It was more than her heart could take in truth so hearing him not being picky was music to her ears.

"You can have these." She said, sliding a pack of jelly slugs over to him. They were Alice's favourite last she'd bothered to inquire but not a true favourite of hers so the loss was minimal.

Lex ripped at her own packet of chocolate frog, eager to get some sugar in after all that work but somehow she managed to have a pause at his question. Did she want a desk? The young woman looked down at the one she had her feet kicked up on, then over at the others in the room before resting her gaze on her special corner.

"Not particularly." Lex admitted with a small shrug. She bit at the head contemplatively before continuing. "A desk is too real and too confining for my taste. It concretes the fact I have a proper job and that's not what YATI life is for me. It's not a job, it's fun, it's thrilling, it's exciting; all things a desk is not."
"Jelly slugs." Sabel mused, taking the treat. Not his favorite, but he wasn't about to complain. It was a gift after all. And from Alexa's goodie-bag, that was saying a lot. "Thanks very much."

He copied her, tearing into the packet and pulling out one of the slugs. Plopping one into his mouth, he chewed slowly, curious as to Alexa's answer.

And...he was disappointed. It was sure to show on his expression to, as his eyes went to his desk and then back to Alexa. He wanted to ask if she was one-hundred percent positive, but this was Alexa. The girl who knew what she wanted.

For a moment he was quiet, finishing off the slug and gathering his thoughts. "You won't be a YATI for forever, though. And, that thrilling fun may start to look more like work. It's helpful to have your own space. Better than writing reports in the hallways." He spared her a small smile.

Perhaps it was best just to cut through it. Shifting his weight a little, Sabel fussed with the next slug in the package. "Why I ask, Alexa, is because I would like you to have my desk. You have a lot of promise as an Auror, and I'd like someone to make use of it." He didn't know what else he could pass on to her. A wand had crossed his mind, but he'd discarded that pretty quickly. He was rather attached to both of his, and wouldn't feel comfortable without them.
