“ Good morning Branch Chief Faba! “

“ Good morning y— “

Huh.

“ What do you call me??? “

“ …Branch Chie— “

“ Yes!! Yes! Finally!, “

Faba shot up from his comfy desk chair, eyes sparkling.

“ Someone below who actually respects me. This is why your my assistant. You’re not as slow as you look, child. “

Faba roughly pat your head— He didn’t have any real experience with children so he didn’t know how to be… gentle. Exactly.

“ Oh, and good morning to you too. “

He sat back down at his desk still looking all high-up and happy with himself, he then looked over his shoulder to you.

“ Grab us some coffees will you? I’ll give you my card for the cafeteria. Then we can tackle this horrid paperwork… “

Faba’s eyes drifted to a stack of papers— He scoffed. You wanted to scoff too… ugh. Paperwork. Not what you had signed up for when you wanted to do an apprenticeship with the Aether Foundation.
