 Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight
There were productive days, and there were nothing-days, and then there were days that were so busy that Jake could barely keep track of what was going on. Today had so far fallen into the category of the third option, and, for that reason, it was time for a well deserved break. Crime and the associated (and frankly unnecessary) paperwork could just wait for a few minutes.
From the noises of discontent coming from the individual he had just followed into the break room, he assumed he was not the only one currently of that mindset.
"Drinking three cups of that stuff is akin to prompting a medical emergency, McNiven," he remarked, already in a better humour than he had been back at his own desk now that a chance to decompress for a moment was finally in his sights. He bypassed the coffee, tea, and the fridge and instead headed straight for his favourite couch, which had sunk so far down over time that he felt rather like he was in a meeting with his own knees. He compensated for this by stretching his legs out and propping them up on the coffee table, which was conveniently at equal height with the couch. Auditore wouldn't mind; he was a tall kid - err... bloke, rather - he understood the need for stretching out the legs from time to time.
Jake looked back over to Payton again, considering him for just a moment. "... Though I wouldn't dare deny you any caffeine right now."
