"Well, it could have been worse. I mean she-"
"They were pink grandma panties with red polka dots and she took photos and put them all over the cafeteria man! I'm ruined! RUINED!"
Between Ryan getting distracted, Circe had slipped out of the trainee's grasp, instead resting contentedly on his head. She clearly wasn't going anywhere anytime soon, not until this one-sided drama was over.
"My life is over," the Hunter monologued, "And what's more she blackmailed me, apparently she has even more photos. She even has photos of my little timmy."
Awkward silence. "Well, uh. How about I finish this report and you go down and uh, resolve your little timmy problems-"
-"No man. I'm done. I am clean and done. From now on, I will only date ladies whom I have had wholesome and clean sex with. That is my new goal. That is my new goal."
"Yeah, well good luck finding one of those."
"Are you saying that - " Thump. Pause. "Did you hear that?"
"Hear what?"
"... I could have sworn, wait is there someone in Caelius's office." The sound of footsteps grew closer towards the door. "Mark if you are spying on us I am going to tear you in half, kill you, and then tear you in half again."

Just what were they even talking about? Wait. No. He didn't want to know. Though in spite of this decision, he leaned in closer to the door, with Circe perched atop his head. Who apparently, was just as curious as he was.
Though it only lasted for so long before--
Thump
Immediately Ryan backed away from the door. A startled look on his face. He had heard it too, but he didn't know who or what caused i--
--Oh s**t they were coming!
All at once, Ryan snatched the winged totem from off his head, forgetting that even if she was found, she was meant to be here and darted back to the far corner of the office.
Now was a really good time to hide!

An unfamiliar pace dipped into the doorframe, suspiciously looking closer towards -
- "Dude, are you trying to get in even more hot water? He's gonna come back any second!"
The face popped back out. "How do you know? I was just making sure-"
"Trust me, I know. Come on, let's get you cleaned up and stuff and we'll figure out what to do with these reports later on. I'll take one for you, just this time."
The two voices thankfully got more and more faint.
Ryan would feel a light rustling on his head as the object of much of his grief settled back down on her regular desk position, wings folded under either side of her. She regarded him with a sort of humour entirely devoid of in her usual counterpart: a strangely amused look considering that in her current form, she was nothing more than a glorified floating eyeball with wings. The gaze turned to the door and the intent clear. Maybe Ryan had long outstayed his welcome.

Ryan froze where he was, unable to move even an inch.
This was it. They were going to find out he was here and while he wasn't sure they weren't going to tear him in half like they were Mark, they would more than likely turn him over to Caelius. Or that's what he thought. The door creaked open, but just as soon as they popped their face in the door, they popped it back out again, called back by their friend before they could even spot him.
S-safe.
With the entertainment gone now, Circe fluttered back down to the desk, returning to the way she had been when he first entered the office. Though the look of amusement remained. Curious since there hadn't been any physical change in her ah... could he call that a face? However, she also made it clear that now was time to leave and with 'him' returning, Ryan wasn't going to argue that point. So with one last curious look at Circe, Ryan quietly slipped back out of the office and left.
Hopefully Caelius wouldn't notice the files out of place.
