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.
It was perhaps four bites into her chocolate frog before Lex realized that this really WAS one of those life lesson talks from Sabel. Won't be a YATI forever, one day it'll feel like work. Merlin she didn't even DO anything this time! Why in Merlin's beard was she getting lectured?? It was that time of the week wasn't it?

SIGH.

What was the best course of action? Nodding along?--No, too obvious, he'd know she wasn't listening.....eeehhh....think Lex, think.

Whoa but then he was GIVING her his desk and telling her she had potential?

"Circe, you're not dying are you?" This fell into some real sentimental stuff. The kind you said when you knew the end was near but Sabel was careful. No one could out him in the field and he didn't act poisoned...his face wasn't changing colour, he wasn't staggering, his hair wasn't falling out. Strange. "If I take your desk, where will you sit? I don't think Rainey will appreciate me stealing something from an actual Auror."
