"Kaiser!" he boomed as he doubled back to the Scribe's side, gesturing with his sandwich to the boy. "Look, it's you!"

Har har, a classic dad joke if there ever was one. Fletcher grinned proudly and held out the memos to Kaiser. "Could you hold these for a sec? You're not on break, are you? I won't take away your lunchtime lurking if you are." But if he wasn't on break, then Fletcher was certainly going to borrow him for a bit. He seldom could steal away the lad from Charles so this was what one might call a golden opportunity.... at the golden gates.

Let it be known that Kaiser - even with all said and done - was not a jumpy person. Generally speaking, not a jumpy person at all. Exceptions were made for... booming. Kaiser had been aware of Fletcher in the general vicinity (people watching, it sort of entailed watching nearby people) but... well, everyone had off days.

So he'd started, just a bit, and quickly attempted to recover. Funny how the initial follow-up to surprise was pretending no surprise had occurred. "Mr. Fletch-"

Sandwich. He was being called a-

... Oh. Right. The... right.

Kaiser gave a short laugh - a that-was-terrible-and-we-both-know-it-but-it's-sort-of-funny-in-spite-of-that kind of laugh - and held out a hand to take hold of the memos. "Sure." Lurking? Kaiser? ... Well, yeah. "I try to keep the lurking separate to my work...ing." Oof. Unintentional rhyming, no thank you. "So I am on break, but..." He tilted his arm, hitched his sleeve up just enough to take a quick look at his watch. "... only for the next... ahh... six minutes. Or so."

Perfect opportunity for Kaiser stealing, if only anyone out there were interested in such a thing.
