"You do not want to try that." He warned his boss out of loyalty.
Finding a tray of water glasses, Vic went and drowned an entire one in ONE go. Ahhhhhh! Much better. He came back to Emily to resume their... silent food scooping.
...
"So, how're you?" He realized he hadn't asked her that, and he realized he meant it literally. How was she? Like, really how?
Good good? Was he trying to convince her or himself? .... Emily didn't make a thing of it, instead she nod in understanding and moved on. Whatever he was trying looked quite good. Though, judging from his expression maybe not? She couldn't help but smirk as she leaned in closer to inspect the dish, sniffing to see if she could detect an aroma. "Really?" she questioned, taking one up with her fingers regardless. "You know I'm a masochist, don't you?" she queried with a light chuckle before popping the bite in her mouth.
It was spicy, so she could understand Vic's reaction to it. It wasn't so bad though, not when you had a taste for fire. "You should try my Uncle's pickled chilies," she teased. A part of her wondered if the man still made them... the possibility seemed slim.
Judging by the audible reaction of another woman, the spice wasn't going down very well. Pansies.
"Adjusting," she replied with a shrug, "but otherwise, quite well." Especially well now that she didn't have to avoid those Healers. Not that having private lunches in her office with the Senior Undersecretary was all that bad, it wasn't.
