I am sorry if I seem too hard on you sometimes... I just think that the work area is for work. I don't mind introductions or talking with one another about ideas for the Department or tasks, but just chattering is unacceptable. That is why we have such lovely things set up in the corridors for. Have a talk out there, go to a breakroom. The work area is for work though." She then conjured a pink hanky and dabbed at her eyes. "I just want the Department to run as smoothly as possible," she said again through a sob. Chloe shook her head vigorously as Antigone apologized, and once she had finished, Chloe said, "You don't need to apologize. It was my fault. I mistakenly believed the conversation was over, and I should have been paying attention. Don't apologize. I was the one in the wrong." Chloe looked at Ronan for support, waiting for him to back her up. They had, after all, both gotten in trouble for the same act. He should speak up, right? Or was Chloe going to do all of the talking. Then she turned back to Antigone with a kind look in her eyes, "And as far as caring about you, you know that I am always here for you whenever you need me," she said quietly.
