Ah, alright. He was going to pretend she was impressed then. "Yeah, they," you know, the Muggles, "can build nice things for themselves -- and us -- to enjoy on occasion," he leaned in to say. Don't worry, boss; he wasn't breaking the statute of secrecy, even though he had already charmed the place up and down. "Would you like a drink?" He sure would.

Fletcher also picked up his menu to scan their cocktail selection, and moved it a second too slowly to hide his somewhat interested expression. She was glad he'd won the bid? Huh. Because of... familiarity? Wow, such a compliment. ~~Not.~~ "But don't you know just about everyone at work?" Fletcher looked up from the menu, his brow a little bit furrowed. "I'm just new. I thought this was a good opportunity, you see." Or was January worried that someone... unsavory would win the bid? He was suddenly reminded of some headline he'd read about her in the Daily Prophet, a few years back...

"Didn't you use to have a stalker or something?" he started to chuckle, looking back down at the menu. "Good thing that guy didn't win, huh." Heh heh.

Whether or not she was cold and icy or just not very good at socializing, well... that was up to him to decide. But she was still finding it a bit odd that she was going on a "date" with her newest hire.

"Yes, they can, it just takes them quite a bit longer," she said with a slightly amused smile. Her hands automatically went to the napkin at her place setting. She unfolded it and placed it on her lap while she glanced at the menu, looking over the drink options.

It was true she knew just about everyone at work. Though, some workers on the lower levels she didn't know too well, since they were so far away. "Perhaps, but, like you say, this is a good opportunity. After all, we'll be working close together." Is that what he was implying? Or was he trying to find everything about her so he could butter her up or something?

She laughed a little at the mention of her stalker. Thankfully it was something she could laugh about now. "Yes, I did. And yes... very good thing." Though in that case, she wouldn't have actually gone on the date.
