She certainly hadn't expected to see Emily in the lab, but it was no matter at all. It was just good to see the woman, even if she was here on official business. "I've been fairly well, thank you. Working for 3 days straight without so much as a break, but I finally managed to sneak away for a bit." She replied with a conspiratorial wink. "And yourself? No doubt just as busy?"

The woman took a few steps into the lab and began scanning the tables. "The de Talone investigation? I thought that was momentarily on hold because of the zombie infestation? I'll try to find what information they do have, but I"m not sure how much I'll be able to give you. The infestation came at a bit of a bad time...."

Esme worked her way towards the fling cabinets, not seeing anything on her cursory glance of the countertops. She pulled open the drawers one by one, pulling out a folder here and there.

"Looks like this is what we have. Listing of evidence, mostly, from the locket and orb that was found, and that of which was found in her Hogsmeade shop. Also seems to have a listing of observations regarding the charming of the orb and also some copies of the letter found in one of the shop's books written to de Talone by an LM who apparently has ties to the States. And a bit of information from the secret lab that was found underneath the shop...quite accidentally."
