Adrian turned from where he'd been straightening the shelving behind his counter and smiled at Hannah. She was such a friendly human being. He'd never known her before she took over the Leaky, but she and his wife were close and she was just so nice it was nearly impossible not to appreciate her. Even for an old grump like Adrian.
"That's so nice, thank you, Hannah," he said, accepting the tea and taking an appreciative sip. "Mmm, that's good," he told her before setting it on the counter. "Now, did you want speak in private? I have an office in the back, if you're more comfortable that way?"
