He felt like he was back in Durmstrang, surrounded by hormonal teenagers crying foul about their less than satisfactory grade in his class. He was a hard man to please, driven by discipline and perfection. He did say he was infamous for it. "Well, if you weren't so busy criticising how I execute my work, you would've already noticed that Step Two has already been done, Miss Lewis. Mister Flamsteed has been stabilized, documented, and now cleared to be moved." Albert thought that if she were so smart, it would've done her good if she had observed him from the very beginning. But then again, not all were up to Albert's standards. What a shame.

Albert wasn't going to be optimistic about all of this, but it seemed that his mood was getting better by the minute. Her offer was too good to turn down. "Oh, that would be delightful." he continued, faking another smile as he watched her angst made known to everyone. Albert would've pressed on to tell that currently, Airey will have little to no memory at all about all of this ordeal considering that he has the mentality of a very large cat, as with all human transfigurations, but he thought it would be only a waste of his precious time, on account of the fact that Miss Lewis will clearly misinterpret it as bossing around. Besides, he did enjoy the sight of her talking to a human!animal.

Very well.

"That would be all, Miss Lewis." he said as he straightened his impeccable three-piece suit, and slowly made for the door as he discreetly noticed the tears that were forming in her eyes. Was this too much of a task then? Another wave of his wand was made and the broken shelves and merchandise were magically repaired and placed back into their assigned shelves...except for the decapitated plush toy Airey had between his paws. He wasn't that evil of a man to take it away from him. It could be his souvenir from this ordeal for all he cared. "I will meet you back in A&C then. Thank you." If she needed any help, all she has to do was to ask. Albert is a lone wolf when it comes to work, but if anyone needed his help, one can count on him otherwise, he wouldn't be on the scene 'helping out' if Mercy didn't ask for his expertise.


If the man had any idea how hard she was working to not roll her eyes at him, he would probably give her some sort of award. Her restraint was prize worthy. She did her absolute best to plaster on her 'smile and nod' face while he went on and on. When he finally stopped talking, she took a breath to further suppress her growing hostility towards the man, before answering through gritted teeth. "Fine. I'll get right on it." Exactly how, she still wasn't sure, but she would not be asking any more questions that might further their interaction.

Her eyes finally took over and the rolling began. If he could have seen her face, she would have probably been written up or fired on the spot. As luck would have it, his back was turned at that moment. Before she could grow any more disrespectful, Albert graciously flicked his wand and cleaned up the mess. If she hadn't been in such a state, she would have thanked him. "Yes, we shall meet you there."

She turned back to the caged Airey, wondering how in Merlin's beard she was going to get the giant cat out of the gift shop, let alone all the way to A&C. Bending down to be face to face with the cat, she spoke softly "Listen up, Mr. Flamsteed, we need to make a little journey to get you all fixed up. I need you to cooperate and not cause a big fuss. Can you do that for me?"

Ashery pulled out her wand as she stepped back from the cage. "Wingardium Leviosa" she commanded with a swish and flick towards the cage. It seemed to be the most humane way of traveling with the large cat.
