HUNTING him down and showing up at his door with a bouquet of astronomically festive lollipops like that and reading him the ~~affectionate~~ riot act about subjects he never imagined a former student would address him about...while holding his daughter. Work at the UK Space Agency had been great, far better than he had expected and on par with his previous experience working with NASA...but also just as heart-wrenching.

Perhaps more given there was no injury to blame for things this go around.

"No need to be nervous," he assured his pet rock...and himself. "You survived 11 years of teenage hormones and tears." Blue eyes glancing around the table, he looked for a goody bag with his name on it - because that was how this worked, yes? "Which color is Mysteries? Or is that a ........ mystery?"

Har har.

His second Orientation here and the man wasn't any more enthused than he was last year. Don't get him wrong, he loved his job and the way he'd finally gotten his office smelling just right but this could have been one of those events best attended from his bed.

Maddox meandered his way through the new employees waiting to get their goodie bags but stopped quite suddenly when a particular scent caught his nose. It smelled like.....well...frankly it smelled like "Airey?"

AAAaaaIIiiRRRrrrEEEeeeYYYYyyYYy!!!!!!

Quick as that, forgetting all the energy saving he'd been doing, the man shrunk into the form of a cat and bounded toward his friend. With a clear spring in his step, the small black figure with large yellow eyes pounced on the man, nuzzling him and purring BECAUSE HE MISSED HIM. Did he know?? Did he miss him too???? How was NASA?? He should ask, but later when he could speak. Had to do this while he could before the man freaked and threw him....far.
