Granted these were all things she possessed anyway but people only really seemed to notice when you had a badge on. Funny how that worked.

Her brows crinkled showing her confusion before he clarified his next question. The name Collarbin...? He wanted to know the meaning? For a moment she didn't know what to say. It wasn't meant to mean anything...not really. She'd never given it much thought. Finally, she shrugged. "It doesn't actually have a meaning Sir, it's just a name that bears clever resemblance to your own name that I came up with." Alexa wasn't a Ravenclaw. Adding too much thought to something killed the fun.

"Just a name I like really."
Well? Why was she surprised, even? It must have a mean -

Oh.

He didn't answer right away, but tried out both of them in his mind. He even looked at the ceiling without focus while he tried them out - he was that concentrated.

"Actually..." more calculation, "I think... yeah. They resemble each other." He straightened up in his chair then and leaned forward towards her. "So are you absolutely sure it's not meant to humiliate me? A name you use to gossip about me?"

HMM?
