Anyway.

The redhead smiled fondly at him at his offer. "I appreciate the offer. A lot of it is... confidential material, but if I come across some things that aren't so, I'll flag you down." He was like a little golden retriever, always wanted to be helpful. How cute. January waved him in a little further. "Please, have a seat. What can I do for you?" Because she was probably as eager to help him as he was to help her.

"Of course," duh, confidential. What could a Nursery Attendant possibly do to help the DEPARTMENT HEAD of the MINISTER OF MAGIC'S office????? Not a whole lot, probably. Except babysitting. That particular fell under his job description, actually.

But this wasn't the point.

The point was he was going to sit down now, smiling at January and crossing ankles. One over the other. What could she do for him today? Well. "My partner and I are..." Pregnant? No. That made it sound like they were BOTH pregnant. Which they definitely were not. "We're expecting a baby in January," the month, obviously. Ahem. "And I wanted to speak to you about possible paternity leave? We'll both be first time parents and I know lots about kids, but raising one full time sure is different than keeping them for a few hours and handing them off after office hours..."

Y'know?

This was mortifying. Why did he feel like he was asking for SO MUCH!!
