"I think better at my apartment when it comes to work. There's less noise involved. I'm interrupted less too." He had an easier time writing his reports in his apartment too. If there was anything that Vali had in his apartment that was the most stereotypical though. It was a cork board dedicated to his work, and a police radio.
He'd probably complain at first if he got dragged out to do something unrelated to work.
He smirked lightly in response to the sarcasm, though his smirk did twitch a little. "You'll probably win Mom of the year." He retorted, reaching over and ruffling Leon's hair as he chuckled.
"Feels more like I'm a babysitter keeping everyone from killing each other, rather than a General of a military squad." He sighed a little lowering his hand, "They made it sound so much simpler back at the academy." He remarked.
Vali stared at Leon for a moment, noticing only the nod he received rather than hearing more reasons for him to be keeping tabs. "It sounds like you agree with me then." He remarked, a soft chuckle escaping him. "Good to hear."
He glanced away to stare out ahead of him, his eyes darkening only slightly, not out of anger, but definitely a lot more somber than before. "We can't be too careful with who we trust these days. Spies come in all shapes and sizes, I'm sure even the gangs are starting to use them to their advantage. If they collapse from the inside it makes our jobs easier, but not if their spies are sent our way." He combed his fingers through his pale hair before he resumed walking.

  "Can't blame you on that." Leon said with a small shrug. He preferred to do most of his work when alone for the reason of less distractions and not to mention, no worries over flipping out on anyone. Actually the office had less distractions as Leon often found himself able to sit still in his own apartment. Avoiding people in the office was intensive to sit still."But also, your living space shouldn't just double as your work space and just that."Leon commented. That probably gave Vali more reason to compare him to a nagging wife. But the concern was there regardless of how Vali felt about it.
Leon's facial expression turned to more of a displeased one and slightly scrunched up to resemble a pissed off cat,"as if,"he hissed, swatting away Vali's hand.
Though that small bit of anger seemed to disappear with a small huff as Vali spoke once more."Yeah well, you know what they say about training for your job versus actually being in it. Forget everything you know."he said waving his hand in the air as if he was discarding it.
"Mhm, there are more but that just happen to be the main one if anything."He said with a small sigh and fixed his hair from when Vali messed with it.
What Vali said next was a little more unexpected, though more of how he presented himself. Leon knew where it came from, but he didn't think that Vali would go back there in public like this."Yeah. Thing is we'd have to move out of Zildo if we want any hopes of catching any of that in it's tracks because I doubt we'll find anything lurking around here just yet. The gangs know better. It's just a matter of getting permission. "Leon sighed, knowing just how much of a b***h that was to get. Right now they were just sitting around waiting for something to happen rather than going out and gaining some kind of advantage.

He leaned against the wall, his arms crossed as he stared out at the activity in the streets. Not that there was much of it, most people were starting to head home at this time, it was getting late after all.
"I don't have enough space at my desk back in the office to do everything I need to. Having a small portion of my apartment dedicated to my work isn't a problem. There are people out there who take their work home with them." He remarked, glancing at Leon then back out to the streets, a small amused smirk on his lips by the response he received from him.
"Haha, sometimes when you're angry with me you look like a cat." He teased in a low tone. He nodded his head, glancing over the streets again. "You're right, no amount of training can ever prepare us for this kind of job. No one can count for all of the variables." He agreed, then gave another nod.
"Alright, anyone else I should be worried about?" He asked, better to make certain he's keep close tabs on the right people for the right reasons.
He looked back out to the streets, sighing softly. "That's why we have mercenaries like the Xanthos brothers. What movements we can't make on our own we can send them out to do. We can't just send them out blindly though. If we send someone out into one of the other cities I want it to be because of more than just some hunch." A thought did cross his mind, it had crossed his mind before several times. His purple eyes briefly lighting up with it before darkening.
He could try and extend his patrols to the outskirts of the connected cities. Hinas was one he could stroll through as well. It was still neutral territory, not yet within their control. Something like that could put his job at risk, as much as it could put his life at risk. He'd rather risk his own life than his squads. "I won't risk your lives on a hunch." The words had been more of a murmur, he hadn't even realized he had said it.

While Leon knew the paths that Vali took,but he never actually went on any on them until now. At least he could see why Vali kept to the same one's the way he did.
"This might sound surprising, but those people also have hobbies other than just doing work at home."Leon pointed out, giving Vali a look.That seemed to be happening a lot today. Then again they usually ended up at this conversation one way or another.
Leon proceeded to make all sorts of angry, grumble like noises."Where do you think the nickname came from wise guy?"He then covered his face to avoid any other facial expressions that might lead to Vali saying more about it. Leon knew that he could punch the guy to get him to shut up about it and have it be fine and dandy. But he was on patrol. Technically they both were. Leon wouldn't report it unless Vali forced him to."Not to mention there is all that extra s**t that happens in between."He said, removing his hands from his face now that he was fine again.Still irritated, but fine.
Leon raised a brow at Vali. It was a little odd that Vali would get this paranoid so soon."Unless you count Kieran possibly disassembling Stardust as one of those things- then there isn't anyone else that comes to mind as of now."He said with a shrug before moving over to where Vali was.
For a moment he watched Vali then looked over at the streets, curious to what else might be going through his mind right now. "Argh, I know! It pisses me off that we have to wait for something to happen before doing anything about it."He said letting out a heavy sigh. Sure it was dangerous going out blindly like that, especially if it wasn't off much. But it was also annoying sitting around and doing next to nothing. 'Sorry your house caught on fire because of a gang Mrs. James, but we needed that to happen to confirm any gang activity'. It was a load of s**t that put him on edge. That being said Leon was already messing with one of the rings he had to help keep his hands busy if needed.
The two sat in silence for about a minuet there until Vali said something that Leon didn't quite catch.

He remarked, catching the look he was receiving again. "Leon if you keep giving me that look your face will eventually get stuck like that." He teased lightly.
Vali wouldn't admit to the fact, he was a little surprised Leon hadn't punched him yet for some of his comments. Though he chalked it up to the fact that Leon knew Vali's tastes well enough that it wouldn't phase him. "I don't know, you could have just really liked cats for all I knew." He answered, reaching over and fixing a few strands of Leon's hair that were still sticking out of place that he missed. "Mmhmm." He agreed without a word, lowering his hand again.
He wasn't paranoid just yet, cautious was one thing, paranoid was something entirely different. "That's not something I'm too worried about." He paused a moment, seeming to think something over. "Thank you, for telling me though." Another rare moment for Vali really.
"There's nothing we can do about it Leon. I understand it's frustrating, but until we're given approval from the higher up's, we can't start extending our patrols further." He frowned slightly, thinking about it always upset him.
He waited awhile longer, until the activity seemed to die out almost completely on the street, and he pushed off the wall. After all, most people's lunch breaks would have been over by now. "I've finished my patrol for now. Are you coming back with me to Headquarters? Or should I just expect you at my apartment?" Vali's brow quirked as he looked to Leon for his answer.

Leon silently cursed at Vali and turned to look at something else."Maybe if it did you'd take care of yourself better."He retorted, crossing his arms then uncrossed them again. He wasn't sure why he did that. Perhaps "disappointed father" type look? If so it wasn't working.
"They would have called me crazy cat person or cat man, some s**t like that if that was the case."Leon said, swatting Vali's hand away again. Maybe he should just punch him anyway. To bad Vali would enjoy it, which kind of took away from it. Regardless Vali was starting to piss him off, that is if he wasn't already as is.
Leon let out a small huff."I know, its just- I swear to god if they dont decide on at least something I'm going to-"lose my god damn mind. But he decided to just drop it. There was no point in yelling about it any further. Neither of them would be able to do anything about it until they had more to go off of. And who knew when that would be.
"Your apartment, I don't feel like going back to headquarters."Leon said, moving away from the wall to go over to Vali's. While he could go back to headquarters, someone there would probably set him off again and he didn't feel like cleaning up another mess.

"Hmm, maybe I should get you a cat for your birthday then. Any breed preferences?" He smirked softly as he offered the taunting suggestion. Not minding his hand having been swatted away.
"I know. You don't have to say it." He reassured him, giving his friends back a pat before he started to walk back towards Headquarters. Calm and collected as usual, he would need to use the entire walk back to regain his composure completely.
"I'll see you there then Leon. I shouldn't be long unless someone gives me a reason to stay longer than normal." He called over his shoulder to him, his golden eye lighting up slightly.

"Huh, guess i'll have to try harder or force you too."Leon teased. That could be taken out of context, not so terribly but still. If anyone were listening to the whole conversation they would be getting mixed signals on what was going on between the too. That or be confused on their relationship.
Leon frowned and grabbed the bridge of Vali's nose,"one that can claw your face off, a*****e." He scolded before letting him go.
He gave Vali a small nod."Yeah. See you then." Leon responded before taking his leave as well.

"You are an ocean of waves, weaving a dream, like thoughts become a river stream" tab tab tab tab tab :taAmbrosios ☪ Dai tab tab tab tab tab :ta━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Ambrosios had spent all morning and most of the afternoon dealing with all sorts of different paper work and people. Not like he could complain all to much when it was his job, but still he was not looking forward to when things started to get busy. At least when there was more activity anywhere. Sure he mainly kept track of Zlido, but he had enough say in what the military did. Which meant more paper work....It was going to start to get restless. That much he could already tell.
With a small content sigh he hid his arms within his sleeves as he walked along the city streets. No destination in particular. For now he would take this time off for himself before he was called in for something else.
It was nice just walking around like this. He had time to collect his thoughts without the constant chatter of his secretary or phones ringing from various parts of the building. At least out here it was just background noise that added to his walk rather than took away from it. There was just something pleasant about it that made it easy to tune out, but at the same time actively pay attention to what was going on. It truly was lovely.
As he carried on less people were around, having got of work themselves while other's were just out and about, much like himself. With a soft smile he gazed up at the sky for a bit before his attention quickly drifted to a few people here are there.
"There are some words that go here"

● Devlin had used the short time he had for his break to go out and buy some lunch from a convenience store. It was amazing that he had enough money to do that now! In school he basically had to live off of pb and j. Not like he minded, it was a delicious sandwich combination. He still had to get back to work, though, which meant running back, bag in hand, smiling like he'd just won the lottery. When he saw a familiar figure dressed in blue, he felt like he really had. If there was any person he would always be happy to see, it was the Governor.
Delin's appreciation for Ambrosios, the governor, was endless. The man had basically given him his dream job, and he'd had it longer than any other job before! He even felt like he was getting better at using his Lucky Charm because of it. Not to mention he was finally making enough to send a good amount of money back to his family. His brothers and sisters finally got their first game console! It's been kinda busted up, and they only have one game, but he hadn't seen them so excited in his life. He was on top of the world! "Hey! Boss!" Devlin called, running up to Ambrosios with a grin the size of the city itself. His foot snagged on the back of his ankle as he got close enough to Ambrosios to have it matter. "Wu-Whooa!" he helped. Suddenly, instead of being on top of the world, he was heading face first for the concrete.

Having not actually been fully paying attention to his surroundings and his thoughts else where he completely stopped walking to prepare himself for whatever troubles Devlin was about to bring with him. The kid was kind, but he was also a riot.
Having noticed Devlin's foot snagging on the other, Ambrosios quickly moved forward to catch the kid before he fell. Technically he wasn't, but the man acted like an excited child and not to mention anyone who wasn't at least five hundred was a child. "You don't have to call me boss, especially when you're on your break." Ambrosios smiled gently, helping the other regain his balance."Ammy will do just fine outside of work."

● Devlin was surprised, to say the least, when he was caught. Ambrosios was stronger than he looked. He thought he was going to break his sunglasses again, but looks like he got lucky! Today really was a good day. Devlin righted himself with his boss' help, absolutely beaming at him. It was as if he'd wanted nothing else but to see Ambrosios that day. Then again, Devlin looked like that to almost everyone he met. But what his boss said made him gasp a bit. This had never happened to him before. He wasn't sure what to do. He barely even got a smile from most of his bosses!
"Uh, B-buh-" He stammered, going stock still and staring up at Ambrosios. He couldn't! Not even just his name, a nickname! Was he testing him? Was this a test to see if he could be trusted? Was it a trick? Was Ammy not a real nickname. Devlin was sweating bullets. "You- I mean, but- I- um. UM. A-Ammy! Right! Ha ha,"he laughed nervously, a fake smiled plastered on his face, one that somehow exceeded his normal one in length, as he waited for something to happen. Some scolding for being too casual. It must be a test. I can't call someone so older than me by their nickname! Devlin looked like he was about to explode from anticipation of Ambrosios' next words.

"You are an ocean of waves, weaving a dream, like thoughts become a river stream" tab tab tab tab tab :taAmbrosios ☪ Dai tab tab tab tab tab :ta━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Ambrosios watched Devlin, realizing that the kid was probably unfamiliar with this sort of informality with previous bosses. To encourage him, he smiled once more and nodded slightly until Devlin finally said it."That sounds better. I actually hate formalities." Ambrosios admitted with a light laugh. After living so long he saw less and less on being formal and up tight. All it did was separated people from one another. Some would argue its all about respect, but that went much further than titles and such. At least that how he felt about it. Even then...boss isn't probably something you should call your boss anyway....
Motioning in front of him, Ambrosios gave another warm smile."Care to join me for a walk? Understandably so if you have places you'd like to be."He offered. A walk was more enjoyable with a companion. Above that Devlin was a cheery guy who was nice to have around regardless.

● Devlin went from completely rigid to entirely relaxed when Ambrosios gave him the okay. He let out another laugh, this time less nervous than before. It was much more bubbly. "Oh! Then I'm glad to not do something you hate, hahaha!" A wide smile spread across his face again, genuine of course, and he couldn't have been happier in that moment. Or, well, he thought he couldn't, but then Ambrosios invited him along for his walk. His eyes sparkled with joy, and he shifted giddily from foot to foot. Ambrosios was a bright star, and he was completely startstruck "I'd love you! I mean to! I'd love to!" Devlin beamed, even though he stumbled over his words like a highschool girl. It happened more often than you'd think, so he'd come to terms with it already.
"The only thing I had to do was eat lunch! And I have lunch." He held up the bag, proving the fact that lunch had been acquired. "If you want, I'll share what I have. It's nothing fancy for you I'm sure, but I got, uh," Devlin rummaged through the plastic bag pulling out a wrap he'd bought, which a strange bumped out of his hands. The wrap was safe, it was in a plastic container, but Devlin yelped anyway, dropping his stuff to catch the rogue wrap. From his bag, an orange rolled out in the other direction. He dove to catch it, nervous exclamations spilling out of is mouth. He stuffed everything in the bag and collected himself, smiling sheepishly at Ambrosios. "Um I have a salad too?" He offered.

"You are an ocean of waves, weaving a dream, like thoughts become a river stream" tab tab tab tab tab :taAmbrosios ☪ Dai tab tab tab tab tab :ta━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Ambrosios covered his mouth with his sleeve as he laughed at Devlin's response. Humans were adorable, though he hadn't quite met someone as eccentric as this child. Though with how carefree the man was, he felt as if he had to protect him. From everything. Well there was more reason to protect him other than his easy going personality.
"Oh, no i've already ea- oh dear."He would have helped the poor guy but he was everywhere on trying to pick everything up. At this point Ambrosios was certain that someone in Devlin's ancestry was cursed. Maybe he could find something for the poor kid to counter his rather unlucky streak. " How about we sit down for a bit?"He offered, leading Devlin over to one of the outside seating of a cafe to avoid any other mishaps.Though with this child one was bound to happen anyway.
Not wanting to use their seating without ordering anything, Ambrosios went inside for a bit and came back with a cup of green tea and a neatly wrapped slice of cheesecake. " I should have asked but hopefully this is alright?" He asked, handing the small box to Devlin.
