SPOILER!!: Rusty

Good, it was settled then. "It's a date then," she mused, emphasising the word. As distasteful as it was, the word date had various connotations, and she knew what she meant when she said it, even if Rusty didn't. "I'll keep you posted." She wasn't sure how long it'd all take. Really it ought not take very long, but seeing as she wasn't running the show, she couldn't say for sure.

Pushing the salad stuff around her plate, Emily decided she wouldn't be finishing it. Instead, she nursed her coffee in her hand.

Ahhhhh! Now THIS was an interesting turn in conversation. Pushing her plate aside, Emily leant forward on the table, arms resting against the surface, propping herself up. "And do I strike you as the type to form unhealthy habits?" Because if she did, she'd like to know why. Or if not, why not. Normally she didn't care what people thought, but considering Rusty seemed to be the only one who really understood her, really got her, she was keen to hear his evaluation.

Emily raised her cup too, only slightly, in mock toasting. She didn't care about the galleons, but she wasn't going to say no to the raise. That being said, she wouldn't allow herself to be taken advantage of either. "To making the most of it," she replied.

And since he didn't know what else had been thrown at the YATI after his department's part in it all was done, it'd likely have a few unexpected twists just like a good muggle movie. Except real. Pensieve viewings were far better. He was nearly done demolishing his food unfortunately. Rusty eyed the remainder almost mournfully. He could do with twice as much really but it was just so pricey around these parts and he really had to save his galleons. "So there is." He agreed amicably. "But some things are habit forming even from the first." And for some people the feeling of power that came from ordering a memory wipe or implant certainly had an addictive side, it was part of why the testing for Obliviators was so stringent; had to be sure the personality type fit with the work without pesky megalomaniac tendencies developing on the side. "Loving what you do is important but nobody should settle for the bare minimum when the required skill set is so high. So I'm glad to hear it. Here's to substantial raises." He lifted his cup and idly wondered how long it would take him to earn a bonus. That was a downside to a new job, you had to prove yourself all over again.
