.

Even though it had been a couple of months, Zander still felt very out of place. It was probably his own fault for cooping himself up in his cubicle just about every day for the first month or so... But he really wanted to make sure he did a good job. This was his first adult job and he needed it to work out. And it was really hard to make friends in the real world??? This wasn't like Hogwarts, he couldn't just chat up his cubicle mate. Everyone already had their friends. Which was what made him so nervous. How do you even talk to fellow employees???

Case and point.

"Uh, Seven," he nodded before taking a sip of his drink. Games and Sports, did he need to say that part? Because Zander didn't recognize the rest of the levels by their number yet..B.
But for all he knew, this guy could be like a ministry veteran or something. And Zander wasn't about to offend anyone. "You?"

Oh, also. "I'm Zander by the way," was he supposed to hold out his hand??? Was this a handshake moment??? The blonde wasn't sure, but he stuck out his hand anyway.

Geez.
