A coffee machine is the heart of our Office? And here I thought it was the people in it. [ He sounds vaguely amused as he goes around putting things back upright. He grabs a broom and starts to sweep out the broken glass. ]
People are important--[He snatches up a broom of his own, getting to work on cleaning up with a little more force than is strictly necessary]--but those people need fuel! I need my caffeine, Ekke!
Fair, fair. [ It's not as if he doesn't go through a fair amount himself, though his job ensures that he gets some sleep, at least. ]
Did they destroy anything we can't replace? [ He leaves the broom for the moment, picking up the scraps of shredded reports and files. ] I don't recognise some of these.
You've probably done more paperwork than I ever did...I suppose we'll find out when we add it all up at the end.[ He has a reasonable memory for text, but he might just not have read these ones yet. There's a lot to go through. ]
I could probably add something to this Office to make sure this doesn't happen again. Or, at least, it'll deter most people from trying. With your permission, of course. [ He glances at Avery. ]

[He grumbles to himself under his breath as he sweeps some splinters of shattered wood off to the side.]
I did do some work before you came along, you know. Unless you already read those files?
[Did something get mixed in?]
