Jean-Claude inclines his head towards her in turn. Of course she is talking about Kenzi. He cannot help but feel that the bar is missing something in her absence. Of course, she had only been there a short while. But when she had been around she had brought a certain character to the place that is now left lacking.

"She did," he agrees. "Perhaps some day she will return to us. For now we must make do without her." He tilts his head at her, motioning her into the office and towards a chair if she would care to sit. "If you have another candidate in mind in the meanwhile, however, I am open to suggestions."

He knows, of course, that this is not what she came to discuss. But he will wait for her to bring it up first. Ever the gentleman indeed.
