He still kept is tucked away in one of the inner pockets of his jacket, just in case. He was, after all, a pretty unlucky guy and he didn’t need to have a Velma moment on top of everything else that usually happened to him.

In fact, it was due to his usual string of luck that it had taken him another two weeks to make his way up to the greenhouses because as soon as he had entered the Ever Locked Room and had a potion exploded. He’d had to spend the day cleaning up the mess and it hadn’t even been his own concoction! Never-the-less, his black hair was once again sporting odd yellow-orange dots from where some of the potion had landed on his head. He also might have smelled faintly of slightly burnt chocolate.

Summary – his potion ingredient gathering and apology to Mariana were largely overdo. At least, that’s what Adam was thinking as he walked into the Level 4 area. Part of him hoped he didn’t run into Mariana as he feared doing so would make him relive the embarrassment of Zita and pompous fluff head from the gala. ”Hello?” he called out. Things would be so much easier, if he could just bypass this finding an employee nonsense and go straight into the greenhouses and find a worker there. But Rules were rules...

Even so, maybe he could get Airey to talk to the department head about giving him better access. It wasn’t like Adam didn’t know his way around plants.


Mariana had been going back and forth to the greenhouses all morning, taking notes and returning when they were complete to pass them off. Truth be told, she was having a wonderfully productive day and it had her feeling all kinds of cheerful. It was why she'd volunteered to go see what the man calling out wanted when she heard his voice, deciding she had the time to spare a few minutes to help someone. If you were feeling good, it was nice to pay that forward, yeah? Well, here she went to do just that.

"Hi, how can I he--" Oh. She knew this guy. Adam, right? The glasses were the give away, though she was glad to see he seemed to be fairing better with them than he had been when they'd met. "Hey, nice to see you again. Are you looking for someone?"
