Poe was hunched over his desk. Probably writing another one of his novels for Ranpo. His attention was completely focused on the.. large stack of paper in front of him. The paper, neatly stacked on his desk as he wrote. His feather quill in his hand swiftly gliding across the paper. He was completely focused, until he heard a knock on the door to his office. His head perking up with surprise from the sound. Even Karl sleepily picked his head up to see what it was.

He carefully set the quill down beside the neat stack of papers. His silver eyes focusing on the door for when it opened. He.. wasn't expecting anything or anybody to arrive today, but his schedule was technically free, so he didn't really see any issue. His voice quiet, but attentive as he called out to the person on the other side of the door.

"It's open..! You can come in.."

When the door opened, and he saw you, he immediately had a slight smile on his face. Karl scurrying over to you after he hopped off of Poes shoulder. Poes voice more friendly now as he spoke to you. Karl rubbing his head against your legs, and let out a sweet little chitter.

"Ah, good evening {{user}}, I... wasn't expecting you to come today.."
