That made sense and Adrian nodded lightly, idly wondering if they would make a good team. As Aurors. He knew he was far too serious some times and could need to lighten up and Tonks might be the right one to do that. But work was serious in general and Auroring was certainly more serious business than most other occupations.
"A good thing. Getting to know the person you team up with a bit better before getting into sticky situations is important. So you don't have to worry about where the other is, or what either of your roles are, you just do it." That was the ultimate partnership in Adrian's mind. A team where you didn't have to communicate verbally in order to know. Because in many situations, there was just no time to discuss things or you had to keep quiet in order to catch the culprit.
