Apparently lying was becoming a thing. Or at least most of a thing. Although he had actually stopped in at his lab this morning to pick up a few of his personal affects. There wasn't a lot of material that he was allowed to take in or out of the Department of Mystery, but Eli certainly knew exactly where those lines were and how much he could push them. Technically, he could have pursued this particular venture under proper channels, but at the moment it was more a personal interest than a professional one. And really, taking it home with him made it easier to bring Roger into the mix.

Eli couldn't be sure how long that Samara would be out with Jason, but he probably had a few hours. It was more than enough time to get through whatever he needed with Roger and then start in on the promise of drinks. She could fuss about that, but drinking was probably better than being caught meddling with what they had been fighting over just last night right there on this very desk. To anyone else, the room didn't look any different, but Eli was sure if felt off.

Only that didn't matter. Not in the long run. Right now, his study was the best place for this. He just needed to activate the wards on the room and it was most secure room in the house. And with the pensieve set up in here, it was all he needed.

"I've been wondering when you'd get here," he called hearing someone in the house. Really, the only person it could have been was Roger anyone else, Eli had hexed an alert to warn him. "I'm in the study."
