They were empty anyways. Had been since the article came out. It had been a precaution he had taken, just because it was a simple one to make. Now, it meant something a little different.
He watched her for a moment, glad she didn't argue against his request. His smile grew a bit as she made herself right at home. Good. No protests, no questions. It was one of the things he liked about her. She didn't over-complicate things, didn't over-think. A curse for a lot of the staff of the MLE.
"I'm glad you find it comfortable. The location is nice too. No draft, but a good view. Doesn't get too cold in the winter, despite being near the windows. And it's a good vantage point for the rest of the office. Out of the way, but within earshot of pretty much all the going on's."
Rapping his knuckles on the desk, he drew back in his chair. "Been my desk since I was a first year YATI, like yourself." He gave her a grin. "Yes, we got desks in those days."
At the invitation, Lex attempted to kick her feet up but the motion was slowed by the cramping legs that seemed to only move at their pace. Finally, with much effort, she got her feet up and shuffled around until she was comfy enough.
"It's a nice seat, I'll give you that, Dakest but what's that got to do with me?"
For real, for real. Hazel eyes wandered about the office, considering all he'd said before landing on her decorated little patch of floor in the corner.
"I don't have much of a draft over there." Not really. It was low down there.
Alexa leaned back in the chair some, swivelling in it from right to left and back again. With much discomfort, she pulled her bag into her lap and fished for a chocolate frog.
"Want something?" Other than a chocolate frog? She had lollipops, jelly slugs, sugar quills--okay maybe he couldn't have those....fizzing whizbees, cauldron cak--maybe not those either....oh Merlin.
