◢ ♕ — "Oh, Miss Snow. How wonderful to see you up and working so early. I was worried I'd have to wait around the office for someone to show up, and you do know how much I h a t e to wait around. No quicker way to get on my bad side than to waste my time, after all." Lumi's lips curved into an amused smirk as she barged into the office, not bothering to ask for permission -- or to ask if there was even time for her at current. As she came towards the other woman, the trail of snow behind her began to disappear; how terrible rude of her it'd be to track that into a place of work. "I've need of your ear, and surely you have time to lend it to me."

                     It wouldn't be easy to deny him such things, after all, as recent events                      proved it seemed infinitely true that any encounter with Snow has led                      to some form of fragility between him and her or, in all truths and terms,                      placed a  slightly more neutral level for the two. Even so, as his words                      slipped out there was moment of regret; rather questionable.

"I think you're supposed to knock. Not climb through the window."
