Angelo was on duty outside of January's office. Disillusioned.

Literally and literally.

He blended into the wall, not visible to those few who had hurried by in one direction or another, and contemplated this whole bodyguard thing. He took it seriously enough - death threats were no joke - but it also felt like a pretty mundane thing for a fully qualified auror to be doing. Or, actually, as he privately admitted to himself, maybe it was more about it feeling like a mundane thing for a Toussaint to be doing. He had grown up with bodyguards around his family - not for him specifically but in general, for all the children. His sisters still had bodyguards following them around, though he was sure only Aubrey had picked up on that and learned to slip away (he rarely worried about her, she was the most like him after all), and although she was grown, Katy had a permanent tail as a result of her unfortunate kidnapping incident that he, Dmitriy, and Bastien had needed to take care of. He had kept his slight distaste for this duty to himself... though there was no hiding it from Evangeline. She knew him too well.

That was the only good part about this duty actually- his partner had the same task, and they made a good team. Undeniably. She wasn't with him right now off course. When January was in a secure location like her office it was easy enough to take turns guarding her, they needed the both of them in public or open spaces or when January was on the move, but right now he was on his own while Evie was heading to a department-wide meeting on level 2. And truthfully? Bodyguard duty was preferable to meeting yet another department head. Angelo wondered what his take on the whole situation would be :he hadn't met the man yet. Maybe Evangeline would get a chance to talk to him privately about it while she was down there.
