She was happy to make sure the department didn’t burn down in the meantime.

Which was why, she was currently making sure that Eliora had all of the forms and paperwork she needed for any of the Department who did want to go into the Mist. ~~Had she mentioned that she wasn’t going?~~ While some of her cousins would have been in that Mist before it was even remotely safe, she was not them. Happily so. No. She was staying here.

She’d coordinate with Ruth and make sure the children were fed, bathed and put to bed at night if Eliora wasn’t back in time to do it. She had very important responsibilities both within the office and with making sure her boss’ children were safe. Which was all fine with her, this she could do. This, she was trained for.

Pulling herself out of her thoughts, she rapped her knuckles sharp and quick on Eliora’s door. “Just me.” She called out, “I have the paperwork you need before you leave.”

There was drowning and paperwork and then there was the thrill Eliora got from getting a new stack of information to devour. A new helping of tidbits and history. Looking up from her desk, Eliora smiled slightly at the sight of her friend and beckoned her in with a hand. "Start a new pile to the right for me? That way I can grab, bag and go." She'd always have paperwork with her on a job, especially coded details of everyone involved if she needed to take a head count and could quickly discover someone missing.

"Rusty has access to my office in my absence, okay?" This wasn't new news. It was well known that he was her second in command whether it was official or unofficial. He had been her best friend for years and they knew how one another worked. He was the logic behind many of her decisions and she delivered the judgement about all of his choices. "He's first port of call if anything happens. He knows how this department runs sometimes better than I do. You do anything he needs, wants or asks for. If he tells you something's happened, I want you to go to my house and look after my kids until I can come home." Because she was coming home. She wasn't going to verbalise the plans for if she didn't.

But Giulia knew where the paperwork was located if she needed it.
