Gabriel's enthusiasm was endearing. Reminded Jake of why he had, all those years ago, wanted to get into working with young people, guiding them, finding them a passion with the aim of helping them to stay out of trouble. Still was what he wanted to do, really, and sometimes he did it, but the mentoring gig was not nearly as steady as Auror...ing, which was extremely demanding in and of itself. Jake's time and attention had to be pulled every which way what with the job and the million kids - and the older they got, all of them, the more he worried about them - so that had gone on the back burner for a while. Until someone was referred to him, at least. But there was still the opportunity to guide the Law Enforcement kids, the younger employees, when and where he could, when and where they were happy to let him.
"Brilliant," he said, smiling back. "I'll look for you at work. We can arrange it or just grab an opportunity that crops up." Always plenty happening, always something to jump into. But for now, yes, moving on. Jake had to continue on the quest for his grandson's Sneakoscope, and he supposed he should also be a responsible parent, and usher his children along with him. "You too, Melo. Enjoy your abacus."
Luckily(?), before he could think too long on that sentence, he heard something that sounded suspiciously like a shelf full of Everlasting Candles, plus two four year olds, crashing to the ground behind him. Sighing heavily and rattling off a quick goodbye to the young YATI, Jake turned and strode back to his children, who had apparently tried to turn Wiseacres into their own personal climbing frame.
