Which he guessed was natural, life goes on as they say. Perhaps this meeting was caused by faith and they could become friends again.

Ironic... That was a perfect way to say it. He felt rather proud hearing that and he grinned slowly. The grin turned in to a confused expression as Zander suddenly mentioned he resembled a certain Sherlock...something. "I have no idea who he is but I take that as a compliment" he laughed.

Going back to Hogwarts was out of option though. Even if he was allowed again he would not go and when the name Flamsteed fell his posture changed. He unfolded his arms and held them by his side, his jaw clenched for a second and he did not look at Zander but at the ground for a brief moment before he remembered he was a man now and not a teenager and he looked back up. "I know" he said curtly before letting out a small sigh. "Actually, I've been meaning to meet him for some time now but what on earth do I even say?"

............................."Nursery?" Did Zander have a child?! No, that wouldn't be possible cause then he would have known where the nursery. What kind of father would leave their child in a place they don't know where to find? So that wasn't it. Hopefully... Cause if it was he was going to judge his friend so hard. "Its near the daycare at the specialty area" he said and pointed his finger in the direction. Always know the way. "You're not hiding an offspring there right?" he laughed.

please say no...

"Oh," the blonde wasn't exactly heartbroken, but... a little confused. Kevin had worked here for a few months now, but hadn't ever reached out? "Do you like it here?" he asked. Kevin hadn't ever been one for structure, but maybe things had changed. Perhaps he didn't even know Zander worked here (yes, he was still thinking about this ok). The blonde would have to give him the benefit of the doubt, yeah? Because it was the right thing to do... And he didn't really want to think of the implications had that not been the case. Maybe Kevin was trying to leave his past behind him and-- he wasn't thinking about it.

"It is," he assured his old school-mate. "He's the most famous muggle detective in the world." Well was. Honestly, Zander wasn't even sure if the dude was real, but if Kevin didn't know who Sherlock Holmes was it didn't really matter in the first place.

"You could start with hello?" he offered, teasing the dude. Flamsteed was a part of the reason why Kevin was expelled in the first place though... Maybe that's why the younger boy didn't know what he'd say. Zander had a different relationship with the man, obviously. At first it was difficult to trust him again because the expulsion was not something that settled well with young Adair. However, as the years went on... Zander had found an almost father-like figure in his head of house. And now he baby sat for the guy. Weird. So weird. "But it won't be as awkward as you think," he was speaking from experience here.

Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd yeah, exactly the reaction he thought he'd get. "Yeaaaaah," he laughed, mussing his hair. The nursery, he nodded to confirm. "Oh, thanks," the former Gryffindor let on a sheepish smile. Was it odd that he had been working here for longer, yet Kevin's the one who had to point him in the right direction? Nah, not weird.... Right??? It was probably a part of his training with the Law Enforcing Department or whatever. Had to know where everything was at all times. Or at least that's what Zander would tell himself to make him feel better about this situation. Lololol.

"No!" he laughed at the ridiculous question. Ridiculous not because it was outlandish, but because of the way it was framed. "An offspring?" he questioned. "You make it sound like kids are some science experiment or something!" But Zander didn't have children... Despite the desire to have them. Ahem.
