As he moved to wash his hands (one could never be too careful in a potions laboratory), Dalton stiffened ever so slightly. A meeting with the Department Head? Guilia could dress it down all she wanted, but it still sounded ominous to him. Of course, he wanted to come across well, but not quite obsequious, so he paused before the temptation to run straight to Eliora's office overcame him. "When would she like this meeting?" he asked, trying to seem as though he wasn't worried.
The Italian uncrossed her arms, instead leaning her hip against the counter as she tried to give him a reassuring smile. Silently, she thought he’d look handsome if he smiled - like actually smiled… but she hadn’t seen him do that very much since they had both started… so she figured he just didn’t like smiling. Which was definitely okay. If he knew her family, he’d know that smiling definitely wasn’t a normal thing either.

Well, mostly. There was Zia Ciosa… but she loved to smile as much as she loved to bake. It was what they all loved her for. Her baking and her café …. But you didn’t cross Zia Ciosa, not if you didn’t want cut off from the best coffee and bruttiboni in Italy.

Hmmm. She liked how straight to the point Dalton was. She could appreciate that. “Eliora either has an appointment available at 4pm this afternoon or tomorrow morning at 9.30am.” She gave him a very small reassuring small because she wasn’t one for smiling either and nodded at him. “I was told that you could choose whichever was best for you around your potions.” While potions weren’t her own fortay, her second cousin’s Auberto, Romolo and Silvia were constantly informing them that their potions came first; that they couldn’t simply leave them behind regardless of the emergency.
